NEW YORK, NY, August 12, 2025 — Accrete, the AI company whose Knowledge Engine platform enables autonomous decisions used by governments and corporations, has earned its place on the Inc. 5000 list of America’s fastest-growing private companies. The ranking reflects three-year revenue growth fueled by rising demand for AI agents that can be trusted to make complex decisions in mission-critical environments.
The Inc. 5000 list honors privately-held, U.S.-based companies that achieve outsized percentage revenue growth over a three-year period. Qualifying companies must meet revenue thresholds, remain independent, and pass editorial review. Past honorees include Microsoft, Intuit, and Under Armour, making the list a bellwether for emerging market leaders.
“Being recognized by Inc. is emblematic of the fact that Knowledge Engines are the missing link to harnessing the power of artificial superintelligence via agents in organizational contexts,” said Prashant Bhuyan, Founder, CEO, and Chairman of Accrete, Inc. “LLMs + RAG alone can’t scale in an organizational context because they are fundamentally static systems that can’t autonomously discover relationships in siloed data. In order to transcend search, LLMs need to produce new knowledge and insight that can’t be searched–that doesn’t explicitly exist in the training text.”
Bhuyan went on to say, “Knowledge Engines transform LLMs into AI agents that can expertly reason across siloed information, identify hidden relationships in the data too complex for humans to identify, and be trusted to make complex decisions at a speed, scale, and accuracy humans can’t achieve.”
Company momentum over the past three years includes triple-digit revenue growth driven by significant government contracts and Fortune 500 deals; accelerating platform adoption across defense, consumer goods, IT operations, and media; and strategic partnerships that expand market reach and deliver a platform to configure and deploy Knowledge Engines and Expert AI Agents at scale.
Current partners include Snowflake, Carahsoft, Publicis Groupe, and New Era Technologies. Accrete was also recognized in Gartner’s 2025 report, “Emerging Tech: Techscape for Startups in Agentic AI,” for its Knowledge Engine architecture, security-first design, and deep organizational context that power autonomous agent ecosystems. In parallel, the company launched the “Slingshot” Knowledge Engine pilot program that helps organizations realize step-function gains in efficiency, growth, and decision automation.
Why it matters:
Information complexity continues to outpace human reasoning capacity, exposing organizations to critical vulnerabilities. Accrete’s Knowledge Engine semantically unifies siloed data with the tacit domain expertise of an organization’s best people to create a persistent ground truth, enabling AI Agents to reason, decide, and act with superhuman speed and scale. Customers report analyst workloads cut by up to 80% and mission timelines reduced by half.
“Making the Inc. 5000 is just the beginning,” Bhuyan added. “We’re scaling military-grade AI that organizations can trust with high-stakes information and complex decisions, from thwarting foreign influence in the supply chain, to combatting information warfare in social media, to averting multimillion-dollar IT outages. Accrete’s next chapter is about capturing and scaling intuitive human knowledge, expertise, and judgment through the deployment of superintelligent agents to drive autonomous enterprises.”
