A Typeform Alternative With Real Privacy

Typeform is known for polished experiences. Cyphorm is for teams that need the host to be unable to read submissions.

The trust-model difference

Typeform builds beautifully interactive forms with logic jumps, integrations, and analytics. Their infrastructure encrypts data in transit and at rest on their servers. However, Typeform operates the application that processes your responses—meaning their systems can access submission content for features like email notifications, analytics, and support tooling.

Cyphorm takes a different architectural approach: every submission is encrypted in the respondent's browser using your RSA public key before it touches the network. We store only ciphertext. Your private key never leaves your device, so we are mathematically excluded from the decryption path.

Where Cyphorm wins

Mathematical separation from respondent content; predictable Web Crypto architecture; no Web3 baggage. If your use case involves privileged intake, whistleblower reporting, or sensitive HR feedback, the trust boundary matters more than design polish.

Where Typeform wins

Design polish, brand recognition, and a large integration ecosystem for conventional (non–zero-knowledge) use cases. Typeform's interactive, one-question-at-a-time experience is hard to beat for surveys where confidentiality from the host is not a requirement.
