The easy way to get SME insights & turn them into content outlines

Leaps makes it super easy to gather deep insights from your subject matter experts (SMEs), and
turn them into detailed content outlines for articles, playbooks, case studies, newsletters, etc.
(No sign-ups required from your SMEs)

Zero learning curve needed.
No credit card required.

“We use a lot of in-house SMEs (Subject Matter Experts) at Hotjar, and it often became cumbersome on both sides to ask and receive questions and answers.

Leaps eliminates the hassle of organizing and creating SME files and documents, or arranging (usually unnecessary) calls.

(My favourite part of Leaps is) the ease of use! It’s just simpler and easier for everyone involved. It’s probably saving us at least an hour per event (and that’s from sending questions to SMEs, automating reminders for them, capturing their insights, and turning those insights into SME-driven content briefs and outlines).”

“In the past, I would message one of our SMEs (say our CEO, or another exec leader) and it would sometimes be crickets. They wouldn’t prioritize writing back. Possibly because Slack doesn’t give that deadline kind of feeling.

I think one of the super useful things with Leaps so far is setting up automatic email reminders. It puts the request at the top of their inbox every few days, and I’m also not having to chase them as often for their input.

Some feedback from our executive team on the platform: “(1) The questions were solid! (2) Easy peasy! I can definitely prioritize this (as in they can easily fit this into their schedule on a biweekly basis). (3) I like the voice feature (and leveraged it)”

“The best part is that Leaps combines your experts’ answers and suggests an outline for your content based on their insights.

I love AI, and I love using it to draft outlines. Leaps does this work for you. The outline is based on the experts’ responses. It saves so much time!

I’m a big fan so far, and we’ve been able to get our most stubborn clients back on a consistent publishing schedule.”

“Leaps helps us get better SME insights and streamlines the entire process by 1000%.

Prior to using Leaps, we manually collected SME insights, which for me often meant setting alarms in my calendar to remind myself to follow-up with all the SMEs. The follow-up process alone was quite time-consuming.

And if I forgot to follow-up, it meant delayed SME input. I also felt like a nuisance following-up with people, and I love that Leaps has a built-in feature to follow-up. The depth (of SME insights) is fantastic! Much more than we got when we asked in Slack… People tend to (share) more in-depth answers in Leaps.

“I usually do 1:1 live interviews with SMEs or async interviews via email. The biggest issue with the latter is that you have an email thread that can get really long—especially if you’re following up multiple times, and it’s hard to record/find the answers within your Gmail later.

With Leaps, that’s not the case anymore. I just have to send the questionnaire to the SME, and I can access everything in one place. The automated reminders are my favorite part because I hate going back to a thread and following up X times to get a response. SMEs and marketers are busy, so this is an excellent use case for automation.

The automated brief is excellent! You’re wonderfully pushing the case for original research. Instead of spending time transcribing the interview, parsing that data, and building the brief, I get the starter brief directly, which is built from the insights. I can then take that and build on it.

“I really like how little Leaps requires from the SME. No sign-up, no accounts. They just receive an email, click a link and answer questions.

And because SME’s aren’t required to register, it can be used for (consenting) external SME’s too, which I think is super cool. But the true benefit is how it removes all those manual emails that I forget and then send out too late which disrupts the creation flow.”

I like the fact that you can get as specific as you want with questions.

Leaps will suggest a few based on the information you provide, but you can get as nitty-gritty as you’d like when positioning questions for SMEs. I also appreciate the automatic reminders — because, hey, we’re all busy!

The brief I received afterwards was great for handing off to a freelancer and letting them run with it — and customizable, so if there’s anything that didn’t come out of the SME answers that I’d like to add for context, I can always do that.”
