August 15, 2023

Leading revenue intelligence platform named to the Inc. 5000 list for the second time

San Francisco, Calif. – Aug. 15, 2023 People.ai, the enterprise revenue intelligence leader, has been named to the Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies for the second consecutive year.

The Inc. 5000 award marks another milestone for People.ai in a year that has included multiple new product innovations for its customers including AI-powered account plans with Account GPT, more robust Engagement Dashboards providing complete visibility into account health and methodology adherence, and new visualizations and board design features to help sales leaders easily adhere to sales rituals and workflows. Also this year, Microsoft selected People.ai as an integration partner to deliver AI-driven insights into Microsoft Sales Copilot, making generative AI-driven insights available right inside the Microsoft productivity tools sellers are already using.  

“Since our founding almost eight years ago, we have been maniacally focused on creating a data foundation collected from sales teams' emails, calendars and calls. We believed that the AI of the future would rely on this data to improve sales productivity and ultimately win more revenue for large enterprises” said Oleg Rogynskyy, founder and CEO at People.ai. “Given the recent advances in AI innovation, our thesis has been proven right and we're now perfectly positioned to lead the GenAI revolution in go-to-market productivity, catalyzed by the improvements in Large Language Models. We’re thrilled to be recognized by Inc. as a frontrunner in this fast growing space.” 

Innovation and growth are the heart of any company named to the Inc. 5000 list. A complete list of results, including company profiles and an interactive database sorted by industry, region and other criteria, can be found at www.inc.com/inc5000. The top 500 companies are featured in the September issue of Inc. magazine, available on newsstands beginning Tuesday, August 23.

“Running a business has only gotten harder since the end of the pandemic,” says Inc. editor in chief Scott Omelianuk. “To make the Inc. 5000 with the fast growth that itrequires is truly an accomplishment. Inc. is thrilled to honor the companies that are building our future.”

Methodology

Companies on the 2023 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2019 to 2022. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2019. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent — not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies — as of December 31, 2022. (Since then, some on the list may have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2019 is $100,000; the minimum for 2022 is $2 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons. Growth rates used to determine company rankings were calculated to four decimal places.
