Inspiren Raises $100M Series B to Lead Senior Living's AI-Driven Future

Investment accelerates Inspiren's vision to help operators meet rising care demands with an integrated, AI-powered ecosystem

NEW YORK, Sept. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Inspiren, a leader in AI-powered solutions redefining senior living, today announced it has raised $100 million in Series B funding. The financing was led by global software investor Insight Partners, with participation from Avenir, Primary Venture Partners, Scale Venture Partners, Story Ventures, Third Prime, and Studio VC. This brings Inspiren's total funding to $155 million.

The senior living landscape is changing. Rising acuity levels, escalating staffing challenges, and increasing expectations from residents and families are reshaping the industry. Operators must adapt quickly to meet these demands, and Inspiren is building the ecosystem to help them do it.

Unlike point solutions, Inspiren unifies resident safety, care planning, staffing, and emergency response into a single AI-powered platform. In March, the company launched the industry's first complete senior living ecosystem, bringing together these core functions in one seamless solution.

As part of its ongoing advancements, the company recently enhanced Inspiren HQ, the web-based platform that empowers community leadership to monitor the overall health of their communities. This included the launch of Inspiren Intelligence, an advanced analytics engine that delivers a comprehensive, real-time view of clinical and operational insights, providing actionable information across resident safety, care planning, and staffing. With its intuitive, user-friendly design, Inspiren Intelligence represents a significant step forward in using AI to drive meaningful outcomes in senior living.

"Senior living faces unprecedented challenges. Yet, the industry has lacked a fully integrated, enterprise-ready solution," said Michael Wang, Founder and Chief Clinical Officer of Inspiren. "Inspiren was created to address these challenges and more, combining technology with compassionate care. This investment lets us continue to enhance the ecosystem and ensure we're always exceeding what senior living expects. We're honored to have investors who believe in and support our vision."

The financing will accelerate Inspiren's ability to deliver expanded AI capabilities, bring its ecosystem to more communities nationwide, and raise the bar for clinical outcomes, staff efficiency, and resident and family trust.

Communities using Inspiren can see immediate, measurable impact, including:

• Ascent Living Communities: Within hours of go-live, Inspiren detected and confirmed a fall that a resident had denied, enabling timely medical attention and the diagnosis of a stroke.
• Heritage Communities: Inspiren-enabled communities achieved improvements in fall outcomes, including an 86% reduction in bedroom-related falls with injury.
• Arrow Senior Living: Installed in 27 communities across six states, positively impacting thousands of residents and staff. Arrow and Inspiren jointly received the 2024 McKnight's Technology Award and are 2025 finalists.

"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," said Jeff Horing, recent Inspiren Board of Directors appointee and Co-Founder and Managing Director at Insight Partners. "We are proud to support their vision as they scale to meet rising demand and help reshape how technology enhances quality of life in senior care."

Within the past year, Inspiren has more than doubled its customer base, promoted internal talent, and recruited seasoned leaders from some of the world's most innovative organizations, including:

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

With new capital, a strengthened leadership team, and growing momentum across senior living, Inspiren is positioned to scale rapidly, accelerate innovation, and deliver unmatched value to residents, families, and operators nationwide.
