Build Search Forms the Gravity Forms Way

No separate builder. No proprietary interface. Build search experiences using the same Gravity Forms workflow you already know

One of the core goals behind Gravity Search was keeping the experience familiar.

Unlike many directory and search solutions, Gravity Search doesn't introduce a separate builder or proprietary interface. Search forms are created using the standard Gravity Forms builder, making it easy to build and manage search experiences using tools you already know.

Simply create a search form, select a target form, configure your filters, and start displaying searchable results powered by Gravity Forms entries.
