Both are for developers. Different scope.
Formspree is a form endpoint. You build the form in HTML, point it at a Formspree URL, submissions land in your inbox. It has been reliable for years. Hard to argue with that track record.
Sutrena is an API-first platform for pages, forms, and analytics. It creates the forms for you via API, hosts them, stores submissions, and runs automations on the data. AI agents can handle the whole flow through 67 MCP tools. More features, higher price. Whether that trade-off works depends on what you are building.
For AI agents, Sutrena has 67 MCP tools and a full REST API. Formspree was built for humans clicking buttons — it has a REST API you could use from an agent, but no MCP tools, no llms.txt, no automation pipelines.
