QUOTE REQUEST · ELEVENTY

Quote Request for Eleventy

Q: Does this quote request work on Eleventy?

Yes. The form is plain HTML with a single POST endpoint, so it runs on any Eleventy site without server-side code, plugins, or SDKs. Drop the snippet into a Eleventy page or component and submissions land in your splitforms dashboard.

Q: How much does the quote request cost on Eleventy?

Free for 500 submissions per month — no credit card, no trial. Pro is $5/mo for 5,000 submissions, and there's a one-time $59 3-year plan (15,000 submissions/mo for 36 months). The same pricing applies regardless of which framework hosts the form.

Q: Can I customize the fields?

Yes. The template ships with sensible defaults (name, email, phone, company…) — add, remove, or rename any of them. Splitforms accepts whatever fields you POST.

Q: How does spam protection work on the quote request?

A hidden honeypot field catches dumb bots, and a tuned classifier scores the rest. You only see real submissions in your dashboard. No CAPTCHA, no friction for human users — and it works the same on Eleventy as on any other framework.

Q: Can I send the quote request submissions to Slack or Discord?

Yes. Webhooks are available on Starter and above, with auto-formatted payloads for Slack, Discord, and WhatsApp (via CallMeBot). Or send raw signed JSON to any URL — Zapier, n8n, your own server. Configure in the splitforms dashboard.

Q: Will it work on a static Eleventy site?

Yes — the form posts directly to splitforms from the browser, so no server is involved. Works on Vercel, Netlify, GitHub Pages, Cloudflare Pages, S3, or any plain Apache host.

Q: How do I route by line of business?

The line-of-business multi-select drives the webhook branch. Auto/home (P&C) goes to one Slack channel and AMS workflow; life goes to another (often a different licensed producer); commercial / business goes to a third. Most agencies have specialists per line — the form respects that org structure.

Q: Do I need to mention E&O on the form?

Not on the form itself, but the auto-responder and quote PDFs should reference your agency's E&O coverage and licensing. State insurance departments require disclosure of license numbers in marketing — add to the site footer at minimum, the form's thank-you page ideally.

Q: Can I integrate with AgencyZoom / EZLynx / Applied Epic / Vertafore?

Yes — webhook the JSON. AgencyZoom and EZLynx accept inbound leads via direct webhooks; Applied Epic and Vertafore (HawkSoft) accept via Zapier or their respective AMS APIs. The quote pre-loads with line, current carrier, and renewal date — saves the producer 5-10 minutes per quote.

Lead-capture form for agencies, freelancers, and service businesses. Free for 500 submissions per month — no backend, no SDK, no plugin.

§ 00Eleventy + Quote Requestplatform-specific integration guide

Why Eleventy developers choose splitforms for quote request

Eleventy (11ty) is a flexible static site generator that lets you use any templating language, but it doesn't process form submissions — the output is static HTML. Adding a Node server or a Netlify function just for a contact form defeats the simplicity that makes Eleventy appealing. The quote request on this page posts from the browser to splitforms, so your Eleventy site stays static. It works with Nunjucks, Handlebars, Liquid, Markdown, and every Eleventy template language because the form is plain HTML.

§ 00Quick answerHTML · lead capture

Yes — this is the shortest safe path for Eleventy.

Use the HTML snippet on this page, keep the quote request fields visible in your Eleventy UI, and let splitforms handle delivery, spam filtering, storage, and webhooks.

best implementation

Paste the HTML version, then replace YOUR_ACCESS_KEY.

The posted payload contains name, email, phone, company, budget, tell us about the project. Required fields are name, email, phone, budget and tell us about the project.

native eleventy reality

Eleventy is a Node-based static site generator — it produces HTML at build time and ships nothing else.

use case fit

Insurance leads are speed-to-quote sensitive — the broker that gets the quote out within an hour of inquiry wins the bind. The form captures line of business and renewal date so the quote process starts immediately.

§ 03bInsurance Broker Quote Request Formtemplate-specific playbook

The reason this quote request exists.

Speed-to-quote wins · webhooks into AgencyZoom / EZLynx / Applied / Vertafore.

why it matters

Independent insurance brokers compete with direct carriers (Geico, Progressive, State Farm) and lead-gen platforms (LendingTree Insurance, EverQuote) — the win is speed-to-quote and personal touch. Brokers earn 10-15% commission on auto/home premiums and 50-100%+ on life policies (year-1). The form captures line of business (auto / home / life / business / umbrella / multi-line), current carrier, renewal date, and basic data (driver count / property address / business revenue depending on line). Speed matters: quotes delivered within 4 hours of inquiry close at 35-45%, vs 10-15% for next-day quotes. Webhook into AgencyZoom / EZLynx / Applied Epic so the AMS pre-loads the quote workflow.

route the submission

Capture line of business

Required: line(s) of business (auto / home / life / business / umbrella / health / multi-line — multi-select), current carrier, current renewal date, primary contact info.

