For the 2026 list, Inspire ranked 3,416 overall and 288th within the financial services industry. The firm reported a 30% three-year revenue growth rate between 2022 and 2025, a performance metric that requires sustained execution to remain eligible under Inc.’s criteria, which excludes subsidiaries and requires firms to remain privately held.

CEO Robert Netzly attributed the milestone to the firm's specific market focus and client retention. The company integrates biblically responsible investing through its proprietary Inspire Impact Score, a methodology that combines negative screening with positive impact factors. Beyond its advisory services, Inspire operates a philanthropic arm, the Give50 Program, which directs at least half of its net corporate profits toward global ministry projects.
