PDF · Funnels · Forms

Online forms, funnels and PDF formsfor everything you still print out.

You have something people are supposed to fill in: an application, a registration, a job application. asksteps turns it into a page that works on a phone. Either as a form with several fields per step, or as a funnel that asks one question at a time. If your document is a fillable PDF, just upload it. You get the same document back, completed.

Free account without payment details, with one PDF form. To test the full Professional scope for 14 days you need a payment method: after that €19 per month on the Starter plan, cancel any time.

Specialty

The PDF you send out today
can be filled out online starting tomorrow.

A form builder stops at the web form: you get the answers and transfer them back into your document yourself. That manual step is what disappears here. We read the fields from your file, build the form from them, and write the answers back into that exact document.

Everything About PDF Forms
  • Fields are read, not retyped

    Text fields, checkboxes, dropdowns, and signature fields are recognized and mapped.

  • Every PDF page becomes a step

    A four-page application becomes a form with four steps instead of one endless scrolling page.

  • Your layout stays untouched

    You get your original file back, filled out — not a rebuild that your department would have to re-approve.

  • Signature with a finger

    It lands in the designated rectangle at the correct aspect ratio. The signature element is included in every plan.

Products

Funnels, forms, PDF forms
and one inbox for all of it.

All four use the same building blocks, share the same look, and land in the same inbox. You decide per project which format fits.

"The form is too long. People just leave."

Conversational

Funnels

One question per step, branching after every answer. Anyone who doesn't meet the requirements is filtered out early and politely, instead of rejected three weeks later. Built in the visual node editor.

"We need documents, signatures, and clean data."

Multi-Step

Forms

Classic, multi-step forms with a progress indicator, per-step required-field validation, and file upload. For anything where a fixed path fits better than a conversation.

"Requests are sitting in three different mailboxes."

Reporting

Inbox

Every submission lands in one place: with status, notes, search, attachments, and CSV export for your spreadsheet. No inbox you have to dig through.

PDF → Web → PDF

"Our application is a PDF. And it is going to stay one."

Our Specialty

PDF Forms

Your fillable PDF becomes an online form, read in automatically, field by field. At the end you download your original document with the entered answers. Signing happens on screen.

Flow Designer

Decide Which Question Follows Which Answer

Someone who answers “under 18” should get a different next question than someone who answers “over 65”. You set those paths by dragging a line in the editor from the answer to the next question. So you see the branching instead of having to picture it. There used to be a typed-in number in the same place, and nobody could tell whether it was right.

  • A line runs from the answer to the next question, not a typed-in number
  • Success and drop-out are their own endpoints, not a special case buried in the text
  • Arrange nodes freely, sort answers within a question

Form Builder

Arrange Fields and Spread Them Across Steps

Drag elements from the palette onto the canvas, arrange them in rows and columns, spread them across several steps. Required fields are checked per step. Anyone who forgets something finds out right away, not after submitting.

  • Multi-step, with a progress indicator and a back button
  • Rows with multiple columns, elements placed by drag and drop
  • Export entire forms as JSON and import them again

Theme editor

Forms in the Design of Your Website

You can usually spot an embedded form straight away: different typeface, different colors, different corners from the rest of the page. In the Theme Editor you set that yourself, and the preview alongside follows every change. Thirteen ready-made themes are included, and whatever you make of them you save as your own.

  • Answers as a list or as tiles. With two answers a list looks calmer, with eight a grid does.
  • Progress indicator on or off. On a long application it helps; with three questions, “two more to go” tends to put people off.
  • Included in every plan, including the free one

Custom HTML

Your Own Sections in HTML and CSS

A section inside the form that you write yourself in HTML and CSS. A price table, a comparison grid, a note box, an input mask that has to look exactly this way and no other. Where the builder stops, you keep writing. Any fields you put in there are real: the answers land in the inbox like all the others.

  • Rebuild an imported PDF form freely without losing the mapping
  • The next button sits wherever you put it
  • No JavaScript, and no fonts fetched from Google

PDF Import

Read the PDF In, Have It Filled Online, Get It Back Completed

asksteps reads the form fields from your PDF, builds the online form from them page by page, and writes the answers back into that exact document at the end. The file becomes a form, and at the end a file again. What you download is your original file, not a rebuild that someone would have to approve all over again.

  • Text fields, checkboxes, dropdown lists, and signature fields are detected
  • One form step per PDF page
  • Read-only fields are left untouched

Inbox

Every Submission in One Place

Submissions with a processing status and a note, free-text search, uploaded attachments, and the completed PDF to download. For spreadsheets, there's a CSV export.

  • Status: new, open, done, and archived
  • CSV export in the semicolon-separated format used by German spreadsheet applications
  • Key metrics and a 30-day time series

How far the styling goes

Delivery

Five ways to publish
a form.

You build the flow once. How it reaches the outside world is a separate decision, and you can switch later without touching the flow. If you have no website at all, start at 01.

#11 ×01asksteps.co/p/…02<funnel-widget>03WordPress04name.asksteps.co05example.com
01

As a page with us

No website, nothing to install: every form gets a fixed address. Copy the link, send it, done. The shortest path to your first enquiry.

02

Embed in Your Website

One line of HTML on any page. The funnel runs self-contained and doesn't interfere with the rest of your design.

03

WordPress Plugin

Install the plugin, add the shortcode — or use the Gutenberg block or the Elementor widget.

04

Under Your Own Subdomain

A standalone page under your name on asksteps, with your logo and your colors. You don't have to buy a domain for it.

05

Under Your Own Domain

Point your domain at us; the certificate is issued automatically. Your visitors will see nothing of us at all.

The trial belongs to the Starter plan: for 14 days the full Professional scope applies, PDF import included, after which Starter is billed automatically unless you cancel beforehand. It requires a confirmed email address and a payment method. When the trial ends, the Professional features are gone — among them the public profile page and webhooks; the PDF import stays, with three forms instead of five. You can switch to Professional at any time. Entirely without payment details, there is the permanently free Free plan.

PDF import is included in every plan: one form on the free account, three on Starter, five on Professional, 25 on Business. During the 14-day trial, the full Professional scope applies. The signature element is included everywhere.

"In preparation" means: not available yet. AI assistance is planned but is not part of the plan you buy — we will name a date once we can commit to one.
