A Typeform alternative for developers and AI agents

Comparisons

Typeform and QuizGen solve the same basic problem — ask people questions, collect answers — from opposite directions.

The actual difference

Typeform starts from a visual editor: you open the builder, arrange question cards, pick fonts and backgrounds, then publish. It's built for a human to design one form carefully.

QuizGen starts from a JSON definition — written by you, or by an AI assistant on your behalf — and skips the editor. POST the definition, get back a live quizgen.dev/q/... link. There's a dashboard for humans who want one, but nothing requires opening it.

Where each one wins

Pick Typeform if the form itself is a design deliverable — heavy branding, video backgrounds, a specific visual feel a client will judge.

Pick QuizGen if you want:

  • An AI assistant to build the form for you. Point Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor at quizgen.dev/llms.txt or the MCP server and describe what you want to ask.
  • Scoring built in, not bolted on. outcomes with point-based buckets for lead qualification or "which X are you?" quizzes, no separate logic add-on.
  • A form to exist without an account first. No Authorization header → an instant sandbox link, live for 72 hours and capped at 10 responses, claimable later.
  • A real API and JSON Schema, published at quizgen.dev/schema/v1.json, so a form definition can live in your own codebase and CI instead of only inside someone else's editor.

Try the comparison yourself

curl -X POST https://quizgen.dev/api/v1/quizzes \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data '{ "schema_version": 1, "title": "Coffee or tea?",
    "sections": [ { "key": "main", "questions": [
      { "id": "pick", "type": "choice", "prompt": "Coffee or tea?",
        "options": [ { "value": "coffee", "label": "Coffee" },
                     { "value": "tea", "label": "Tea" } ] } ] } ] }'
