In an era where data is an organization's most critical asset — and its greatest liability — FormAssembly is redefining what it means to collect data securely, intelligently, and responsibly. With the launch of FormAssembly Atlas and its agentic AI assistant Fai, the Bloomington, Indiana-based enterprise platform is making a bold declaration: the era of manual form building is over.
A Platform Built on Data Stewardship
Founded in 2006 by Cedric Savarese, FormAssembly began as a vision to give organizations better tools for handling data responsibly. Nearly two decades on, that mission has evolved into one of the most comprehensive enterprise data collection platforms on the market — trusted by organizations across healthcare, higher education, financial services, and the public sector.
The company's core philosophy has always centered on the idea that organizations must be good stewards of the personal data entrusted to them. This ethos drives every product decision, from compliance architecture to user experience design, and has helped FormAssembly earn deep trust among enterprise customers who operate in the most heavily regulated environments.
That trust has been formally recognized: in September 2025, FormAssembly was named a Leader in Info-Tech Research Group's 2025 Online Forms Data Quadrant Report, earning the highest overall satisfaction score among all vendors evaluated — with top marks for Features, Customization, APIs and Integration, and Training.
Introducing FormAssembly Atlas: The End of Manual Form Building
Launched in October 2025, FormAssembly Atlas represents a generational leap forward for the platform. At its heart is Fai — an agentic AI assistant built directly into the platform that can autonomously generate branded, enterprise-ready forms and entire end-to-end workflows from a simple natural language prompt.
Unlike superficial AI add-ons, Fai is deeply integrated: it can optimize forms for usability and compliance, enforce organizational data standards, and seamlessly connect workflows to Salesforce and over 30 other platforms including Google Sheets, PayPal, and Stripe. Crucially, Fai always keeps the user in control — and when deeper human assistance is needed, it connects users to a real person immediately.
Atlas also features a redesigned connector architecture giving enterprises greater control over their data integrations, and is built on AWS with enterprise-grade architecture for high-performance scalability and a security-first foundation.
"With the release of FormAssembly Atlas and our agentic AI assistant, Fai, we are announcing the end of manual form and workflow creation in data collection. Atlas redefines enterprise data collection with a human-centric approach — enabling organizations to move faster while keeping their data reliable, secure, and AI-ready."— Cedric Savarese, Founder & CEO, FormAssembly
Security and Compliance at the Core
For FormAssembly, security is not a feature — it is the foundation. The platform is PCI DSS Level 1 Certified and fully compliant with GDPR, HIPAA, FERPA, the Australian Federal Privacy Act, and Australian Privacy Principles. Enterprise customers also benefit from a choice of seven AWS regions globally for data residency, least-privilege access controls, mandatory single sign-on, and data masking for sensitive fields.
The stakes could not be higher. The FBI's Internet Crime Report recorded cybercrime losses totaling $10.3 billion in 2022 — a 49% increase over the prior year — while 70% of web applications contain vulnerabilities tied to access control issues. FormAssembly's research underscores the urgency internally too: a 2025 survey found that 98% of teams using manual workflows report significant inefficiencies, creating compounding risks around data accuracy, security, and compliance.
To bolster its technical leadership, FormAssembly promoted Bryan O'Neill to Chief Technology Officer in November 2025. O'Neill brings over 30 years of engineering leadership experience and has been instrumental in advancing the company's AI strategy while keeping quality and security at the center of every product release.
Expanding the Ecosystem: Partners and Regulated Industries
In February 2026, FormAssembly launched an enhanced Partner Program purpose-built for compliance-driven environments. Unlike generic reseller programs, this initiative is specifically designed for partners serving regulated sectors — public sector agencies, hospitals, universities, and financial institutions — where governance and security are non-negotiable.
Thomas Urie, President and COO of FormAssembly, emphasized the critical gap the program addresses: organizations in regulated industries are under intense pressure to modernize legacy paper-based workflows, but cannot afford to expand their compliance risk in the process. FormAssembly's partner network now provides the bridge between modernization ambition and secure execution.
