From the name "snoop" forms, I genuinely thought this was some kind of tracking/telemetry forms tool. It's not.

hey! Interesting, this is kinda where we came from. We thought that with a form you always try to get as much information as possible, hence your "snooping" around. You took it a step further, good that extensive form analytics are coming :)

I wouldn't want to have to list on my privacy policy that we use a tool called snoop anything.

Change the name.

I love this pricing model of .02 per submission for the pro plan. Often, as an agency, our customer or project needs are “lumpy” in terms of usage and the monthly base fees are a serious margin killer. The usage based fee like a cloud provider would charge is awesome for our use case.

that was the idea, great to hear it resonates!

Yep. My gdpr obsessed dpo would have kittens. Other than that it looks great!

As a former Typeform user, I like this. I actually like that it doesn't look too much like Typeform. I did notice in a comment that you want to have an option to "Typformerize" a form, which is neat because it gives the user the option for it even if I wouldn't use it myself. I also really like your landing page design, very easy to parse and read.
