Typeform is used for collecting simple information, and it’s strong in workflows that connect submissions to marketing clouds and CRMs for follow-up action. You can build beautiful forms that carry your brand identity, and they’re known for high completion rates. But designing a survey that produces insights, or analyzing quantitative data, isn’t what Typeform is for. It has AI analysis features, but they stay at the descriptive level (“group A differs from group B”), and even those comparisons have to be explicitly requested by the user.
Opensurvey Dataspace was built for insights and strategy. The entire research process runs inside the platform, and research agents trained on experts’ know-how handle everything automatically, from research planning and collection to analysis and report writing. Form styling, on the other hand, is intentionally limited to brand logos and colors, image changes, and CTAs, so the survey experience stays intact. If what you need is lead collection and aesthetics, choose Typeform. If it’s insights that help you understand your customers and consumers, choose Dataspace.
3 reasons to choose Opensurvey
An AI specializing in consumer research assists from the start
For many people, the hardest part of research is getting started, and good analysis depends on a well-designed survey. Start by telling Dataspace what you want to know. It defines the research objective and designs a survey that gets you there.
Research AI runs everything from analysis planning to the final report
Analyze by having a conversation. You don’t have to dig through the data for age-group comparisons or differences across customer tiers. Just ask, and Dataspace AI answers right away. Ask “Overall satisfaction looks flat, is there really no difference by tier?” and you’ll get insights and suggestions like “Satisfaction rose among VIP members but fell among standard members. Review the recent changes to membership benefits.”
The respondents you need are already here
Typeform can only reach people who already have the link, making it hard to hear opinions from beyond your existing customers. On Dataspace, you can target Opensurvey's quality- and activity-verified panel by gender, age, region, and other criteria. And with consumer panels across 20 countries, you can run global studies in as little as a day.

Q. Should I choose Typeform or Dataspace?
It comes down to what you need. If you're collecting contacts and lead information, syncing them to a CRM, and want on-brand forms, Typeform is an excellent choice. If your goal is insights from customer and consumer reactions, Dataspace, where AI handles everything from design to analysis and reporting, is the right fit.
Q. Is Dataspace free to use?
You can start with a free plan. As soon as you sign up, you get access to roughly 20 question types and logic editing, data collection, external data upload, AI-based analysis, and automated AI report generation. If you need advanced analysis, branding, and collaboration features, you can choose the Professional plan; if you need organization-wide data asset management, you can choose the Enterprise plan.
Q. Typeform has AI analysis too. What's different?
Typeform’s AI analysis stays at the descriptive level (“group A differs from group B”), and comparisons between groups have to be explicitly requested. Dataspace’s AI analyst plans the analysis on its own, runs it across multiple cuts, surfaces both the insights you intended and the unexpected findings, and writes a report complete with charts.
Q. Can survey data containing customer personal information be managed securely?
Dataspace is operated by Opensurvey, which holds four major security and quality certifications: ISMS-P (Personal Information & Information Security Management System), ISO/IEC 27001 (information security), ISO/IEC 27701 (privacy information management), and ISO 20252 (market research). It provides cloud security, per-user two-factor authentication, automatic destruction of personal information, and download permission controls, and lets you set per-project access permissions so only authorized people can access the data.
