Hey HN,

I'm a solopreneur and run a web design agency.

I create open-source apps, but I also work as a freelancer and designer. I was accepting any new freelance project via forms on my agency website.

I was using Typeform, but as time went by and more people submitted forms, it got more and more expensive. That time, I thought to use Google Form, but it was way too blocky and looked very unprofessional on my agency website.

So I thought to build my own forms for my own usage, and it turns out it almost doubled form submissions and inquiry calls.

I was happy, so I thought to build it for everyone and make it open-source.

I added AI functionalities using Vercel AISDK. I can generate forms almost instantly using AI and also added analytics AI so that users can talk with their forms—more like talk with their analytics data.

I've been building this publicly, sharing updates on my X account (preetsuthar17)

I hope this product will be as helpful to you as it was for me. Would love your feedback pls

Under 'Is Ikiform open source':

> Ikiform is completely open-source and available on GitHub

The link on the word Github should probably link to the actual repo or org and not the github homepage, I would imagine?

Seems it's https://github.com/preetsuthar17/ikiform, linked in the footer.

Seems to be missing a proper license though. The only thing mentioning anything about the licensing seems to be https://github.com/preetsuthar17/Ikiform/blob/e9f1fb8b68eb1c...

> Permission is granted to temporarily download one copy of the materials (information or software) on Ikiform's website for personal, non-commercial transitory viewing only.

The license added (MIT) seems to conflict with these terms too..
