I as more asking what you were using to get the data... as the only native ways are server actions or route handlers (in app dir, otherwise its only api routes)... but in those ones, you need to make your own custom method... this could be zod as suggested of just some if statements (zod i would say is better)

I was just interested if next.js had similar way for validating form data
Server Actions or Route Handlers are the only way.
In both of those you will probably have to use something like Zod
