I hated form handling on static sites, so I built my own solution

Every time I needed a contact form on a static site, I hit the same wall.

FormSubmit works but it's noisy and has no dashboard. Formspree is great but $25/month just for forms felt too much.

So I built UnStatic. A form backend for static sites.

Drop in one line of HTML and your form works. Every submission stored in a dashboard. Rate limiting and bot protection built in. Gmail digest twice a day. Instant Telegram notifications. Custom redirects or JSON response, your choice.

<form action="https://unstatic.dev/message/YOUR_KEY" method="POST"> <input name="name" /> <input name="email" type="email" /> <input name="message" /> <button type="submit">Send</button> </form>

That's it. No backend, no SDK, no config.

Free to try. 3 endpoints, 25 requests per hour, unlimited submissions.

Next up: AI chatbot integration for static sites.

Would love feedback from anyone who builds static sites or has run into this problem.
