The excitonic insulator represents a fascinating electronic phase in which bound electron-hole pairs condense into a macroscopic quantum state. The layered compound Ta2Pd3Te5 has recently emerged as a compelling platform for exploring this elusive phase. A hallmark of such condensate is the presence of collective excitations analogous to the Higgs (amplitude) and Goldstone (phase) modes in superconductors. In this work, we present the experimental fingerprint of a coherent amplitude response in the excitonic insulator phase of Ta2Pd3Te5. Through non-degenerate pump-probe spectroscopy, we identify three low frequency A1g phonons that show strong coupling to the excitonic condensate. We characterise these modes as a function of temperature and excitation fluence to reveal their link to the emergence and dynamics of the excitonic condensate.
