The funding will be used to support the expansion of Echovane’s AI agent infrastructure, multimodal research capabilities and global participant network.

Echovane was founded by Smriti Gupta, Vipul Nair and Himadri Roy, expanding on the original idea of an AI moderator for consumer interviews into an end-to-end tool to support market research.

Vipul Nair, co-founder and chief technology officer at Echovane, said: “This funding allows us to deepen the agent infrastructure behind Echovane, expand our multimodal capabilities and strengthen the global participant network required to deliver increasingly complex studies with consistency.”
