Inspiren Secures $100 Million in Series B Funding

Inspiren, a trailblazer in AI-driven solutions for senior living, has officially announced it has raised $100 million in Series B funding. This substantial investment was spearheaded by Insight Partners, a prominent global software investor, alongside notable participation from Avenir, Primary Venture Partners, Scale Venture Partners, Story Ventures, Third Prime, and Studio VC. This funding round brings Inspiren’s total financial backing to an impressive $155 million, underscoring the rapid growth and significant demand for integrated solutions in the senior care sector.

The landscape of senior living is evolving at an unprecedented pace. Increasing acuity levels among residents, coupled with mounting staffing challenges and rising expectations from both residents and their families, require operators to adapt swiftly. In response, Inspiren is developing an integrated ecosystem designed to meet these pressing demands comprehensively.

Unlike conventional point solutions, Inspiren’s approach unifies critical functions into a single, AI-powered platform. Earlier this year, the company made headlines by launching the industry’s first complete senior living ecosystem, which seamlessly combines aspects of resident safety, care planning, staffing, and emergency response into one cohesive solution.

As part of its continuous effort to innovate, Inspiren has recently enhanced its flagship web-based platform, Inspiren HQ. This update includes the introduction of Inspiren Intelligence, a robust analytics engine that provides real-time, comprehensive visibility into clinical and operational metrics. This development enables community leaders to gain actionable insights across various functionalities, including resident safety and staffing management.

Michael Wang, the Founder and Chief Clinical Officer of Inspiren, expressed the necessity of such advancements: "Senior living faces unprecedented challenges. Yet, the industry has lacked a fully integrated, enterprise-ready solution. Inspiren was created to address these challenges and more, combining technology with compassionate care. This investment allows us to continue enhancing our ecosystem and exceed expectations in senior living."

The funding will enable Inspiren to accelerate its mission to deliver advanced AI capabilities, broaden its reach within communities across the nation, and elevate standards for clinical outcomes, operational efficiency, and trust among residents and their families.

Inspiren has already demonstrated immediate, tangible impacts in partner communities, including:

• - Ascent Living Communities: Within hours of implementing Inspiren, the platform identified and confirmed a fall that a resident had initially denied, facilitating timely medical care and resulting in a stroke diagnosis.
• - Heritage Communities: Implementations have yielded a remarkable 86% reduction in injury-related falls within bedrooms across their communities.
• - Arrow Senior Living: With the system deployed in 27 locations across six states, Inspiren has positively influenced thousands of residents and staff members. Both Arrow and Inspiren received the 2024 McKnight's Technology Award and are finalists for the 2025 edition.

Jeff Horing, a Co-Founder and Managing Director at Insight Partners and a recent member of Inspiren's Board of Directors, commented on the importance of their integrated system: "By combining resident safety, clinical insights, and staff efficiency into one intelligent system, Inspiren is driving both immediate impact and long-term value for senior living. We are proud to support their vision as they scale to meet rising demand and help reshape how technology enhances the quality of life in senior care."

In the past year, Inspiren has more than doubled its customer base, promoted talent from within, and attracted seasoned executives from leading organizations, including:

• - Mike Hsu, Chief Operating Officer (formerly of Anduril, Peloton)
• - Dominique Simoneau-Ritchie, Chief Technology Officer (formerly of Affinity, Wealthsimple, Shopify)
• - Lynne Hamilton, Chief People Officer (formerly of Black Crow AI, Intent)
• - Brian Gwiazdowski, Head of Finance (formerly of Primary Venture Partners, Vista Equity Partners)
• - Skye Peckenpaugh, Head of Marketing (formerly of Flock Safety, VTS)

With a fresh influx of capital, a restructured leadership team, and accelerating momentum in the senior living sector, Inspiren is poised for rapid growth. The company aims to enhance innovation and deliver immeasurable value to residents, their families, and care operators nationwide.