Branch by line

Webhook routes by line — auto/home goes to the P&C team queue, life goes to the life specialist, business / commercial goes to the producer who handles BOPs and umbrellas. Different quote workflows, different carriers.

Quote within hours

Webhook to AgencyZoom / EZLynx / Applied Epic — the AMS pre-loads the quote with current carrier and renewal date. Speed-to-quote under 4 hours triples close rate vs next-day. SMS the quote link via Twilio for the highest urgency leads.

§ 03cEleventy production notesnative path · deploy · gotchas

What changes when this quote request lives in Eleventy.

These notes come from the Eleventy platform registry and are rendered on this template page so crawlers see the framework-specific answer without opening a separate guide.

without splitforms

Eleventy is a Node-based static site generator — it produces HTML at build time and ships nothing else. There is no runtime, no /api/contact endpoint, no hooks for handling a form POST. The historical workarounds: (a) deploy to Netlify and use Netlify Forms, (b) write a Cloudflare Worker that handles POST /contact and forwards to your email provider (~4 hours plus ongoing operation), or (c) use a third-party form API (Formspree, Web3Forms, Basin, splitforms). Eleventy's data cascade lets you neatly pull an access key from _data/site.js and use it in a Nunjucks/Liquid include — but the actual delivery layer is always external. Splitforms is the lowest-friction external option.

deploy notes

Eleventy deploys to any static host. The form posts cross-origin to splitforms.com so the host is irrelevant for delivery. Eleventy v3's ESM-only config is the major upgrade gotcha — .eleventy.js (CommonJS) silently stops exposing globals; rename to eleventy.config.mjs. Local dev runs on localhost:8080 — add to splitforms allowed-domains for testing or use a separate dev key. _data/site.js (not .json) lets you read from process.env; keep .env in gitignore. For 11ty + Netlify (the classic combo), you can use Netlify Forms instead, but you cap out at 100/mo — splitforms gives 500/mo and works on every host.

Eleventy gotcha

Eleventy v3 is ESM-only — your config must be .mjs

If you upgraded to Eleventy 3 and your .eleventy.js (CommonJS) silently stopped exposing globals, that's why. Rename to eleventy.config.mjs and use ESM export default. Otherwise addGlobalData('splitformsKey', …) won't reach your templates.

Eleventy gotcha

Liquid filters and Nunjucks filters have different names

{{ '/thanks/' | url }} works in Nunjucks (with the eleventy-plugin-url plugin). In Liquid, the filter is | url_for or you skip the filter entirely and write the path literally. Mismatched filter names render nothing — the form's redirect URL becomes empty.

Eleventy gotcha

Global data with sensitive values gets committed by accident

If you put your access key in _data/site.json (the obvious place), it ships to your repo. Use _data/site.js and read from process.env.SPLITFORMS_KEY instead — then add .env to gitignore. Eleventy auto-loads .env if you have dotenv installed.

Eleventy gotcha

Permalinks: false on the contact page makes the redirect fail

If your contact page has permalink: false (rare but possible), it's not built — and splitforms's redirect target points at a 404. Always ensure both the form page and the /thanks page have valid permalinks.

PATTERN A

Pattern A — Nunjucks include from `_includes/partials/`

Save as src/_includes/partials/contact-form.njk. Use from any template with {% include "partials/contact-form.njk" %}. Pulls the key from a global data file that reads process.env.SPLITFORMS_KEY. Use the same wiring for the quote request fields on this page.

pattern-a.htmlhtml7 lines

01<form action="https://splitforms.com/api/submit" method="POST">
02  <input type="hidden" name="access_key" value="{{ splitformsKey }}" />
03  <input type="hidden" name="redirect"   value="{{ '/thanks/' | url }}" />
04  <input name="email" type="email" required />
05  <textarea name="message" required></textarea>
06  <button type="submit">Send</button>
07</form>

PATTERN B

Pattern B — Eleventy v3 ESM config

Eleventy 3 is ESM-only. Use eleventy.config.mjs and addGlobalData to wire the key from environment. Liquid templates work the same way — just save as .liquid. Use the same wiring for the quote request fields on this page.

pattern-b.htmlhtml6 lines

01// eleventy.config.mjs
02import "dotenv/config";
03export default function (config) {
04  config.addGlobalData("splitformsKey", process.env.SPLITFORMS_KEY);
05  return { dir: { input: "src", output: "_site" } };
