How should Fellow conversations attach to Leap jobs?

Each conversation needs to land on the right job, matched by contact or project. With a manual or connector setup you define and maintain that rule yourself, and conversations from new contacts get dropped or create thin duplicate jobs. Frontdesk handles the matching and job creation for you, so the project manager never re-keys it.

How do I connect Fellow to Leap for free?

Most free paths route Fellow through a connector's free tier into Leap, which caps how many syncs you get and rarely handles new-lead creation well. The cheaper question is whether you need the two-tool setup at all, or whether an AI CRM that ingests meeting notes and action items natively would replace both.

Why do some Fellow conversations never show up in Leap?

Almost always a matching failure. Fellow could not tie the conversation to a Leap job by contact or project, so it had nowhere to put it. New contacts, unknown numbers, and reformatted data are the usual culprits, and they are exactly the conversations you most wanted to keep.

Is there a better alternative to wiring Fellow into Leap?

Yes. Frontdesk is an AI CRM that ingests calls, meetings, texts, and emails on its own, writes the contact record, scores the lead, and creates the follow-up. There is nothing to map and no channel left out, because capturing every conversation is the product rather than an add-on.

Will the full transcript clutter my Leap records?

Often, yes. Dumping raw meeting notes and action items onto a Leap note makes records long and hard to scan. Frontdesk instead writes a short, structured summary to the timeline and keeps the full transcript one click away, so the record stays readable.

How to connect Fellow to Leap

Fellow captures meeting notes, agendas, and action items and records calls for later review. Leap is a CRM and estimating tool for home improvement contractors. The promise of connecting the two is simple: every conversation should end up on the right leads and projects in Leap, automatically. In a company, that means each job should carry the full conversation, not a note someone may or may not have logged. Below is how to wire Fellow into Leap, where that setup tends to break, and why a growing number of teams skip the integration entirely.

Connecting Fellow to Leap, step by step

Here is the realistic version of the setup, including the parts the marketing pages skip. Fellow records and summarizes meeting notes and action items; the job is getting that onto the right Leap job without creating a mess.

Connect Fellow to Leap

In Fellow, open the integrations or apps settings and look for Leap. Authorize the connection with an admin account that has permission to write leads and projects in Leap.

Map fields and choose what syncs

Decide which meeting notes and action items should land on the Leap record: full transcript, AI summary, action items, or just a link back. Map each to a field or note in Leap so nothing overwrites existing data.

Match meetings to the right job

Fellow has to figure out which Leap job a meeting belongs to, usually by matching attendee contact or project. Verify the rule, because a meeting that matches no job quietly goes nowhere.

Test with one real meeting

Record or import one meeting, let the sync run, and open the matched job in Leap. Confirm the summary, attendees, and timestamp all arrived where you expect.

Decide what happens to unmatched jobs

A meeting with an unknown participant or a brand-new contact often will not match an existing Leap job. Set a fallback (create one, or send to a review queue) so those jobs are not lost.

Why connecting Fellow and Leap breaks down

Matching is brittle. Fellow ties a conversation to a Leap job by contact or project. Every mismatch, new contact, or reformatted detail silently breaks the link, and you only notice when a job stalls.

You are syncing a blob, not a job. A transcript dropped on a Leap note is searchable at best. It does not advance the job, fill the fields, or tell the project manager what to do next.

Net-new jobs fall through. The whole point of capturing meeting notes and action items is the unknown caller, yet that is exactly the conversation with no Leap job to attach to.

Someone still has to read it. The integration moves text into Leap. The project manager still has to open it, summarize it, update the job, and create the follow-up. The data entry did not go away, it just moved.

It is one channel of many. Even a flawless Fellow-to-Leap sync ignores the calls, texts, and emails on every other tool, so the job's full story stays split across a dozen apps.

A better way

The AI-native way: skip the glue entirely

Here is the uncomfortable truth. The entire job of connecting Fellow to Leap only exists because your CRM cannot hear. It sits there empty until a human, or a brittle integration, feeds it. In a world where AI can listen to a call and understand it, maintaining plumbing between a recorder and a database is busywork.

Frontdesk is an AI CRM built for that world. Instead of bolting Fellow onto Leap and praying the matching holds, Frontdesk ingests your calls, video meetings, texts, emails, and chats directly. It reads each one, updates the job, scores intent and fit, drafts the follow-up, and even runs the outbound. For a company, the job stays current on its own. The conversation becomes pipeline without anyone touching a field.

Auto-ingests every conversation

Calls, video meetings, texts, emails, web chats, and forms flow in on their own. There is no Fellow-to-Leap mapping to maintain because capture is the default, not a plugin.

Writes the job, not a transcript

Frontdesk reads each conversation, updates the job, scores intent and fit, and drafts the next step. The project manager gets a finished job, not a wall of text to read later.

One timeline per job

Every channel lands on a single job timeline, so the call, the follow-up text, and the email that came three weeks later all sit in one place.

Acts on what it hears

It does not stop at logging. Frontdesk books the meeting, sends the follow-up, and runs the outbound, so the conversation moves the job instead of sitting in a note.

FAQ

Fellow to Leap FAQs

Common questions about connecting Fellow and Leap, and the AI-native alternative.

Contact support

Sometimes. Fellow records and summarizes meeting notes and action items, and depending on the plan it may offer a native Leap connection or rely on a connector like Zapier or Make. Either way you are responsible for field mapping, record matching, and deciding what happens to conversations that do not match an existing Leap job.
