Competitive Landscape

Who Leapsome competes with, and how they differ.

Lattice7.6/10

Lattice grew from the same performance-and-engagement starting point as Leapsome before adding HRIS and compensation modules; it is US-headquartered and skews toward larger US mid-market and enterprise teams, while Leapsome's Berlin base and 2022 Insight Partners round have kept it stronger in European deployments.

Personio7.6/10

Personio is a Munich-founded, HR-core-first platform (payroll, contracts, time tracking, recruiting) for SMBs that added performance and engagement modules on top; Leapsome took the opposite path, building performance, OKRs, and engagement first and layering on HRIS features only since its 2022 Series A.

Culture Amp7.9/10

Culture Amp specializes in engagement-survey analytics and people-science research, overlapping Leapsome's engagement module, but it does not offer Leapsome's OKR/goal-tracking or growing HRIS layer.

15Five7.0/10

15Five is a San Francisco-based performance-and-engagement suite (reviews, OKRs, 1:1s, pulse surveys) similar in scope to Leapsome's original product, but it has not expanded into full HRIS the way Leapsome has since 2022.

HiBob6.8/10

HiBob (Bob) is an HRIS-first platform -- core employee records, payroll, time off -- that layers performance and engagement modules on top; it competes with Leapsome mainly where Leapsome's own 2026 ATS and AI-agent launches push into HR-core territory HiBob already owns.
