Switch to ScatterSpoke if you're paying for responses and still reading “fine” and “good”: you need the why. Spoke interviews each person, asks a follow-up about what they just said, and gives you the answer with the quotes behind it. Stay with Typeform if you need designed lead forms, quizzes, deep logic, video questions or embedded flows; that's what it's built for. Classic surveys here are free and unlimited, and your first ten agent surveys are free, so you can run one question both ways before you decide.
“Good” hides both the thing to keep (the honest panel) and the thing to fix (a workshop room too small for the crowd it drew).
Typeform is a form builder with a conversational look: one designed screen at a time, logic between them, and a response count that sets your plan. ScatterSpoke is built for the answer after the form: what the person meant.
Built only from Typeform’s own pricing and product pages and ScatterSpoke’s docs. Where a page doesn’t say, we write “Not stated.”
| Typeform | ScatterSpoke | |
|---|---|---|
| Free plan | See the price table below | Classic surveys and their responses unlimited; first ten agent surveys free (one-time credits that don’t expire); one seat |
| Paid plans | Basic 100 responses a month, 1 user; Plus 1,000 a month, 3 users; Business 10,000 a month, 5 users; Talent, Growth Flow and Enterprise above that. Prices below | Pro (20 agent surveys a month), Business (150) and Enterprise (unlimited); allowances are per workspace, not per seat. See pricing |
| Response limits | Set by plan, with a maximum monthly limit you can reach with add-ons: 750 on Basic, 2,500 on Plus, 50,000 on Business. Over 50,000 a month means a custom plan | Classic survey responses: unlimited on every plan. Agent surveys: counted per survey, per month; add-on packs of 50 that don’t expire |
| Follow-up questions | Logic on every paid plan sends people to your next fixed question. The product page says “Interaction AI asks relevant follow-up questions,” and the pricing page lists “Clarify with AI” on Plus, Business, Talent and Growth Flow, not Basic | Agent surveys: Spoke asks follow-ups live, within the goal, topics and probe depth you set, for the whole interview. Classic surveys: AI follow-up questions are a paid option |
| Open-ended answers | An Insights Hub that “surfaces response trends, outliers, sentiment, and key themes using AI”; Smart Insights listed on Growth Flow. Which plans include the Insights Hub: not stated on the pages checked | Themes with supporting quotes, the number of people behind each, and disagreement; every response readable as a transcript, including Spoke’s follow-ups |
| Exports | “Download responses in XLSX or CSV format” (which plans: see the pricing page) | CSV export from the survey; respondents can save their own transcript at the end |
| Sharing and embeds | Link, QR code, and embed code for emails and landing pages; custom subdomain on Plus and up; remove Typeform branding on Plus and up | Link, QR code, email invitation or embed, with reminders to people who haven’t answered |
| Respondent experience | A designed form, one screen at a time, with logic; video questions on Business and up | Agent surveys: a short conversation in the browser; no seat or workspace access needed. On Free, classic-survey respondents verify their email |

If one of these is the job, Typeform is the better tool, and switching would cost you something.
Colors, logos, a custom domain, no vendor branding: Typeform’s design is the reason people pick it. ScatterSpoke’s respondent experience is a conversation in the browser, not a designed page.
A lead form that pipes into HubSpot or Salesforce, a quiz with scored outcomes, an order form with Stripe: Typeform lists 300+ integrations and logic on every plan for exactly this. ScatterSpoke is for finding out why, not for capturing leads.
If your form branches ten ways based on earlier answers, keep it where the logic lives. Spoke follows up on what a person said; it doesn’t run a fixed decision tree.
Typeform’s embed code, drop-off rates and conversion tracking are made for a form inside a page. ScatterSpoke can embed a survey, but the interview is the point, not the conversion step.
Typeform lists video questions on its Business, Talent and Growth Flow plans: you record the ask and people record the answer. Spoke interviews in text.
In a one-question-at-a-time form, “It was good” goes into the text box, the screen slides to the next question, and “good” is what you have. In an agent survey, Spoke asks one follow-up about what the person just said, and then, if that answer is vague too, another. These are illustrative examples.
“Good” hides both the thing to keep (the honest panel) and the thing to fix (a workshop room too small for the crowd it drew).
“More integrations” is a specific afternoon a month with a specific tool. The form would have recorded a feature request; the interview found the job behind it.
The one word was the end of the form’s answer and the start of the interview’s: a person with a problem, and the words they use for it.
Typeform prices its plans by responses per month. ScatterSpoke doesn’t count classic survey responses at all, and counts agent surveys per month on paid plans.

Yes. On ScatterSpoke, classic surveys and their responses are free and unlimited on every plan, and your first ten agent surveys, where Spoke interviews each person and follows up, are free too.
Typeform’s pricing page lists a free account with a limited number of responses per month; the number isn’t on the pricing page. Paid plans start with Basic at 100 responses a month for one user.
As listed on its pricing page on September 27, 2026: Basic 39 USD a month (28 USD a month billed yearly), Plus 79 USD (56 yearly), Business 129 USD (91 yearly), Talent 169 USD (119 yearly), Growth Flow 379 USD (266 yearly), and Enterprise on request. Each plan includes a set number of responses a month; add-ons raise it.
For a plain form, ScatterSpoke’s classic surveys cost nothing and have no response limit. For the why behind the answers, an agent survey interviews each person; the first ten are free and paid plans count surveys a month, not responses.
Typeform’s product page says Interaction AI asks relevant follow-up questions, and its pricing page lists “Clarify with AI” on Plus and above, not Basic. The difference with ScatterSpoke is the scope: Spoke runs the whole interview toward a goal you set, with topics, probe depth and a time budget, and the Agent Results Brief shows how many people are behind each theme and where they disagree.
Agent surveys are a conversation run by an interviewer, Spoke, in the browser. Classic surveys are fixed questions you write, with nine answer types and an NPS preset. Neither is a designed, branded form in Typeform’s sense.
There’s no documented importer. Copy the questions into a classic survey, or turn the one you most need the why for into an agent survey. Export your past responses from Typeform first so you keep them.
Classic surveys are free and unlimited. Your first ten agent surveys are on us. No card.
