Sensei
Sensei is an autonomous retail technology company that uses computer vision and artificial intelligence to enable checkout-free, "frictionless" shopping with no scanning and no queues, while giving retailers real-time inventory visibility and operational insights. It ships in four formats — Store (full-store), Pod (24/7 autonomous unit), Cabinet (plug-and-play), and Lane (human-assisted express checkout) — serving supermarkets, workplaces, mobility hubs, education, hospitality, leisure, and health/wellness venues. Founded in Portugal (HQ Castelo Branco, with Lisbon, São Paulo, and Milan offices), Sensei is a Techstars-backed company that works with retailers such as Continente, Conad, NOS, Muffato, and Galp and technical partners including Mastercard and HP. Sensei is a hardware and computer-vision provider and publishes no public API, SDK, or developer documentation; engagement is demo-based ("book a demo") rather than developer self-serve.
Index entry only — little beyond a description and a link, and nothing machine-readable enough for an agent to act on without a human reading the site first.
API Evangelist profiles Sensei the way a machine reads it — 1 machine-readable artifact, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Sensei scores 11.4/100 (minimal), with a separate agent-readiness read of 0/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile Sensei
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Sensei. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.
Security Posture 1
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.
