Inspiren is a Brooklyn-based physical AI company founded in 2016 by former U.S. Army Special Forces Sergeant Michael Wang alongside co-founders Jeffrey Morelli, Vincent Cocito, and Paul Coyne. The company builds an integrated ecosystem of AI-powered hardware and software — including the AUGi ambient sensor, Sense fall-detection device, Help Button, Resident Pendant, and Staff Beacon — feeding real-time behavioral data into the Inspiren HQ platform. The platform enables proactive fall prevention, automated emergency call routing, staff efficiency workflows, and data-driven care planning for assisted living and memory care communities. Operators report a 68% reduction in falls and a 22% increase in occupancy following deployment. Inspiren now powers care at communities backed by more than 80% of the largest senior housing investors, including AEW and Sabra Healthcare REIT, and serves operators such as Arrow Senior Living, Ascent Living Communities, Heritage Communities, Thrive Senior Living, and Wellpointe. Having raised $225 million in total funding — including a $70 million Series C in September 2026 led by NewView Capital and Ten Coves Capital at a $550 million valuation — Inspiren is the most-funded and highest-valued technology company built specifically for senior living operators.
