Patrick Fingles grew a successful roofing company with hundreds of employees in the Baltimore-Washington DC area. In 2013, they created their own software to help new salespeople estimate, quote, and close new roofing sales. They started selling the software to other contractors in 2016 and called it Leap.

Leap grew fast to $7 million ARR in 2021 with Patrick as the CEO. In 2021, they decided to take some growth funding from Nexa Equity to give Patrick and his cofounders their "first bite" of successful liquidity and support future growth and acquisitions.

Leap is now the leading contractor management software with CRM, project management, and point-of-sale functionality specifically designed for the unique needs of home improvement contractor and remodelers in the U.S. Leap is now over $20 million in ARR with over 150 employees and full-time contractors and is still growing fast.
