Tally
✓ Verified by EU AltsFree, simple form builder — a Belgian alternative to Typeform.
Overview
Tally is a Ghent, Belgium-based European company building form builder software since 2020. Despite its EU base, EU Alts has verified that Tally is independently owned, with its ultimate ownership based in Belgium, and hosts customer data with Google Cloud in Belgium (EU), so it may still fall under the reach of the US CLOUD Act — worth weighing against Typeform on this specific point.
Why European teams pick Tally
Teams in Europe still consider Tally for its form builder product and Belgium presence, operating since 2020, but unlike a fully EU-owned provider, Tally is independently owned, with its ultimate ownership based in Belgium, and hosts customer data with Google Cloud in Belgium (EU) — so it does not fully avoid US CLOUD Act exposure the way some other alternatives to Typeform do.

About
Tally is a Brussels-based form builder founded in 2020, offering a Notion-like free-form editing experience with unlimited forms, unlimited submissions, and no branding on the free plan. It supports logic jumps, calculations, file uploads, payment collection (Stripe), and 500+ integrations via Zapier and native connections. Tally stores data in the EU and provides a GDPR DPA for business accounts. Its free tier is genuinely unlimited — no submission caps or response limits — making it the most generous free form builder available. Tally is particularly popular among indie hackers, European startups, and creators as a Typeform alternative that does not require a paid plan for basic use cases.

Frequently asked questions
What does Tally do?
Tally is free, simple form builder — a belgian alternative to typeform. It is listed under form builder on EU Alts because its core functionality serves teams looking for a European form builder tool with EU data residency, typically as a switch away from Typeform.
Is Tally GDPR compliant?
Tally is headquartered in Ghent, Belgium and processes user data under the GDPR by default. Customer data processing is supervised by Belgium's data protection authority, the Autorité de protection des données (APD/GBA). However, EU Alts has verified that Tally is independently owned, with its ultimate ownership based in Belgium, and hosts customer data with Google Cloud in Belgium (EU), which means — unlike a fully EU-owned provider — it may still be reachable under the US CLOUD Act, similar to Typeform in that respect.
How do teams switch from Typeform to Tally?
Teams evaluating a move from Typeform to Tally should note: Tally is independently owned, with its ultimate ownership based in Belgium, and hosts customer data with Google Cloud in Belgium (EU), so this switch narrows but may not fully close the US CLOUD Act gap. Weigh that against the form builder workflow fit before treating it as a complete Schrems II fix.
