§ 00Nuxt + Quote Requestplatform-specific integration guide

Why Nuxt developers choose splitforms for quote request

Nuxt 3's auto-imports and server routes make it easy to add form handling, but setting up a server-side submission pipeline (SMTP, spam checks, database, dashboard) is still a significant project. The quote request on this page uses <code>useState</code> for submit state and a <code>fetch</code> POST to splitforms — no server route, no Nitro engine dependency, no SMTP configuration. Because the form posts directly from the browser, it works identically on static hosting (Netlify, Cloudflare Pages) and on Nuxt's server-rendered pages.

§ 00Quick answerHTML · lead capture

Yes — this is the shortest safe path for Nuxt.

Use the HTML snippet on this page, keep the quote request fields visible in your Nuxt 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 nuxt reality

Nuxt 3's Nitro server gives you /server/api/contact.post.ts for free — write a handler, parse FormData, send email, store the submission, fan out a webhook.

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
01

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.

02

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.

03

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.

§ 03cNuxt production notesnative path · deploy · gotchas

What changes when this quote request lives in Nuxt.

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

without splitforms

Nuxt 3's Nitro server gives you /server/api/contact.post.ts for free — write a handler, parse FormData, send email, store the submission, fan out a webhook. The DX is good; the operational cost is the same as any framework: an SMTP integration (Nodemailer + a transactional provider), a Postgres or KV store for submissions, anti-spam logic (honeypot + classifier or hCaptcha), and webhook signing if you want secure delivery to Slack/Discord/Make.com. Each feature is another deploy artifact, another env var, another thing to monitor. Splitforms is the inverse: skip the /server/api route entirely (post directly from the page), or proxy through a one-line Nitro route to keep the key server-side.

deploy notes

Nuxt's Nitro server abstracts away deployment — pick a preset (vercel, netlify, cloudflare-pages, cloudflare-workers, node-server, static, aws-lambda, digital-ocean) and ship. The form's POST is cross-origin to splitforms, so the preset doesn't affect delivery. On Cloudflare Workers (10ms CPU on free tier), strongly prefer Pattern A — Pattern B's $fetch round-trip can blow the budget under load. Use runtimeConfig.public.splitformsKey (client-exposed) for Pattern A and runtimeConfig.splitformsKey (server-only) for Pattern B. Both populate from NUXT_PUBLIC_SPLITFORMS_KEY / NUXT_SPLITFORMS_KEY env vars.

Nuxt gotcha

runtimeConfig.public is required for client exposure — `runtimeConfig.x` is server-only

Nuxt's runtimeConfig has two scopes. Anything under runtimeConfig.public is exposed to the browser bundle; anything else is server-only. If you put splitformsKey directly in runtimeConfig (not .public), useRuntimeConfig().splitformsKey returns undefined client-side.

Nuxt gotcha

useRuntimeConfig() called outside setup() returns empty object

Calling useRuntimeConfig() inside a regular function (not inside <script setup> or a composable) returns {}. Always call it at the top of <script setup> and capture the value, then use config.public.splitformsKey inside event handlers.

Nuxt gotcha

Nitro Cloudflare preset has 10ms CPU time on the free plan

If you proxy the splitforms call through a Nuxt server route (/server/api/contact.post.ts), the fetch round-trip eats your Cloudflare Worker CPU budget. On Cloudflare Pages Free tier, this can fail under load. Skip the proxy: have the form POST directly to splitforms.com.

Nuxt gotcha

Nuxt Content's <ContentDoc> rendering can break form HTML

If you embed the form in a Markdown file rendered by Nuxt Content, MDC syntax may interpret your inputs as MDC components. Wrap the form in <NuxtContent> (or use :component="ContactForm") instead of inline form HTML.

PATTERN A

Pattern A — direct browser POST from `<script setup>`

No server route. Page reads the access key from useRuntimeConfig().public.splitformsKey. Works identically on every Nitro preset. Use the same wiring for the quote request fields on this page.

pattern-a.txtvue18 lines
01<script setup>
02import { ref } from "vue";
03const status = ref("idle");
04const config = useRuntimeConfig();
05async function onSubmit(e) {
06 status.value = "loading";
07 const fd = new FormData(e.target);
08 fd.append("access_key", config.public.splitformsKey);
09 const r = await fetch("https://splitforms.com/api/submit", { method: "POST", body: fd });
10 status.value = (await r.json()).success ? "ok" : "err";
11}

15 <input name="email" type="email" required />
16 <button :disabled="status === 'loading'">Send</button>
17 </form>
18</template>
PATTERN B

Pattern B — Nitro server route (key stays server-side)

Page posts to /api/contact (a Nitro route) which appends the access key from runtimeConfig.splitformsKey (private) and proxies to splitforms. Adds a hop but the key never reaches the browser bundle. Use the same wiring for the quote request fields on this page.

pattern-b.txtvue11 lines
01// server/api/contact.post.ts
02export default defineEventHandler(async (event) => {
03 const config = useRuntimeConfig();
04 const parts = await readMultipartFormData(event);
05 const fd = new FormData();
06 for (const p of parts ?? []) p.name && fd.append(p.name, p.data.toString("utf8"));
07 fd.append("access_key", config.splitformsKey);
08 const res = await $fetch("https://splitforms.com/api/submit", { method: "POST", body: fd });
09 if (!res.success) throw createError({ statusCode: 400, message: res.message });
10 return { ok: true };

§ 06Questions9 answered

Quote Request on NuxtFAQ.

Direct answers, no marketing fluff. Missing one? Email hello@splitforms.com.

01Does this quote request work on Nuxt?
Yes. The form is plain HTML with a single POST endpoint, so it runs on any Nuxt site without server-side code, plugins, or SDKs. Drop the snippet into a Nuxt page or component and submissions land in your splitforms dashboard.
02How much does the quote request cost on Nuxt?
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.
03Can 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.
04How 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 Nuxt as on any other framework.
05Can 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.
06Will it work on a static Nuxt 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.
07How 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.
08Do 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.
09Can 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.
