EchoTwin AI is a Physical AI–powered Cognitive City platform transforming how cities operate. By turning existing municipal fleets into mobile sensing platforms, we give agencies real-time visibility into road conditions, critical assets, and curbside/parking environments.

It creates work orders, evidence trails, and prioritized operator queues, then closes the loop with verification by re-checking locations to confirm fixes and quantify outcomes. The result is measurable: safer streets, faster repairs, lower operational costs, and a unified intelligence layer that moves cities from reactive, manual inspections to self-healing, auditable, and scalable municipal service delivery—systems that can truly see, think, and act. | $8M / Seed / Sep 01, 2025 | |
