The People Behind Hyperleap AI
Our team combines technical expertise with business acumen to revolutionize AI implementation.
Leadership Team
Hyperleap AI was founded by visionary leaders who combine deep technical expertise with a profound understanding of business needs.
Gopi Krishna Lakkepuram
Founder & Chief Executive Officer
Gopi leads Hyperleap AI with a vision to transform how businesses implement AI. Before founding Hyperleap AI, Gopi built and scaled systems serving billions of users at Microsoft Headquarters, where he worked on Office 365 and Outlook.com. His experience spans enterprise software, cloud infrastructure, and AI implementation.
As a serial entrepreneur, Gopi brings valuable insights from multiple startup experiences to Hyperleap AI. He holds an MBA from the prestigious Indian School of Business (ISB) and combines technical depth with business acumen.
Gopi's journey to founding Hyperleap AI began when he identified a critical disconnect: despite massive investments in AI, most organizations struggled to implement solutions due to technical bottlenecks. He set out to create a platform that would put AI capabilities directly in business users' hands while providing developers with standardized tools for product integration.

Our team combines experience from Microsoft, Freshworks, and HighRadius with a passion for business-user empowerment, creating the first platform that truly democratizes AI implementation.
We understand the frustration business users experience when they identify perfect AI use cases but face months-long waits for technical implementation. We've also seen how developers struggle to integrate AI capabilities into products efficiently without standardized tools.
Hyperleap AI was born from these insights—a comprehensive platform that empowers both business users and developers to create, deploy, and integrate production-ready AI solutions without traditional barriers.
Today, our team is focused on building the definitive Business AI Platform with dual-path empowerment: no-code interfaces for business users and comprehensive Developer APIs for product integration, plus MCP support for standardized connections.
