Born in a bookshop, in the busiest week of the year.
Leaption began in a bookshop in the middle of the back-to-school rush. Hundreds of families, each with a different list. Books arriving from different suppliers on different days: a few this morning, more next week, some not at all. Every box through the door raised the same question.
Whose are these?
The answer lived in a notebook, a spreadsheet and the memory of whoever was working that day. Customers rang to ask if their order was in, and nobody could say for sure. Good staff spent their days sorting and phoning when they should have been selling.
Leaption was built to fix that. Today it does the same job for independent shops of every kind: wherever a customer is waiting on something you promised them, Leaption makes sure they get it.
