Basin Alternative
A tiered form backend with granular submission-based pricing
What Basin Does
Basin is a form backend with five submission-based tiers, where features like webhooks and API access are unlocked progressively as you move up in plan.
Who It's Suitable For
Teams with predictable, low submission volume who want fine-grained tier control over storage and features.
Pricing
Basin's Free plan covers 50 submissions/month with 100MB file storage and basic spam filtering, but no webhooks or API access. Starter ($12.50/mo, 250 submissions) and Growth ($24.17/mo, 1,000 submissions) add more storage; webhooks and API access only unlock starting at the Growth tier. Pro ($30.62/mo annually, 5,000 submissions) and Agency ($81.25/mo annually, 25,000 submissions) add advanced spam filtering and larger file storage.
