“Jeenie CEO and Cofounder, Kirsten Brecht Baker, had this to say about Jeenie’s selection, “We are honored to have earned the rank of No. 271 on the 2025 Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in America. These are exciting times in the world and at Jeenie, as we relentlessly push beyond traditional language service models and invest further into innovation in our industry. We’re not just marketplace disruptors—we’re redefining how language intersects with social justice, health equity, and technology. With humans still at the core and responsible AI on the horizon, this is only the beginning of what’s to come.”
“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.”
