Bustle Digital Group announced on the 23rd of July 2019 that it had purchased Inverse. It later gave the outlet a new design called Inverse 2.0 on the 22nd of January 2020.
Inverse laid off six staff writers, about 15 percent of its workforce, on the 15th of August 2018. The cuts followed a drop in monthly unique visitors from 7.2 million in July 2017 to 5.7 million.
Inverse was originally headquartered in San Francisco, California, with its editorial staff based in Brooklyn, New York. In 2017 the company moved its headquarters to SoHo in Manhattan, New York City.
Nick Lucchesi is Inverse's executive editor.
In January 2026, Bustle Digital Group closed Inverse's gaming section and made layoffs that left the magazine with what was described as a skeleton crew Entertainment Team.
