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

The reason this quote request exists.
Speed-to-quote wins · webhooks into AgencyZoom / EZLynx / Applied / Vertafore.
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.
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.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 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 — 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 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.
What every field actually does.
Each field below ships in the quote request template — rename, remove, or add your own. Splitforms accepts any name you POST.
Name
Greeting + dashboard label so submissions don't all read 'anonymous'.
Reply-to address — splitforms wires this so hitting reply goes back to the sender.
Phone
Faster qualification — phone leads convert ~3× higher than email-only on B2B forms.
Company
Lets you sort enterprise vs SMB inquiries before you reply.
Budget
Filters tire-kickers from real buyers without a sales call.
