Sprout Social, Inc.

A maker of social media management software, Sprout Social helps businesses and agencies plan, schedule, and reply to posts across networks like Facebook, Instagram, X, LinkedIn, and TikTok from one dashboard. Founded in 2010 in a windowless Chicago office by Justyn Howard and three co-founders, the company picked its name to capture the idea of helping brands grow their online presence. Its leafy logo is a nod to that "sprout" image of nurturing social connections.
