LeadGasket vs AutoLeap

Q: What if it doesn't work out?

Email support@leadgasket.com within your first 30 days and we refund 110% of what you paid for your plan. Usage charges are not refunded, the guarantee is one refund per business, and a refund closes your account. After 30 days, cancel by emailing us at least 7 days before your renewal date.

AutoLeap is a shop management system: estimates, repair orders, digital inspections, parts and payments, with texting built in from its Pro plan. LeadGasket is a front-of-house platform: website, web chat, texting, booking, review requests, campaigns and phones. They overlap in AutoLeap's Marketing Suite, its done-for-you marketing services and its AIR receptionist. This page shows where, with prices from each company's own website on October 22, 2026.

The short version

LeadGasket does not replace AutoLeap. Nothing in LeadGasket writes a repair order, runs a digital inspection, orders parts or takes a payment at the counter. If you run AutoLeap, you keep it. What LeadGasket competes with is AutoLeap's Marketing Suite (campaigns, reminders and website booking) and its Digital Marketing Services (a website, SEO, social media, reputation and Google Ads done by AutoLeap's team), both priced on request, plus the two-way texting that AutoLeap's pricing page puts in Pro at $349 a month.

If you want reminders keyed to service history and mileage, declined work that comes back up when the customer rebooks, and a team that builds your website and runs your ads for you, AutoLeap sells that. If an AI receptionist is the main thing you want, AutoLeap AIR at $99 a month for 200 calls is the lower price, and it works with any shop software. LeadGasket is the better fit if you want published prices and month-to-month terms, and the tools AutoLeap does not list on its website: a website and funnels you edit yourself, web chat, missed-call text-back, Facebook Messenger in the same inbox, sales pipelines and a social media planner, from $97 a month plus usage. Nothing syncs between the two: your customer list comes over as a spreadsheet, and your front desk adds new LeadGasket customers to AutoLeap when the car comes in.

Choose AutoLeap's add-ons if

You want reminders and campaigns that run from service history, mileage and declined work inside AutoLeap, without entering anything twice.
You want a website, SEO, social media and Google Ads handled for you by AutoLeap's team, and you are fine getting the price as a quote.
You want an AI receptionist at $99 a month for 200 calls that books straight into your AutoLeap calendar.
You are already on Pro or Elite, so two-way texting and Google Reviews are in your plan.

Choose LeadGasket if

You are on AutoLeap Essentials and want two-way texting, online booking, a website, web chat and missed-call text-back for $97 a month plus usage.
You want published prices, month-to-month terms, a 30-day 110% money-back guarantee and a 45-minute onboarding call, instead of a quote and a contract.
You want new-customer tools AutoLeap does not list on its website: funnels and landing pages, forms, sales pipelines, a social media planner you post from and Facebook Messenger in the same inbox.
You want every missed call texted back automatically, on every plan.

What each costs, like for like

Monthly list prices from each pricing page on October 22, 2026. Example: a shop on AutoLeap Essentials ($199) that wants two-way texting, online booking, review requests and campaigns.

AutoLeap only

Move from Essentials to Pro, which adds two-way texting: $349

Or Elite, which also adds integrated Google Reviews: $449

Marketing Suite (booking, reminders, campaigns): Quote

Per month, per shop: $449 plus a quote

AutoLeap publishes no price for the Marketing Suite or Digital Marketing Services, so this side cannot be totaled from its website. A one-time setup fee applies, amount on request. Billed annually, Elite is $409.

AutoLeap Essentials plus LeadGasket

AutoLeap Essentials (repair orders, inspections, parts, one-way texting): $199

LeadGasket Professional (texting, booking, website, web chat, missed-call text-back, review requests, campaigns, social planner, invoicing, call tracking): $397

Text, call and email usage (most shops): $20 to $75

Per month: $616 to $671

Essential at $97 covers texting, booking, the website, web chat and missed-call text-back: $316 to $371 with Essentials. Review requests and campaigns start on Professional.

