Leverate is a global technology provider that offers turnkey software solutions and services for forex brokers, CFD brokers, and proprietary trading firms. Founded in 2008 in Israel, the company started as a small algorithmic trading startup but quickly pivoted to providing price feeds, eventually building a comprehensive SaaS ecosystem. Today, Leverate’s flagship LXSuite bundles trading platforms, liquidity feeds, risk management, CRM, and white-label infrastructure into a single integrated platform. The company serves hundreds of brokerages worldwide and employs approximately 80 people across offices in Israel, Cyprus, Hong Kong, Ukraine, China, Poland, Bulgaria, Germany, Dubai, and Latin America. Leverate has notable history with Saxo Bank, which invested $12.5 million for a 25% stake in 2011, later repurchased in 2014. Recent partnerships with Level2 and Convrs in 2025-2026 added no-code algorithmic trading and real-time alerts. The company also provides regulatory consulting through its subsidiary Regyoul8 and has won multiple industry awards for its technology.
Detailed Review
History & Founding
Leverate was founded in 2008 by Doron Cohen, Itai Damti, Doron Somech, and Ran Strauss. The original vision was to create a fully automated trading algorithm, but the team pivoted after realizing the algorithm’s price feed (LXFeed) was more valuable as a standalone product for brokers. This shift marked Leverate’s entry into the Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) market. In 2011, the company sold a 25% stake to Saxo Bank for $12.5 million, using the capital to expand its workforce from 50 to 70 employees. Leverate opened offices in Hong Kong (2012) and Ukraine (2013) and later repurchased Saxo Bank’s stake in 2014. In 2017, it launched Cyprus-based regulatory consulting arm Regyoul8 and the next-generation trading platforms Edu8 and Activ8.
Product & Platform Ecosystem
Leverate’s flagship offering is the LXSuite, a modular bundle that includes LXFeed (low-latency price aggregation and liquidity feed), LXRisk (real-time risk management), LXCRM (customer relationship management), Sirix/Activ8 (social trading platform), LXLite (lightweight web-based interface), and LXAPI (custom integration API). The company also provides white-label brokerage services covering liquidity connections, trading platforms, CRM, and retention tools. In 2023, Leverate launched a mobile digital trading platform. In 2025-2026, the company partnered with Level2 (no-code automation) and Convrs (messaging) to embed algorithmic trading and real-time alerts directly into its platform.
Regulatory & Compliance Services
Through its subsidiary Regyoul8, Leverate offers regulatory consulting, licensing support, and compliance services for brokers operating in multiple jurisdictions.
Market Position
Leverate competes with other brokerage technology providers such as MetaQuotes, cTrader, and Spotware. Its differentiation lies in its comprehensive all-in-one platform approach and strong customer support with 24/7 dedicated account managers. The company has received multiple industry awards for its technology.
