New York, NY: LeapXpert, a provider of Governed Communication Intelligence, has announced that it has secured $180 million in a growth investment round led by Riverwood Capital, marking a significant milestone in the company’s efforts to advance AI-powered enterprise communications.
The new funding will enable LeapXpert to accelerate its mission of making enterprise conversations across modern messaging channels governed, intelligent, and actionable.
The company said the investment will strengthen its platform capabilities, support expansion across key industries, and grow its leadership team.
As enterprise communication increasingly shifts to messaging platforms such as WhatsApp, iMessage, Signal, and WeChat, organizations are facing new operational, regulatory, and security challenges.
These conversations, which often drive customer relationships, sales, and problem resolution, have historically remained outside enterprise systems, limiting organizations’ ability to govern and utilize valuable communication data.
According to LeapXpert, the combination of artificial intelligence and enterprise governance is transforming these conversations into strategic business assets by enabling organizations to securely capture, govern, and derive actionable insights from customer interactions.
“The first generation of enterprise communication software archived conversations. The next governed them. The latest uses AI to unlock value from every interaction,” said Jeff Parks, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Riverwood Capital.
“LeapXpert leads that progression today, and no one is better positioned for what comes next. Riverwood Capital is excited to join the board, support the company’s next phase of growth, and work with Co-Founders Dima, Avi, and the rest of the team to drive their vision forward.”

Today, LeapXpert serves hundreds of organizations, including major financial institutions, government agencies, and global enterprises.
The company has continued to gain industry recognition, having been named a Visionary in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Digital Communications Governance and Archiving for two consecutive years.
It also earned a place in the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 in both 2024 and 2025 and was recently included in the Financial Times’ 2026 list of the Fastest-Growing Companies in America.
Dima Gutzeit, Founder and CEO of LeapXpert, said: “Messaging is where business happens now. The next wave of enterprise value will come from making those conversations trusted, connected, and actionable.
But AI can only work with what enterprises can see and govern. Our mission is to give every organization the infrastructure to govern their conversations and the intelligence to act on them.”
The company highlighted that its platform has expanded beyond its initial focus on financial services and is now witnessing rapid adoption across government organizations and large enterprises.
“Financial services were our proving ground. Government became our fastest-growing segment. The Forbes Global 2000 is the third wave, and it has arrived,” said Avi Pardo, Co-Founder and Chief Business Officer (CBO) of LeapXpert.
“The driver shifts vertical by vertical, but the underlying problem doesn’t: every enterprise needs its customer conversations governed and maximized. The partnership with Riverwood Capital lets us meet that demand everywhere.”
Existing investor Portage Ventures also reaffirmed its confidence in the company and the growing importance of governed enterprise communications in the AI era.
“LeapXpert saw years before most of the market that enterprise messaging would evolve from a compliance challenge into a strategic data asset. Today, the company sits at the center of one of the largest untapped sources of enterprise intelligence: trusted, governed customer conversations.
As AI reshapes how organizations operate, that foundation becomes increasingly valuable, and LeapXpert is the infrastructure layer making it actionable. Our continued investment reflects our conviction in the team, the category they have created, and the scale of the opportunity ahead,” said Ricky Lai, General Partner at existing investor Portage Ventures.
With the fresh capital, LeapXpert plans to further enhance its platform’s AI capabilities to better understand and act on governed conversations.
The company will also accelerate its expansion across financial services, the public sector, and broader enterprise markets while strengthening its senior leadership team.
