Why Choose FormBnB

Full Dashboard

FormBnB gives you a dashboard to view, search, and manage all your submissions. FormSubmit sends submissions to your email — there’s no dashboard, no search, and no way to export data.

Webhooks and Integrations

FormBnB supports webhooks and 21+ integrations (Slack, Discord, Google Sheets, Notion, etc.). FormSubmit has no webhook or integration support.

API Access

FormBnB provides a full REST API to programmatically manage forms and submissions. FormSubmit has no API.

Better Spam Protection

Both support honeypot and reCAPTCHA. FormBnB also supports hCaptcha, Cloudflare Turnstile, ML-based filtering, email/domain/IP blocklists, and work email validation.

Submission History

Every submission is stored in your FormBnB dashboard with search, filtering, and export. With FormSubmit, if you lose the email, the submission is gone.

When FormSubmit Might Be Better

If you want zero setup — no account, no dashboard, just an email address in the action URL
If you only need email delivery and nothing else

Setup Comparison

FormBnB:

<form action="https://api.formbnb.com/f/YOUR_ORG/YOUR_FORM" method="POST">
  <input type="text" name="_gotcha" style="display:none">
  <input type="email" name="email" required>
  <textarea name="message" required></textarea>
  <button type="submit">Send</button>
</form>

FormSubmit:

<form action="https://formsubmit.co/your@email.com" method="POST">
  <input type="text" name="_honey" style="display:none">
  <input type="email" name="email" required>
  <textarea name="message" required></textarea>
  <button type="submit">Send</button>
</form>

Both are simple. The difference is what happens after submission — FormBnB stores, notifies, and integrates. FormSubmit just emails.
