'''Cxense''' (pronounced [seeŸ·sense]){{citation needed|date=August 2012}} is an IT company that provides online advertising, web analytics, and search on a subscription basis. It is best known for being a reseller of advertising platforms.
 
The product Cxense made was a tool that was supposed to automatically create an interest profile for users browsing web sites, and use that profile to serve personalized ads and content.
==History==
Cxense was founded in 2010 by a team of people led by [[John Markus Lervik]] who have worked in the internet technology and media industry since the late 1990s. The main purpose was to develop technology that can understand the full [[Context-aware services|context]] of any online and mobile activity, and then use this capability to deliver context-aware applications that improve the user experience and efficiency of online web sites.

The Cxense products are delivered in a [[software as a service]] (SaaS) model, and are based on the concept of context computing and context-aware applications.
 
Context computing is used as the foundation improve the relevance of applications such as [[online advertising]], online [[recommendations]], [[User profile|user profiling]], web content [[personalization]], and web site search. From an algorithmic perspective, [[machine learning]] and [[System dynamics|feedback loops]], combined with leveraging [[network effects]], are used to compute the complete context of the end user.
 
As of June 2011, Cxense has three white-label products available commercially:
 
# An online advertising platform that enables companies to set up their own [[online advertising]] service or [[advertising network]]. The product works as an integrated, white-label ad platform that enables companies to service their own advertising system.
# A hosted site search [[solution]] that use [[social graph]]s, activity history, and other context to produce relevant results.
# A tool for analyzing web site content and usage, and how the two relate to each other. The resulting analytics is provided for web site editors and business owners to analyze how their customers consume content on their web sites, which can be then fed into online advertising and search services to improve the relevance of services and content delivery.{{citation needed|date=August 2012}}
