Tally
· #60 most-usedBuild forms once. Let your agents handle the rest.
Tally is a free, Notion-like form and survey builder that lets anyone create beautiful, logic-driven forms without writing a line of code. Connect it to Actionist and your agents can create and close forms on demand, pull every submission the moment it arrives, route responses to CRM contacts, log data to spreadsheets, and trigger multi-step workflows — all without you opening a browser.
Eliminates manual work. Agents eliminate the manual work of copying form responses into downstream tools, following up with submitters, and reporting on response trends.
What your Tally agent runs on autopilot
A week of scheduled jobs your Actionist agent will execute on your behalf.
Tally × every other app you use
End-to-end automations that span multiple apps — each one a real business outcome.
Onboarding form → full CS kickoff
When a new customer fills in your onboarding Tally form, the agent reads every field — preferred communication channel, company size, primary use case — and fans out the entire welcome sequence without a rep lifting a finger. A personalised Slack message hits the assigned CSM, a kickoff call appears on Google Calendar, and a confirmation email lands in the customer's inbox within 60 seconds of form submission.
