The round was led by N47, with participation from Notable Capital, Hyperwise Ventures, and SentinelOne’s S Ventures.

The company plans to use the funds to accelerate development of its AI-native operating system.

Founded by Eilon Elhadad and Eylam Milner, Echo is an AI startup that delivers cloud security through CVE-free (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures–free) container images. Using purpose-built AI agents, the company autonomously creates container images from scratch and continuously maintains them as new vulnerabilities emerge.
