Zepo Intelligence

Zepo Intelligence builds an agentic platform aimed at the human layer of security risk, simulating AI-driven social engineering attacks such as deepfake video, cloned voice calls, and manipulated phishing messages against an organization’s own employees to identify who and what is vulnerable, then feeding real-time interventions back into the workflow. The pitch is that traditional security-awareness training, built around static phishing emails, doesn’t prepare employees for attacks that now use generative AI to convincingly impersonate executives or colleagues in voice and video.

Founded in 2021 by Antonio Muñoz and Enrique Holgado, Zepo Intelligence is based in Madrid, Spain, with distributed teams across New York, Tel Aviv, and Mexico City. In December 2025 the company closed a $15 million (EUR 12.8 million) seed round backed by Kibo Ventures, eCAPITAL, and TIN Capital, and reports 5x year-over-year revenue growth alongside recognition from Google as one of 15 most innovative cybersecurity and AI startups globally.

The category Zepo addresses, AI-generated social engineering, is a genuinely emerging and underserved threat: deepfake CEO-fraud and voice-cloning incidents have moved from theoretical to documented in the past two years, and few vendors combine active simulation of these specific attack types with real-time detection in one platform. As an early-stage, seed-funded company, its technical claims and growth figures are largely self-reported and have not yet been validated by named enterprise case studies or third-party evaluation.
