FormAssembly

Overview

FormAssembly is an enterprise data collection and workflow automation platform tailored for highly regulated industries. It allows organizations to quickly create complex web forms, manage approval workflows, and automatically map data bi-directionally to CRM systems like Salesforce. Designed to meet strict security frameworks like HIPAA, FedRAMP, and PCI DSS, FormAssembly transforms basic web forms into secure business intake workflows.

What it does

• Builds secure web forms using a visual no-code builder with advanced conditional logic.
• Syncs form data bi-directionally with Salesforce objects, dynamic picklists, and prefill features in real time.
• Automates post-submission workflows including document generation, e-signatures, and conditional routing.
• Enforces enterprise compliance standards across healthcare, government, higher education, and finance sectors.

Who it's for

• Salesforce Administrators & Developers
• Healthcare & Life Sciences Operations
• Higher Education Admissions Teams
• Government & Financial Services Compliance Officers

Why it works

• Deep native bi-directional integration with Salesforce handles multi-object mapping without code.
• Enterprise compliance stack supports FedRAMP High, HIPAA, SOC 2 Type II, and PCI DSS Level 1.
• Built-in workflow automation handles cross-departmental approvals and triggers follow-up actions.
• Direct-to-API architecture eliminates reliance on third-party middleware for data transmission.

Founder story

FormAssembly was founded in 2006 in Bloomington, Indiana, by Cedric Savarese. Recognizing that web forms lacked deep integrations with enterprise CRMs and failed to provide regulatory-grade security, Savarese developed FormAssembly to provide a secure web-to-anything data collection platform. The company has grown into a leading enterprise form builder used by thousands of organizations worldwide.
