Eko, formerly known as Interlude, is a media and technology company that enables production and web distribution of interactive multimedia videos.

Technology

Eko software constructs audiovisual multimedia within which users have options of streaming choices from a traversable video tree. The availability of different video streams allows for a change in viewer perspective or for narrative-branching.

Eko was founded by Israeli rock musician Yoni Bloch. Eko is based in New York and Tel Aviv, and is backed by Sequoia Capital, Intel Capital, New Enterprise Associates, Marker LLC, Innovation Endeavors, Warner Music Group, Sony Pictures, Samsung, and Walmart.
