Eikona, a generative AI startup focused on transforming how businesses communicate with their customers, has raised $5 million in its Seed funding round.
The round was led by StageOne Ventures, with additional support from Crescendo Venture Partners, Wix Ventures, Clarim Ventures, and several angel investors from both industry and academia.
Eikona was founded by Nir Weingarten and Omer Hacohen. The company uses a method called Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) to improve generative AI models.
This helps marketing content automatically adjust based on how customers actually behave. Eikona says this approach is very different from the traditional way marketing has been done for decades.
Eikona calls its technology an “adaptation layer” between marketers and their audiences. It changes images, videos, text snippets, and layouts based on how people interact, while still keeping the brand, product, and legal rules intact.
The company says that using this technology can lead to big improvements for customers—sometimes doubling or even tripling sales, customer retention, and click rates.
“Creating engaging content was always the holy grail for digital marketing, and GenAI provides the blueprint to achieve it,” said co-founder and CEO Nir Weingarten. “Closing the feedback loop of user engagement enables us to break free of prompting. As human prompters, we’re biased toward what we think people want, we’re limited by what we can describe, and we don’t scale.”
