Irvine, Calif. – August 21, 2025 – InnoCaption, an FCC-certified provider of real-time captioning of phone calls for the deaf and hard-of-hearing community, today announced that the company placed 2,474 on the annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The list provides a data-driven snapshot of the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment – its independent, entrepreneurial businesses.
“InnoCaption has continued to release exciting new features to our app that take into account the real-world needs and desires of the hearing loss community that we serve. We’re proud that this innovation has led to once again ranking on Inc.’s list, and look forward to continuing to launch meaningful developments over the coming months,” said Paul Lee, Chief Operating Officer, InnoCaption.
Recent developments that have helped InnoCaption stay at the forefront of call captioning technology include Caption Alert, a service that signals with flashing and vibration when an on-hold call resumes; hands-free calling through Siri; diagnostics features that help automate basic troubleshooting and connectivity issues; and, InnoCaption Bot a web feature that displays captions on a separate screen during online video conference calls, compatible across platforms including Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and Webex.
The Company’s leading-edge technology and stellar customer service have contributed to InnoCaption’s fast-growing user base, one that Lee does not expect to slow down any time soon. “Our team brings their best to work every day to create an empowering solution that helps break down telecommunication barriers in our customers’ daily lives. This is undoubtedly a driving force behind our continued growth,” he said. “But we’re not stopping here. With our new IP Relay certification from the FCC, we will be expanding our app’s text-to-speech functionality for people with speech disabilities and expect even more growth as we serve a wider range of user accessibility needs.
According to Inc., this year’s honorees have demonstrated exceptional growth while navigating economic uncertainty, inflationary pressure, and a fluctuating labor market. Among the top 500 companies on the list, the median three-year revenue growth rate reached 1,552 percent, and those companies have collectively added more than 48,678 jobs to the U.S. economy over the past three years.
