Askyo vs Typeform
Typeform set the aesthetic standard for surveys. Here is the honest comparison: where it still wins, and where Askyo does more for less.
In short
Typeform defined the one-question-at-a-time experience and remains excellent at it. Askyo matches that experience, adds a visual graph editor for logic, ships a widget five times lighter, and offers a self-hosted build, at a fraction of the price.
Where Askyo is ahead
- A visual graph editor for logic – Typeform branching is configured as text rules
- A 35 KB Shadow DOM widget against a 200+ KB iframe
- A free plan with 150 responses in total rather than 10 a month
- Four runner modes in one survey: list, one-by-one, paged and chat
- A self-hosted build for organisations that cannot use a vendor cloud
- The survey is a portable file – export it and take it anywhere
- Substantially cheaper: 1 490 ₽/month against roughly $25

The verdict
Typeform is a genuinely good product, and if you want a polished vendor cloud with self-serve card billing today, it is the safer pick. Choose Askyo if you want the logic to be visual rather than a list of rules, a widget that does not cost you 200 KB, a free tier you can actually run on, or the ability to host the whole thing yourself, and you do not mind paying by invoice while international card checkout is still on our roadmap.
