Last Friday, we’ve released Formbox, our form-backend as a service. After using Formbox for more than six months internally, we’ve decided to make the tool available for everyone.
Formbox is an easy way add a backend to your website’s forms. It includes things like an administrative interface, SPAM protection, Slack/e-mail notifications and backups.
At Firmhouse, We have been creating quite some websites that include forms for signing up for events or beta lists. Setting up a backend for these forms that stores entries and notifies our team felt like a repetitive and trivial process. The existing tools did not fit our needs, so we decided to "scratch our own itch" and build a little service ourselves.
Read the full story on the Formbox blog.
Formbox and all of its features are free to use for a single form, so I invite you to try it out!
Do you have any question or suggestions, please let me know! You can reach via email on joshua@firmhouse.com on Twitter via @joshuajansen

Summer '26 release: The Retention Edition
Black Friday is eleven weeks away. Most of the subscribers you win that week will decide in January whether they stay. Over the summer we built four capabilities that work together on exactly that: a new Klaviyo integration, Offers, Workflows, and a visual builder for Customer Portal v2. All four are in early access.
