Add Word/Character Limit Validation for Multi Line Fields in Forms

It would be extremely helpful to have the ability to set character or word count limits on custom fields in forms — especially for long text fields like textareas. For example, being able to limit a "What can we help you with?" field to 200 words or 1200 characters would ensure responses remain concise and relevant.

Currently, the form builder doesn’t support this functionality. Since many businesses use embedded forms for onboarding, lead qualification, and applications, this limitation creates inconsistency in data collection and user experience.

Why this matters:

  • Improves response quality and relevance.

  • Prevents excessively long or off-topic answers.

  • Encourages cleaner, more focused input from leads.

  • Reduces manual filtering time for the team reviewing responses.

Feature request:

Add a setting for word or character limit per form field.

Optional: include real-time counter for users as they type.

This feature would be a huge win for usability and form quality across use cases!
