Basin alternative
Lamofel is a Basin alternative for HTML forms when you want a small, low-priced form backend that stores each submission and emails it to your confirmed address (messages flagged as spam are stored, not emailed). Basin lists more spam filters, file storage, integrations and branding options than Lamofel, and it is the better choice if you need them.

Lamofel's annual prices are billed yearly. Basin's prices above are the per-month figures its pricing page shows for yearly billing; its monthly-billing prices, Pro and Agency prices and discount offers are on its page. Basin says spam submissions do not count towards its limit. Its pricing FAQ says that on going over a limit you can buy additional submissions instead of being cut off (billed monthly); its docs FAQ says that on the Free plan, once the limit is reached, submissions may be restricted until the next month.
When Basin is the better choice
Basin offers more than Lamofel does. Its pricing page lists spam options such as a custom honeypot, duplicate filter, country filter and language filter (which plan has which: see their pricing page); file storage from 100MB on its Free plan; webhooks, Slack, Google Sheets, auto-responses and API access from its Growth plan; and custom email templates and a custom email server (SMTP) on its Pro plan. It also lists a 14-day free trial and a drag-and-drop form builder.
Lamofel does not accept file uploads, and it lists a honeypot spam field rather than a range of filters. If you need uploads, integrations or branded emails, choose Basin.
When Lamofel fits
Lamofel fits when you want each submission stored and emailed to a confirmed address, with records kept for 30 days and then deleted, at a lower price: Lamofel's Starter plan is USD 5 a month for 2,000 messages, against Basin's $12.50 a month (billed yearly) for 250 submissions.
Lamofel's Free plan includes a "Powered by" footer on the thanks page. Every plan works with AI assistants you connect, such as Claude (and ChatGPT in Business, Enterprise and Edu workspaces) -- how to connect, at no extra charge. Support is by email, with a reply within 2 business days (India time, Monday to Friday).
Its free form generators cover contact, waitlist, RSVP and feedback forms. Generating a form does not require an account. Starter and Pro can be bought on the plans page, and you can ask for a refund within 30 days of a payment.
