Rapid AI Forms is a contact form builder that uses AI to do the boring part. Instead of dragging fields around, you describe the form you want in plain English \u2014 \"contact form with name, email, phone, and a short message\"<\/em> \u2014 and the plugin generates the fields, labels, and validation for you. Edit anything by hand, drop it on any page with a shortcode, and start receiving submissions.<\/p>\n\n Every form sends a notification email to whoever you choose, with a fully customizable Subject and Body using mail-tags (Contact Form 7 style). Replies go straight to the visitor's email address when you pick a Reply-To field.<\/p>\n\n Typical uses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Bring your own AI<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Use your own API keys for Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint (OpenAI, OpenRouter, Fireworks, Groq, local LLMs, and others). On WordPress 7.0+ you can also use a connector configured under Settings \u2192 Connectors<\/strong> \u2014 no per-plugin API key needed.<\/p>\n\n Features<\/strong><\/p>\n\n This plugin contacts a third-party AI service only<\/strong> when an administrator clicks Generate<\/strong> or Apply changes<\/strong> in the form editor. The request is sent to whichever provider the administrator configured: Anthropic (privacy<\/a>), Google Gemini (privacy<\/a>), OpenAI (privacy<\/a>), any OpenAI-compatible endpoint of your choice, or \u2014 on WordPress 7.0+ \u2014 a connector configured under Settings \u2192 Connectors<\/strong>. The request body contains only the natural-language prompt the administrator typed, plus the form's current schema when editing an existing form. No site content, user data, or visitor submissions are ever sent to the AI provider.<\/p>\n\n Form submissions stay on your site: they're stored in a custom database table and, if enabled per form, sent as a notification email through WordPress's own That's the primary use case and the one the AI defaults are tuned for. Under the hood the field set is general enough to build inquiry forms, RSVPs, newsletter signups, support intakes, and similar lightweight submission forms. It is not a replacement for payment forms, multi-page applications, or anything with conditional logic (yet).<\/p><\/dd>\n You need credentials for at least one provider. Either bring your own API key (Anthropic, Google Gemini, or any OpenAI-compatible service), or on WordPress 7.0+ configure a connector under Settings \u2192 Connectors<\/strong> and pick WordPress AI Client<\/em> in the plugin settings \u2014 no per-plugin key needed in that case.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. Every field is fully editable by hand and you can build the whole form manually if you prefer. The AI is a shortcut, not a requirement.<\/p><\/dd>\n No. Submissions stay in your own database. Only the prompts you type in the form editor are sent to your chosen AI provider, and only when you explicitly click Generate or Apply.<\/p><\/dd>\n Into a dedicated Open the form in the editor and scroll to Email notifications<\/strong>.
