Inspiren raises $70M Series C at $500M+ valuation for senior living AI

Ambient sensors that flag a resident's stumble before it becomes a fall are reshaping what senior care teams can promise families.

• Inspiren raised $70 million in Series C funding led by NewView Capital, valuing the senior living AI company at more than $500 million and lifting its total funding to $225 million.
• Founded in 2016 by Michael Wang, a former Green Beret turned geriatric and cardiothoracic nurse, Inspiren builds AUGi, a wall-mounted sensor that uses on-device computer vision to spot falls before they happen.
• The round caps a rapid financing run: a $35M Series A in March 2025 and a $100M Series B that September, followed by this $70M Series C just a year later.
• Clients report measurable results: Clearwater Living saw a 63% drop in injury-causing falls and 73% fewer post-fall ER visits, while Solera Senior Living logged a 48% fall reduction over a 10-month study.
• Inspiren processes video and sensor data on-device rather than streaming it to the cloud, avoiding the lag and privacy tradeoffs of traditional camera-based monitoring systems.
• The company plans to use the capital to expand its go-to-market team, broaden its hardware ecosystem, and deepen the AI models that detect and predict resident risk.
• As the 85-and-older population grows faster than the caregiving workforce, ambient AI is becoming core infrastructure for operators trying to catch emergencies before they escalate rather than after.
