What makes Leapfrog AI different
First system live in 90 days
Consultancies like Accenture and Deloitte often scope transformation programs over 12 to 18 months. Leapfrog AI ships one working system first and grows from there.
Fixed prices, no lock-in
Leapfrog AI quotes a fixed price before work starts: €1K, €3K, or from €20K. Partnerships run month to month.
You own what gets built
Leapfrog AI builds on your stack and hands you the code. Intercom Fin, Zendesk AI and Zapier leave setup to your team and bill per resolution or per task.
Founders on every project
Both co-founders work on every Leapfrog AI project. Nobody hands you to a junior team after the sales call.
GDPR compliant by default
Leapfrog AI is EU-based, and every project runs under NDA with GDPR-compliant data handling.
Who uses Leapfrog AI
- Mid-market companies with €100M to €500M in annual revenue
- Operations, support and finance leads who need AI in production without hiring an AI team
- IT and digital teams whose AI backlog keeps slipping to next quarter
- EU companies that need GDPR-compliant AI, and US companies expanding into Europe
Industries Manufacturing Financial services Healthcare Logistics Retail and e-commerce Hospitality
The team behind Leapfrog AI
Leapfrog AI started in 2024 because mid-market companies kept getting two bad options: an 18-month consulting program or a DIY tool nobody had time to set up.
Jerry and Adrian have been friends for more than 10 years.
