Verdict
Leanware is on this page for the owner whose problem has gone past a workflow tool. Its agent page is written for teams that outgrew Lindy, Gumloop and Zapier Agents, and it builds custom AI agents and runs them as a managed service. It also prints more of its price structure than any custom builder we read: a fixed Sprint 0 of $5,000 to $15,000 over two to four weeks, support from $1,682 a month for 42 hours with 30 days notice, and a dedicated engineer from about $6,000 a month. You can exit at any milestone and keep everything delivered. It ranks sixth because it is in Bogota, not the United States, and the agent fee itself is unpriced.
What customers praise
The milestone model with an exit at any point is the most buyer friendly contract structure on this page. Named clients include the University of Colorado, Groundlight, Notary.io and Elephant CPA. It says plainly who it is not for: enterprise procurement and hourly freelance staffing.
What customers criticise
The AI agent service is a setup fee plus a monthly fee with no figure published. Its homepage says you are never billed by the hour, while support is sold as a block of 42 hours. A dedicated engineer carries a directional six month minimum. It builds software, so an owner who wants a few Zaps fixed is overpaying here.
Best for
A United States small or mid sized company that has outgrown no code tools such as Zapier Agents or Lindy and wants a custom AI agent built and run as a managed service, with a fixed price discovery sprint first.
Red flags
Public risk signals as of October 2026: none. Live firm. Sprint 0 at $5,000 to $15,000, support from $1,682 a month for 42 hours and a dedicated engineer from about $6,000 a month read on leanware.co/resources/engagement-models on 8 October 2026. Not the same company as Leanware Oy, by its own homepage. No adverse public signals found. See the full red-flag report.
