PDFBetter works with Typeform through its Zapier and Make apps, with no code. Use it to turn a conversational form into a proper document: each response fills a PDF template, can go out for signature, and the signed copy can be emailed back. Each run of a PDFBetter step counts as one agent & automation run on your plan.
What you can automate with Typeform
Client onboarding packs: A new Typeform response → Fill PDF Form on your onboarding agreement → Send PDF for Signature to the client.
Quotes from a request form: A quote request → Fill PDF Form on a quote template → Download PDF → emailed to the prospect.
Signed copies back to the respondent: Document Fully Signed → Download Signed PDF → emailed to the person who answered.

Pricing
Pricing
This works on every PDFBetter account plan, including Free. Each PDFBetter step that runs counts as one agent & automation run; triggers and failed steps don't count.
Agent & automation runs per month: 200 on Free, 5,000 on Pro, unlimited (fair use) on Business.
Zapier's tasks or Make's operations, and your Typeform plan, are counted by those services as usual.

What it doesn't do
- PDFBetter doesn't connect to Typeform directly: Zapier or Make runs the steps between them, so you need an account with one of them.
- Download links in a step's output expire after about 10 minutes, so pass files on within the same run.
- AI steps read a PDF's text layer; run Make PDF Searchable (OCR) first on scanned documents.
Typeform + PDFBetter: questions people ask
Can a Typeform file upload go into PDFBetter?
Yes. Map the uploaded file from the response into a PDFBetter step, for example Merge PDFs to combine it with your cover page.
Do I need Zapier or Make to connect Typeform?
Yes, one of them. Both connect to Typeform and to PDFBetter; pick the one you already use. Make also has triggers for each recipient's signature and new form responses.
Does it cost extra in PDFBetter?
No. It's included on every plan, including Free; each PDFBetter step that runs uses one of your plan's monthly agent & automation runs.
Are my documents stored in PDFBetter?
Files a step works on are imported into your PDFBetter account so the step can process them, and appear in your documents, where you can delete them.
