Here's a first-person Product Hunt comment you can post as the maker: --- Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm the founder of FORMNA™, and I'm incredibly excited to share what we've been building. The idea came from a frustrating reality I kept seeing: government agencies, universities, healthcare organizations, and enterprises were managing critical intake processes — grants, licensing, compliance programs — through a patchwork of spreadsheets, shared drives, and email threads. Existing SaaS form tools weren't the answer either, because these organizations can't just pipe sensitive citizen data or patient records into someone else's cloud. So we built FORMNA — a fully self-hosted, enterprise-grade form builder and program management platform that runs entirely on your own servers. Your data never leaves your infrastructure. Period. Here's what makes FORMNA different from every other form tool out there: **🏗️ It's not just forms — it's full program management.** You can bundle forms into programs (think: grant cycles, licensing applications, compliance workflows), set deadlines, define multi-stage review pipelines with weighted scoring, assign reviewers, request clarifications from applicants, and track every submission from draft to final decision — all in one place. **🔒 Built for compliance from day one.** TOTP multi-factor authentication, full audit trails, role-based access control, CSRF protection, rate limiting, and encrypted secrets. GDPR, HIPAA, and government data regulations are not afterthoughts — they're the foundation. **🤖 AI-powered summaries — on your terms.** Reviewers can generate instant AI summaries of submissions using a configurable LLM provider. Because we're self-hosted, your data never goes anywhere you don't control. **🌍 Truly international.** Ships with English and Arabic as core system languages (with full RTL support), plus French, Spanish, German, and Danish. You can add your own languages via the admin panel. **🛠️ Built with boring technology — on purpose.** PHP 8.2+, MySQL, Apache, and vanilla JavaScript. No heavy frameworks, no Docker requirement, no webpack, no build steps. A $20/month VPS can serve thousands of users. Any developer can maintain it. Any hosting provider can run it. No vendor lock-in, ever. **💰 Dual-licensed so the right people get it for free.** FORMNA is open source under AGPL-3.0 — completely free for non-profits, charities, academic institutions, government (internal use), and companies under $1M in revenue. Enterprise licensing is available for larger commercial organizations that need priority support and implementation assistance. We built FORMNA because organizations that handle the most important data in the world deserve tools that respect their need for control, compliance, and sovereignty — not another SaaS subscription that holds their data hostage. Would love to hear your thoughts, questions, and feedback. Happy to answer anything! 🙌
