What does "Sente" mean?
“Sente” is a Japanese word associated with the ancient Chinese strategy game “Go,” and loosely translates to having the initiative or advantage. When one player is said to be “in sente“, the other player is said to be “in gote“, and must make their moves in response to the player in sente. We believe our services provide a similar advantage to those choosing to work with us, and place opponents – whether they are actual attackers or just broken processes – at a disadvantage.
