Quick answer
Tally is a free form builder (a tool for creating online forms that collect answers from other people) used for client intake, lead capture and surveys. Its free plan includes unlimited forms, unlimited submissions, and connections to Zapier, Make and webhooks, so the answers can be passed automatically to other tools without paying.
