Compose.ly Named on the 2025 Inc. 5000 List of America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies

With a Three-Year Revenue Growth Rate Nearing 100 Percent, This Marks Compose.ly’s Third Time on the List

SEATTLE, Wash - August 12, 2025 – Inc., the premier media brand for entrepreneurs and business leaders has named Compose.ly No. 3,928 on the annual Inc. 5000 list, its annual list recognizing the fastest growing private companies in America.

The Inc. 5,000 offers a data-driven snapshot of the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent, entrepreneurial businesses. Past honorees include companies such as Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Under Armour, Timberland, Oracle, and Patagonia. 

“I'm incredibly proud of our talented team for their adaptability during the AI search evolution and their commitment to going above and beyond for our customers. They consistently deliver exceptional content and high-performing SEO strategies, which is genuinely inspiring," said Mike Leonhard, CEO and Co-Founder of Compose.ly. “To our customers: Thank you for your continued trust in us during this dynamic and exciting time for SEO content. We look forward to many more years of successful partnerships."

This year’s Inc. 5000 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.

“Making the Inc. 5000 is always a remarkable achievement, but earning a spot this year speaks volumes about a company’s tenacity and clarity of vision,” says Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc. “These businesses have thrived amid rising costs, shifting global dynamics, and constant change. They didn’t just weather the storm—they grew through it, and their stories are a powerful reminder that the entrepreneurial spirit is the engine of the U.S. economy.”

Inc. will celebrate the honorees at the 2025 Inc. 5000 Conference & Gala, taking place October 22–24 in Phoenix, and the top 500 will be listed in the Fall issue of Inc. magazine.
