PALO ALTO, Calif., Aug. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- AKOOL, the leading AI video generation suite, today announced it has been named the #1 fastest-growing private company in America on Inc. Magazine's 2025 Inc. 5000 list. The ranking reflects AKOOL's exceptional growth trajectory since its founding and highlights its leading position in AI video technology.

The Inc. 5000 is the definitive ranking of the nation's most successful private companies, based on percentage revenue growth over a four-year period. Companies recognized have demonstrated innovation, resilience, and the ability to scale rapidly in competitive markets.

Since launch, AKOOL has transformed the content creation lifecycle — on-demand, live, and beyond — with an end-to-end AI video platform that combines hyper-realistic avatars, real-time lip-sync translation in 150+ languages, image-to-video, and on-device real time AI processing. The result: studio-quality video at scale, delivered instantly and privately, integrated seamlessly into creative and productivity tools like Adobe Premiere, Canva, Figma, Slack, Google Workspace, and HubSpot.

"Achieving the #1 rank on the Inc. 5000 is a testament to our team's dedication to pushing the boundaries of what's possible in AI video," said Jiajun (Jeff) Lu, CEO & Founder of AKOOL. "From our earliest prototype to today's enterprise-grade platform, AKOOL's ascent has been driven by fast pace innovation, studio-quality results at scale, a privacy-first foundation, and an unwavering focus on customer success."

AKOOL's #1 ranking on the Inc. 5000 follows a year of transformative milestones in 2025:
