LeapAP alternative

A LeapAP alternative you can start today. With the price on the page.

LeapAP and inletAP are both accounts payable built for property managers. LeapAP starts with a demo and a setup fee. inletAP publishes its prices, has a free plan you can start today, and checks every bill against what that vendor billed for that property before.

The free plan processes 25 invoices a month with unlimited users, takes no credit card and does not expire. You get your own intake address at the end of setup.

Same buyer, two different purchases

LeapAP describes itself as accounts payable automation for property and community management companies, including condo, HOA, commercial and residential (leapap.com, read on October 6, 2026).

What LeapAP adds

Optional vendor payments, retrieval from utility portals, and connectors it lists for Yardi, Rent Manager, Buildium and Condo Manager (leapap.com, read on October 6, 2026).

What inletAP adds

A published price and a free plan, no setup fee, a check on every bill against that vendor's history at that property, and 2-way PO matching on every plan.

Capabilities

What inletAP does

Start in the same session

Signing up creates your workspace and an intake address at once. Forward a real vendor invoice and see it extracted, coded and routed.

A second look at every bill

Each bill is compared against what that vendor billed for that property before, against your approval thresholds, and against the invoices you already hold from them.

Property, unit and entity coding

Property, unit, ownership entity and GL account are fields on the document. A rule sets the GL account; the rest is read off the invoice or corrected on review.

One invoice, several properties

Split by amount, percent, even share, unit count or square footage, on every plan. Several QuickBooks companies get one bill each.

Approvals by amount and property

Amount tiers and per-property approvers, with SLA timers. An invoice whose vendor, number, date or total scores below 70% stops in a review queue first.

2-way PO matching with balance tracking

inletAP matches supplier invoices to purchase orders. It reads the PO number from the invoice, finds the purchase order (imported from a spreadsheet, entered by hand, or read from QuickBooks Online or Xero), checks the vendor and the amount against what is left on it, and sends a mismatch to review.

How the second look decides

The comparison is against your own numbers, not a generic rule: what that vendor billed for that property before — never that vendor averaged across the portfolio — and the approval ladder you already wrote. Nothing has to be configured for it to work: the defaults are published on the page, and so is the single number you may change.

Why this one

Switching from LeapAP, or choosing between them

  • Your books are in QuickBooks Online or Xero: approved bills post there directly, one bill per ledger.
  • You want to see the price and start without a demo or a setup fee: the free plan takes 25 invoices a month, every month.
  • You want each bill checked against that vendor's history at that property: that runs on every bill from the first invoice.
  • You pay vendors today from your bank, QuickBooks Online or Xero: keep doing that, with approved, coded bills ready to pay. Vendor payments inside inletAP are on our roadmap.
  • Utility bills: send the utility's e-bill emails to your intake address and they arrive like any other invoice. Fetching them from utility websites is at the top of our roadmap.
  • Your bills go into Yardi, Rent Manager, Buildium or Condo Manager: connectors to property management systems are on our roadmap, and the first customers on each system decide which we build first. Today, approved bills export as a CSV whose columns you define, for a system that imports bills from a file.

Pricing

Free for 25 invoices a month, every month — then $39

The price is on the site and you can read it without talking to anyone: Free $0, Starter $39, Growth $99, Pro $249 a month. Every plan carries unlimited users, so the people who approve invoices are never a line item — you pay per document, not per seat. The free plan is 25 processed invoices every month, forever, with no card and no expiry date.

Prices are in US dollars and exclude sales tax, which is added where it applies.

Paid plans renew automatically at the price shown — every month, or every 12 months on annual billing — until you cancel. Cancel any time in billing settings: the next renewal stops and you keep the period you have already paid for.

LeapAP alternative — common questions

How is inletAP different from LeapAP?
Both are accounts payable software built for property managers. The differences are in how you buy and where the bill goes. LeapAP starts with a demo, prices by invoice volume with a setup fee, can pay your vendors, and lists connectors to property management systems such as Yardi Voyager, Rent Manager, Buildium and Condo Manager (leapap.com, read on October 6, 2026). inletAP publishes its prices, has a free plan you can start without a call, does not pay vendors, and posts approved bills to QuickBooks Online or Xero, or exports a CSV.
Does LeapAP publish its price?
It publishes its pricing model but not figures: a per-invoice processing fee, optional payment fees and one-time setup fees, based on invoice volume, portfolio size and scope of services. Its pricing page redirects to a demo request (leapap.com, read on October 6, 2026). inletAP's prices are on the site: Free for 25 documents a month, Starter $39, Growth $99 and Pro $249 a month, with unlimited users and no setup fee.
Can inletAP handle our utility bills?
Yes. Today, by email: most utilities can send each bill as an email or e-bill, so point that delivery, or a forwarding rule, at your inletAP intake address and every utility bill arrives, is read, coded to its property and checked against that account's history like any other invoice. Signing in to utility websites to fetch bills for you is at the top of our roadmap. LeapAP says it already logs into more than 700 utility portals (leapap.com, read on October 6, 2026).
Does inletAP match invoices to purchase orders?
Yes. inletAP matches supplier invoices to purchase orders. It reads the PO number from the invoice, finds the purchase order (imported from a spreadsheet, entered by hand, or read from QuickBooks Online or Xero), checks the vendor and the amount against what is left on it, and sends a mismatch to review. It is 2-way PO matching with balance tracking, on every plan including Free, and it does not check goods or work received.
Is inletAP Canadian too?
Yes. inletAP is built in Toronto, and LeapAP's terms name a company incorporated in Canada. inletAP prices in US dollars and posts to QuickBooks Online and Xero in both countries.
