Verdict

We are not publishing a free-tier verdict for either JotForm or smartforms.dev. When we read the page we cite for JotForm on 2026-10-19, we found a change we could not reconcile with the terms we publish for it, and we have read it again since, on 2026-11-09, without confirming them. When we last read the page we cite for smartforms.dev, on 2026-11-07, we refused the change we considered recording because it named no figure that had moved, and refusing a change is not a confirmation of the terms we publish for it. We are not comparing the two pricing histories.

A verdict here is not a fixed property of the vendor. A one-off pricing event demotes a vendor while its recorded date falls in the last 180 days and then lapses on its own, with nothing about the vendor having changed; a standing condition — a free tier withdrawn and not restored, a product retired — does not lapse with time. A badge carrying a date states the record it rests on; a badge with no date rests on no record in force.
