Subscribe to your preferred update interval and forget about it.

Formless by Typeform

“Is this the right place?”

“No.”

…And that’s the extent of a traditional 404 page’s helpfulness. But what if it could guide users back to what they’re looking for on your site with a little help from an AI chatbot? Use the Formless conversation builder to set a tone of voice, welcome and end screen, conversation path, and visuals to answer users’ questions and keep them from leaving.
