This is the Miami-based dental staffing marketplace’s first appearance on the prestigious list.
MIAMI, Aug. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Inc. recently revealed that GoTu Technology, Inc., ranked 42 on the 2024 Inc. 5000, its annual list of the fastest-growing private companies in America. This is the Miami-based dental staffing marketplace’s first appearance on the prestigious list.
The annual ranking provides a data-driven look at the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent, entrepreneurial businesses. Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Under Armour, Timberland, Oracle, Patagonia, and many other household-name brands gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.
“Being named on the Inc. 5000 list is a powerful validation of our mission to empower the dental community,” said Cary Gahm, co-founder and co-CEO of GoTu. “This achievement belongs to our incredible team, who are redefining what’s possible in our industry.”
The Inc. 5000 class of 2024 represents companies that have driven rapid revenue growth while navigating inflationary pressure, the rising costs of capital, and seemingly intractable hiring challenges. Among this year’s top 500 companies, the average median three-year revenue growth rate is 1,637 percent. In all, this year’s Inc. 5000 companies have added 874,458 jobs to the economy over the past three years.
“Being in the top 1% is proof of the impact we’re making,” said GoTu co-founder and co-CEO Edward Thomas. “At GoTu, we’re thriving by focusing on delivering unmatched value and flexibility to our users. I’m incredibly proud of our team and community that are changing the way the world works.”

All 5000 companies are featured on Inc.com starting Tuesday, August 13, and the top 500 appear in the new issue of Inc. magazine, available on newsstands beginning Tuesday, August 20.
“One of the greatest joys of my job is going through the Inc. 5000 list,” says Mike Hofman, who recently joined Inc. as editor-in-chief. “To see all of the intriguing and surprising ways that companies are transforming sectors, from health care and AI to apparel and pet food, is fascinating for me as a journalist and storyteller. Congratulations to this year’s honorees, as well, for growing their businesses fast despite the economic disruption we all faced over the past three years, from supply chain woes to inflation to changes in the workforce.”

Its user-friendly platform connects over 25,000 dental offices with over 45,000 verified dental professionals and has filled more than 125,000 shifts across more than 30 states.

Inc. 5000 Methodology
Companies on the 2024 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2020 to 2023. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2020. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2023. (Since then, some on the list may have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2020 is $100,000; the minimum for 2023 is $2 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons. Growth rates used to determine company rankings were calculated to four decimal places.
