What the growth reflects
The Inc. 5000 ranks private U.S. companies on three-year revenue growth. The 2026 list measures growth from 2022 to 2025, against a different field of 5,000 companies than the 2025 list, which measured 2021 to 2024.

On a ranking built entirely on revenue growth, a company’s position is a downstream measure of its customers. Captello’s standing among software companies, up from No. 150 to No. 121 and forward again in Dallas-Fort Worth, reflects enterprise event teams adopting the platform, renewing on it, and moving more of their event programs onto it year over year.

That growth has come from continuous investment in the platform to serve those teams better, most recently the next generation of Captello released in 2026. The company measures its progress the same way its customers do, by the pipeline its events can prove.

Captello’s full 2026 standing:

  • U.S. software companies: No. 121
  • Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington metro: No. 57
  • Texas: No. 157
  • Inc. 5000 overall: No. 1,436

“Three consecutive years on the Inc. 5000 is a milestone we share with our customers and our team. Growth like this happens when event teams trust Captello with more of their programs each year, and when the people here keep building for them. We are proud of the recognition, and more focused on what it asks of us next: to keep proving that events can be measured in revenue, not just activity.”
Ryan Schefke, Chief Executive Officer, Captello

What is driving the growth
Captello is the only event-to-revenue intelligence platform, unifying lead capture, data enrichment, meeting management, activations, and revenue intelligence in one system. Across trade shows, conferences, and field programs, every interaction is captured, enriched, and attributed to revenue, then routed to the CRM as pipeline a marketing leader can defend.

That single system is what enterprise event programs have been buying:

  • Lead capture: Universal Lead Capture and Connexions, capturing every conversation online and offline.
  • Data enrichment: the Captello Proprietary 5-Layer Enrichment Engine, drawing on the Captello Enrichment Network of 125+ data providers for up to a 98% match rate.
  • Meeting management: pre-event, during, and post-event booking with on-floor management and meeting-to-pipeline attribution.
  • Activations and engagement: 60+ activations and games that turn booth traffic into qualified conversations.
  • Event revenue intelligence: Pre-Event Intelligence, Revelation™, and ROI attribution that connect spend to closed pipeline.

The platform carries 9,000+ CRM, marketing-automation, and system integrations, supports up to 75 languages, and is backed by SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and GDPR compliance with enterprise SSO. A profitable company trusted by the Fortune 500, Captello is a 3-time MUSE Award winner and Voted Buyer’s Choice.

“Growth like this follows a category shift. Event budgets face more scrutiny than they ever have, and the teams that keep those budgets are the ones who can attribute pipeline to the booth, the meeting, and the conversation. That is the entire reason Captello exists.”
Brad Froese, Vice President of Marketing, Captello

Captello continues to invest in the platform and to expand across enterprise event programs, with the same focus that has defined it from the start: turning event activity into measurable revenue for its customers.
