What is input?
Input is a privacy-focused, no-code form builder for simplicity and brand consistency. Users create clean, customizable forms matching their brand colors. Self-hosting gives full data control. Features include a visual form editor, webhook integrations, email notifications for submissions and invitations, file uploads with local or S3-compatible storage, and a built-in queue worker. Runs as a Docker container on port 8080, with optional MariaDB, Redis, and S3 for production. Self-hosted edition limited to one team; first user becomes admin. Two-factor authentication supported.
