Intaky vs Jotform
Jotform builds almost any form: registrations, orders, surveys, payments. A form is submitted once. Collecting documents from a client is rarely once: half the files arrive, one is the wrong statement, and someone has to chase the rest. That loop is what Intaky is built around.

Choose Jotform if you need a general form builder: conditional logic, payments, e-signatures, thousands of templates, and high submission volumes at a low price. It is the better tool for one-off forms.
Choose Intaky if each submission is really a case: the client returns to the same checklist, sees what is still missing, replaces only the item you rejected, and gets reminded until it is complete.

Jotform is cheaper per submission: its Silver plan is $49 a month for 2,500 submissions and 10 GB. Intaky's $49 Starter plan covers 50 new applications and 10 GB. The trade is that each Intaky application is a whole case, reviewed item by item with its reminders and audit trail, not a single form post.
Intaky’s plans: Trial free for 14 days (15 new applications, 2 GB), Starter $49 a month (50, 10 GB), Growth $149 (250, 50 GB) and Scale $399 (1,000, 200 GB). Every plan has the whole product and unlimited team members. See pricing.
Intaky is built for document collection rather than general forms. A client gets one link to a checklist of questions and uploads, comes back to the same checklist until it is complete, and is reminded automatically. You accept or reject each item, and only rejected items can be changed.
Yes, Jotform forms can include file uploads, and they work well when the client sends everything at once. They are less suited to cases that take several rounds, where you need to see what is missing, send back one wrong file and chase the rest.
Per submission, yes. Jotform's Silver plan is $49 a month for 2,500 submissions; Intaky's Starter plan is $49 a month for 50 new applications. Each Intaky application is a full case with item-by-item review, reminders and an audit trail, so the two are priced for different jobs.
No. Every applicant sees the same questions in a checklist, and questions that only apply to some people are marked optional. If you need branching forms, Jotform is the better fit.
Yes. Many teams keep Jotform for enquiries, registrations or payments, and send Intaky's link once a client is taken on and the documents need collecting.
Clients set a password the first time, so they can come back to the same checklist, see what is still missing and replace anything you send back. They do not need a Google or other third-party account.
