Monogoto is an Israeli startup which offers what it describes as “the secure, global cloud-based cellular network.” Mongoto provides global, internet of things (IoT) and machine-to-machine (M2M) connectivity using powerful APIs that “enable enterprises and developers to design, build, manage, control and scale their IoT applications quickly and securely.”
Monogoto raised $27 million in a Series A funding round led by Toyota Ventures, with participation from Samsung Next, The ACTIVE Fund, Assembly Ventures, Magenta Venture Partners, and J-Ventures.
M2M connectivity refers to the communication between two or more machines without human intervention. These machines can be anything from industrial equipment to consumer devices.
In essence, M2M connectivity is driving a revolution in automation, efficiency, and data-driven decision-making across various industries. As the number of connected devices continues to grow, the potential applications of M2M technology are expanding rapidly.
Founded in 2018 by CEO Itamar Kunik, Monogoto is a cloud-based cellular network. The company explains that its API-driven Infrastructure-as-a-Service was designed from the ground up with simplicity in mind to enable cellular connectivity with existing enterprise IT infrastructure. With hundreds of ready-to-use APIs, Monogoto offers cellular connectivity with edge to the cloud security for IoT, Private LTE, and 5G use cases. Its services include full audit for all network events with anomaly detection and alerts automation. Monogoto’s enterprise-friendly solution enables customers to consume advanced cellular VAS with zero CAPEX and an “as-a-Service” business model.
By consolidating connectivity on a single platform, Monogoto offers resilient, API-driven, automated solutions that ensure high-quality service across public, private, and satellite networks. Monogoto lowers the barriers to device innovation with rich functionality, offering secure, accessible, and context-aware connectivity for sensors and devices. This enables customers to streamline operations and unlock the full potential of their physical products through software-defined connectivity.
“Connectivity has evolved from simple human networks to advanced, software-defined systems, but it still remains a complex, context-dependent challenge. Devices like drones and electric cars have different connectivity needs depending on their state, requiring agile, scalable solutions. Legacy tools cannot simply be duplicated for the new era,” said Itamar Kunik, Co-Founder and CEO of Monogoto. “We’ve built a game-changing, self-service cloud infrastructure that simplifies connectivity and drives innovation. Just as AWS transformed the cloud and Twilio scaled communications at scale, Monogoto is redefining connectivity.”
