## **Head of Sales**

[**Senso.ai**](http://Senso.ai)** (YC W24) · New York, NY / San Francisco, CA / Toronto, ON (Hybrid)**

### **The Mission: Infrastructure for the Agentic Web**

The internet was built for humans. AI agents require **structure, context, and continuous verification** to operate safely at scale.

Senso is the infrastructure for the **Agentic Web**. We turn fragmented enterprise data locked in outdated Systems of Record into **auditable, continuously verified ground-truth context** optimized for agents. This enables AI agents to answer, recommend, transact, and support with confidence.

As the market shifts from **SEO → GEO → Agentic Commerce**, Senso is the **context and verification layer** that makes AI commerce and post-transaction workflows usable in the real world.
