New to this? What open source means and how to read this page.

What it is

An open-source survey and experience management platform for in-product and link surveys.

Good for

Collecting customer feedback with control over where the data lives.

The catch

Enterprise features sit under a separate license. For simple one-off forms it is more than you need.

Install it with an AI assistant

Paste this into Claude, ChatGPT or another assistant that can work on your computer (Claude Code or Claude Desktop, for example). It is written from the project's official repository and tells the assistant to show you every command first. Setup time is our estimate: about 30 min.

I want to install and try Formbricks on my own computer.

Official repository: https://github.com/formbricks/formbricks
Official site: https://formbricks.com

Before you do anything:
1. Read the README and install notes in the official repository above, and nothing else. Do not follow third-party tutorials or mirrors.
2. Tell me in plain words what will be installed, what it needs (operating system, memory, graphics card, disk space, accounts) and what it will cost me, if anything.
3. Check my computer against those needs and tell me honestly if it will not work well.

Run it with Docker. First check whether Docker is installed and running, and if it is not, guide me through installing Docker Desktop. Use the official Docker or compose instructions from the README, keep the data in a volume so it survives updates, and tell me the address to open in my browser. Tell me how much memory and disk it will use, and how to remove it cleanly.

Rules:
- Show me each command before you run it, and say what it does.
- Ask before anything that deletes files, changes system settings, opens a network port or needs an administrator password.
- Never put my passwords or keys on a command line, or in a file I did not choose.
- When it is installed, help me check it with one small test, and tell me how to start and stop it.
- If something goes wrong, explain it in plain words and do not guess your way around it.

Good to know before you start: Enterprise features sit under a separate license. For simple one-off forms it is more than you need.

We have not run this prompt ourselves yet. Read what the assistant plans to do before you say yes.
