Tally is a great Typeform alternative. stigmi is a different category altogether.
Tally forms look great but they're still static — respondents fill boxes and click Submit. stigmi creates a conversational experience where AI guides users through questions one at a time, with dynamic follow-ups. Completion rates are significantly higher.
stigmi's AI doesn't just present questions — it adapts. Based on a respondent's answers, it can generate follow-up questions in real time, probe deeper, or skip irrelevant sections. Tally's conditional logic is rule-based and pre-defined.
Tally only supports Stripe — no UPI, no net banking, no Indian debit cards without workarounds. stigmi has native Razorpay as a question type. Collect payments in INR right inside your conversational form.

Both stigmi and Tally offer MCP servers — but stigmi's is in a different league. 40+ tools covering forms, questions, responses, analytics, logic, A/B testing, endings, payments, tickets, and admin. Plus OAuth2 with PKCE, auto-refresh tokens, and MCP resources. Tally's MCP is basic. stigmi's is enterprise-grade.
stigmi runs on Asia-Pacific infrastructure. Your respondents' data doesn't leave India. Tally stores data in Belgium (EU) — fine for European users, but a compliance consideration for Indian businesses handling sensitive data.
