Our Story

From our earlier work in developing enterprise communication systems in partnership with the NHS. We’ve seen the value of patient engagement platforms for General Practice.
Instead of building a generalist patient engagement platform we wanted to be more targeted in our design that meets specific aims of Primary Care Networks, Neighbourhood Teams, Integrated Care Boards, Research units and NHS commissioned private providers. These are:

  • Minimising Health Inequalities and targeting higher risk groups for prioritisation.
  • Automating outreach while aligning clinical capacity.
  • Improving communication cost transparency, while enabling revenue opportunities for users.

Our founders, Ludo, Jak and Jirka are passionate on enabling organisations to connect with people in ways that feel personal and meaningful while removing organisational administrative burdens and improve value for money. We’ve experienced the pitfalls of complexity first hand and share a common goal to create something that’s easy to use.

At ECHO, we bring together automation, cultural relevance and actionable insights to help teams communicate with confidence.
