DodoForm Free Plan and Pro Trial: What to Know Before You Start
Updated
DodoForm gives you a 14-day Pro trial with no credit card required, and when it ends your account drops to a free plan rather than locking you out. The free plan includes 100 AI credits per month and unlimited responses. If you only need to test whether the collect-and-extract workflow fits your team, you can start without any payment details and decide later. What the source material does not include is actual pricing for Pro — the site links to a Pricing page, but no figures are listed, so treat any specific number as something you'll need to check there yourself.
What the free plan actually gives you
Based on the site's own description, the free tier is not a crippled demo:
- 100 AI credits per month — these power the AI work: turning voice notes, images, PDFs, and messy text into structured fields.
- Unlimited responses — the number of people who fill in your forms isn't capped.
- No card required to start.
- Your data isn't held hostage — the site states it "drops to free, never denies your data," meaning you keep access to what you've collected.
The practical question is whether 100 credits covers your volume. Credits are consumed by AI extraction and verification, so a workflow built on pasting long email threads or audio files will burn through them faster than one collecting short form answers. If you're processing a handful of records a week, the free plan may be enough indefinitely. If you're a recruiter or ops team pushing dozens of resumes or briefs through daily, the trial is where you'll find out.
The 14-day Pro trial, and what happens after
The trial is framed as a way to use the full product before committing:
| Free plan | 14-day Pro trial | |
|---|---|---|
| Card required | No | No |
| Duration | Ongoing | 14 days |
| AI credits | 100/month | Pro-level (amount not stated in source) |
| Responses | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| After it ends | Stays free | Drops to free plan |
| Cancellation | — | Cancel anytime |
Two things worth noting. First, because no card is collected, there's no surprise charge at day 15 — the account simply reverts. Second, "cancel anytime" is listed alongside the trial, which suggests you can end it early without penalty, though the source doesn't detail the mechanics.
Where the credits go: collect vs. extract
DodoForm has two entry points, and both consume AI work, so it helps to know which one you're testing during the trial:
Collect from others. You share an AI form. Respondents type, talk, or paste something messy, and the AI structures it — then the respondent confirms what the AI heard before submitting. You get clean records instead of raw transcripts, and low-confidence rows get routed to review.
Extract from your own data. You paste existing emails, resumes, notes, files, images, or audio into the Extractor. The AI pulls them onto your schema with per-field confidence scoring, and anything uncertain lands in a review queue.
The site's example is a conference follow-up message that becomes a record with name, company, email, phone, team size, timeline, and budget — each field carrying a confidence percentage (98%, 95%, 64% in the sample). That confidence score is the mechanism behind the "doesn't invent your data" claim: instead of guessing, low-confidence fields are flagged for a human to check.
Trying it before you decide anything
You don't need an account to see the extraction engine work. The site offers a no-signup demo where you can paste your own messy text or edit the sample and watch it structure the output. That's the cheapest way to judge accuracy on your kind of input — a client brief reads very differently from a voice note.
If the demo output looks right, the sequence is: start free (no card), run real records through both the collect and extract paths during the 14-day Pro window, then see whether 100 credits a month covers your steady-state volume once you're back on free.
The one thing to verify yourself
Pricing for Pro is the gap in this material. The site has a Pricing page, but no plan names, amounts, or billing periods are given in the source. Before you rely on the trial-to-paid path, open that page and confirm the current Pro cost and what it includes — the free plan and trial terms above are what the site states, but the paid tier is not documented here.
