Sennos secures US$15 million to expand AI-powered fermentation platform

Sennos, a USA-based developer of AI-driven sensing and analytics technologies for the fermentation and fluidics industries, has secured US$15 million in new funding. The round was led by Stockholm-based TomEnterprise, founded by Thomas von Koch and Jan Ståhlberg, and will enable Sennos to expand its technology beyond its core brewing market into adjacent sectors such as biofuels, alternative proteins, and pharmaceuticals.

Formerly known as Precision Fermentation, Sennos has collected and analyzed real-time fermentation data since 2017, building what it describes as the largest real-time fermentation database in the world. The company's technology provides brewers with continuous insight into fermentation processes, allowing them to make faster decisions, reduce variability, and improve consistency.

“All great innovation begins with one thing – understanding,” said Jared Resnick, Chief Executive Officer & Founder of Sennos. “We started the company to help brewers truly understand what was happening inside their fermentation tanks in real-time. That changed everything.”

The funding will support further scaling within the brewing and beverage industries, where Sennos already has a strong customer base, while also accelerating entry into broader fermentation markets. These sectors, including alternative proteins and biofuels, are increasingly under pressure to improve sustainability, reduce waste, and manage complex production processes more efficiently.

Sennos’ platform addresses a key limitation in traditional fermentation monitoring, where operators often rely on siloed, enterprise-level data systems that provide limited visibility. By transforming fragmented data into live, actionable insights, Sennos aims to improve production yields, reduce downtime, and optimize quality across fermentation-based industries.

Alongside the funding announcement, Sennos also unveiled its new technology platform, combining its M3 Sensor System with the AI-enabled Sennos BrewIQ system. According to the company, the platform is designed to deliver real-time intelligence and enhanced process control, setting what it hopes will become a new standard for precision fermentation.

“This funding gives us the ability to scale within the brewing and beverage space, where we’ve already proven the value of our technology, and sets the stage to bring that same level of understanding to every other industry where fermentation unlocks significant gains,” Resnick added.
