Why we built this
It started with a phone call.
In 2024, Bill Lloyd’s step-father passed away. What followed wasn’t just grief. It was an avalanche of logistics: legal documents, financial accounts, insurance claims, property decisions, benefit deadlines. Bill found himself helping his mother sort through all of it, with no guide and no plan.
His background in AI and enterprise consulting gave him tools most people don’t have. He built systems to manage the process. And then he realized: most people facing these moments have nothing. They’re googling at 2am, missing deadlines they didn’t know existed, and carrying the weight of not knowing what to do next.
He called Scott Leandro, his longtime colleague from their years in tech and consulting. Scott came from a family that had operated long-term care facilities his entire life. He’d seen the same problem from the other side: families arriving overwhelmed, with no roadmap, making decisions under pressure that they didn’t fully understand.
The conversation was short. The need was obvious. Gaite was born.
After years of helping enterprise clients navigate the fast-changing world of technology, Bill and Scott decided it was time to focus their talents on the rest of us. On the people navigating a new baby, an aging parent, a job loss, a serious diagnosis. On the moments where having a clear plan changes everything.
Leadership
The people behind Gaite.

Bill Lloyd
Founder / CEO
Bill spent over two decades helping enterprise clients bring data to life as a technology consultant. When his step-father passed away, he found himself helping his mother navigate the overwhelming details that follow a loss. His experience with AI helped him build tools to manage the process, and he realized how many people face these moments with no plan at all.

Scott Leandro
Founder / Chief Product Officer
Scott is Bill's longtime colleague from their years in tech and consulting. He comes from a family that has operated long-term care facilities his entire life, so he saw the need from a different angle: the families trying to navigate complex, life-changing situations with no roadmap. When Bill called with the idea, the answer was immediate.