What can be compared from the two websites: two-way texting costs $150 a month more on AutoLeap (Pro over Essentials) and $97 plus usage on LeadGasket, and an AI receptionist costs less on AutoLeap (AIR, $99 a month for 200 calls) than on LeadGasket's Voice AI plan at $399, which bundles everything in Professional. AutoLeap's reminders and campaigns read your repair orders; LeadGasket's run by date and tag. What LeadGasket adds at any plan level is the new-customer side: funnels, forms, pipelines, Messenger and the social planner.

Running AutoLeap and LeadGasket together

There is no switch here. AutoLeap stays. Here is how the two run side by side:

1. AutoLeap keeps estimates, repair orders, inspections, parts, invoices and payments, and on Pro and up its texting for repair updates and approvals.

2. Export your customer list from AutoLeap as a spreadsheet: name, phone and email. We import it on your 45-minute onboarding call and set up your LeadGasket number, booking calendar, website, web chat and missed-call text-back.

3. Decide which number does what. On Essentials, LeadGasket is your two-way texting. On Pro or Elite, AutoLeap texts about the repair in front of you and LeadGasket handles web chat, booking, missed calls and marketing to new leads. Customers will see two numbers, so tell them.

4. If you also buy the Marketing Suite, send review requests and reminders from one system only, so nobody is asked twice.

5. Nothing syncs. AutoLeap opens its API to partners it approves, so a connection would need AutoLeap's agreement. Today, when a customer books or texts through LeadGasket, your front desk adds them to AutoLeap when the car comes in.

What you give up compared with AutoLeap's add-ons: reminders keyed to service history and mileage, declined work shown at rebooking, campaign reports tied to repair orders, and an AI receptionist that books into your AutoLeap calendar. Reminders in LeadGasket run by date, from your calendar or the tags you put on customers.

Questions shops ask

Can LeadGasket replace AutoLeap?

No. AutoLeap runs the shop floor: estimates, repair orders, inspections, parts, labor guides, time clocks and payments. LeadGasket has none of that. It stands in for AutoLeap's Marketing Suite and marketing services: booking, two-way texting, review requests, campaigns and a website, plus web chat, missed-call text-back, funnels, pipelines and a social planner.

Does LeadGasket connect to AutoLeap?

No. Nothing syncs. Your customer list comes in from a spreadsheet, and new customers are added when they book, text, call or fill out a form. AutoLeap's integrations page offers its platform to partners it approves, and LeadGasket has not built a connection.

I'm on AutoLeap Essentials. How do I get two-way texting?

AutoLeap's pricing page lists two-way texting from Pro, $349 a month as of October 22, 2026; Essentials has one-way texting. LeadGasket Essential includes two-way texting at $97 a month from a LeadGasket number, plus usage. Most shops pay $20 to $75 a month in text, call and email usage.

What does AutoLeap's Marketing Suite cost?

AutoLeap does not publish a price for it, or for its Digital Marketing Services, as of October 22, 2026; both are quoted. The pricing page lists email and SMS campaigns, automated reminders, a CRM dashboard, website booking and Google Book Online under the Marketing Suite, while AutoLeap's CRM page describes retention tools as included. Ask AutoLeap for the price in writing and which plan it needs. LeadGasket's equivalent is Professional at $397 a month, with the price on our pricing page.

Does either one answer the phone?

AutoLeap AIR answers calls 24 hours a day, captures the caller's details and places appointment requests on the AutoLeap calendar. It costs $1 a call with no minimum, or $99 a month for 200 calls and $199 for 500, and AutoLeap says it works with any shop software. LeadGasket texts back every missed call on every plan, and the Voice AI plan at $399 a month adds an AI receptionist that answers calls and books appointments, with everything in Professional included.

What if it doesn't work out?

Email [email protected] within your first 30 days and we refund 110% of what you paid for your plan. Usage charges are not refunded, the guarantee is one refund per business, and a refund closes your account. After 30 days, cancel by emailing us at least 7 days before your renewal date.
