LeapXpert acquires AI startup StartADAM a cross-platform messaging
Acquisition boosts Communication Intelligence solution, strengthens Slack integration, adds Discord functionality, and powers enterprise platform's CRM connectivity.
LeapXpert, the responsible business communication leader, announced the acquisition of StartADAM, a cross-platform messaging startup. The deal expands LeapXpertâs product and leadership with advanced AI capabilities, new messaging channels, and enterprise-grade CRM integrations. As part of the transaction, all StartADAM assets, the StartADAM team, IP, and product, will be absorbed by LeapXpert.
The acquisition brings several product enhancements to The LeapXpert Communications Platform:
- Communication Intelligence enhancements: With the addition of StartADAMâs AI technology, MaxenâLeapXpertâs intelligence layerânow delivers even deeper real-time and agentic analysis, summarization, and insightsâturning everyday conversations into actionable intelligence across the enterprise.
- Governed messaging through Discord: As Discord gains popularity in business environments, LeapXpert is preparing to add it as a supported channel within its platform. This future integration will extend existing coverage, which already includes WhatsApp, iMessage, SMS, Telegram, Signal, WeChat, and LINE.
- Deep Slack integration: This will power a more seamless Governed Mode for Slack, enabling corporate users to communicate with clients via consumer messaging apps like WhatsApp, without leaving their native Slack environment. The strengthened Slack option joins LeapXertâs robust solution for external messaging through Microsoft Teams and Leap Work (its own messaging application).
- Three CRM Integrations: Last, StartADAM brings native two-way sync between messaging platforms and leading CRMsâSalesforce, HubSpot, and Microsoft Dynamics. Enterprises can now ensure that contact data, communication history, and conversation context flow both between CRMs and messaging channels. This closed loop enables better personalization, enriched conversations, and full visibilityâessential for scaling client engagement while maintaining governance and continuity.

"This is a natural evolution for our product and mission," said Dima Gutzeit, Founder and CEO of LeapXpert. "StartADAMâs innovations in AI, Slack, Discord, and CRM will be deeply embedded into our platformâunlocking powerful new capabilities for our customers. Itâs another important step as we scale the platform across new verticals, channels, and intelligence layers."
"StartADAM shares our belief in intelligent, responsible business communication," said Avi Pardo, Co-Founder and CBO of LeapXpert. "The team and technology align perfectly with our vision. Weâre excited to welcome our new team members as we continue expanding globallyâorganically, and through acquisitionâto deliver the most complete solution for governing modern communication channels."
"We built StartADAM to reduce friction in business communications and add a layer of collective intelligence to conversations," said Adam Stone, Co-Founder of StartADAM. "Joining LeapXpert gives us the reach and infrastructure to deliver on that mission at a global, enterprise scale."

This acquisition comes several months after LeapXpert announced a Series B led by Portage, and follows several major growth and recognition milestones, including being named a Visionary in the 2025 GartnerŽ Magic Quadrant⢠for Digital Communications Governance & Archiving (DCGA), ranking on the 2025 Inc. Regionals Northeast and the 2024 Deloitte Technology Fast 500, and winning UC Platform of the Year at the UC Awards 2024.
