Show HN: Boosterpack Forms – block spam, deliver instantly, store nothing

https://boosterpackforms.com
1•Martibis•8h ago
Hi HN, I built Boosterpack Forms, a form backend for developers.

The idea is simple: point any HTML form at the API, and it blocks spam invisibly, delivers submissions straight to your email or webhook, and stores nothing.

I built it because I kept running into the same tradeoff with forms on websites and client projects: the simpler tools were fast but limiting, while the more advanced ones often came with dashboards, stored submissions, more complexity, and more overhead than I actually wanted.

What I wanted was something closer to: - invisible spam blocking - no CAPTCHA for visitors - email and webhook delivery - simple integration with HTML forms - no dashboard required - less privacy/GDPR overhead

So that's what I built. There’s a free tier as well.

Would love feedback, especially from people building websites, client projects, or lightweight products. Curious whether this "barebones vs bloated platform" gap is something others have run into too.

Hi, that's a cool idea!

What are your thoughts about it being a possible security hole and external dependency in an app? If boosterpack goes down, or it's compromised somehow, my app is affected.
