eForms alternative: fill in documents without an account
eForms has a large library of state-specific forms, with free blank downloads and paid plans after a 7-day trial. Clausery turns each of its free templates into a short questionnaire in your browser and gives you a finished Word document, with no account, card or trial.
eForms' 7-day trial needs a card and bills $49 for the monthly plan when it ends, unless you cancel.

Choose eForms if
- You want a free blank form for your state, to fill in by hand
- You need a form written for a particular state's rules
- You prefer a blank PDF to a questionnaire
Choose Clausery if
- You want to answer questions and get a finished document, not a blank form
- You do not want an account, a card or a trial
- Details you type should stay on your own computer
- Optional clauses should appear only when they apply
Moving a document from eForms
- Download the finished document from eForms as a Word file if your plan allows it, or start from the matching free template.
- Replace each detail that changes with a tag such as
{buyer_name}, and wrap optional paragraphs in{#is_vehicle}…{/is_vehicle}. - Check the file with the free template tag checker, then drop it into the app. Next time, you answer the questions instead of editing the document.
What Clausery deliberately leaves out
Clausery is software, not a law firm. It has no lawyers to call, no state-specific court or motor vehicle forms, no e-signature and no cloud storage of your documents. If you need legal advice or an official form, eForms or a local lawyer may be the better choice. If you need a sound general document that you can fill in again whenever you like, a free template may be all it takes.
Questions
Can I use Clausery and eForms together?
Yes. You could use eForms for a state-specific form or a question to a lawyer, and Clausery for the documents you fill in again and again. Clausery produces an ordinary Word file, so nothing needs to connect.
How much does Clausery cost compared with eForms?
Every Clausery library template is free, you can automate up to three of your own templates free with unlimited documents, and Pro is $19 per user per month. The table above summarises eForms's published pricing as of 2026; check the vendor for current prices.
Is there a trial that turns into a subscription?
No. The free plan has no time limit and asks for no card, and every template can be downloaded as a Word file without an account. You only pay if you choose to buy Pro.
What happens to my templates if I stop using Clausery?
They are ordinary Word files with tags, and your data exports as plain JSON. Nothing is locked into Clausery.
Try it with your own template
Open the app, drop in a Word document with tags like {client_name}, and you have a questionnaire. Or start from one of the free templates.
