Why choose stigmi over Tally

Tally is a great Typeform alternative. stigmi is a different category altogether.

Conversational UX vs static pages

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.

AI-powered dynamic follow-ups

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.

Native Razorpay & UPI payments

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.

INR pricing — no FX headaches

Tally charges in USD. Their PRO plan is $29/month (~₹2,400). stigmi PRO is ₹399/month — about 6× cheaper. No forex fees, no fluctuating bills. Pay with UPI or Indian cards.

58+ MCP tools for AI agents

stigmi has a built-in MCP server with 58+ tools — connect Claude, GPT, or any AI agent to create forms, read responses, and trigger logic programmatically. Tally has no AI agent integration. stigmi is built for the AI era.

Data stays in India

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.

Common questions

How is stigmi different from Tally?

Tally builds traditional static forms with a beautiful Notion-like editor. stigmi builds AI-powered conversational forms that guide respondents through questions one at a time, with dynamic follow-ups generated in real time. It's a fundamentally different UX that drives higher completion rates.

Both are free with unlimited responses — why switch?

The free tier is comparable. But the form experience is completely different. stigmi's conversational AI interface feels like chatting, not filling out a form. You also get native Razorpay/UPI payments and INR pricing on paid plans — things Tally doesn't offer.

Does stigmi support Razorpay and UPI?

Yes. stigmi has a native Razorpay payment question type. Collect payments in INR via UPI, net banking, and debit/credit cards right inside your conversational form. Tally only supports Stripe.

Is Tally better for complex multi-page forms?

Tally's Notion-like editor is excellent for building complex multi-page static forms with layout blocks. If you need a traditional form with pixel-perfect layout control, Tally is great. If you want a conversational, AI-driven experience that adapts to each respondent, stigmi is the better choice.

What is stigmi's MCP server?

stigmi includes a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server with 58+ tools. You can connect AI agents like Claude to create forms, read responses, and manage data programmatically. Tally has no equivalent.
