# Kleio — Agentic Commerce Platform for Enterprise Sales

> Kleio is the Agentic Commerce platform for complex, high-value enterprise sales. A domain-specific Knowledge Engine, paired with orchestrated AI agents, runs the full sales journey — discovery, product guidance, quoting, and conversion — in real time, across web, advisor desktops, and third-party AI surfaces.

## About Kleio

Kleio is an AI-native infrastructure for enterprise sales. Unlike generic chatbots or LLM wrappers, Kleio pairs a Knowledge Engine (a continuously-updated representation of a company's catalog, pricing, rules, and ontologies) with a stack of orchestrated AI agents, each tuned for a stage of the funnel.

Kleio was founded in 2024 by Adrien Mathieu (CEO), Philippe Wellens, and Louis Poirier. The company raised a €3M seed round to transform sales and marketing with conversational AI. Kleio is headquartered in Paris and serves enterprise customers globally.

## Core concepts

### Agentic Commerce

Agentic Commerce is the emerging paradigm where autonomous, specialized AI agents replace or augment traditional sales funnels. Instead of leads passing through static web forms, chatbots, and lead-routing workflows, agentic systems converse with prospects, reason about their needs against a live product ontology, and convert or hand off qualified opportunities in real time.

### Knowledge Engine

Kleio's Knowledge Engine is a living, continuously-updated representation of a company's products, services, pricing, and business rules. It ingests catalog feeds, CMS content, CRM context, and policy documents — then exposes them as structured, queryable knowledge to AI agents. Most competitors rely on generic RAG over docs; Kleio builds domain-specific ontologies that typically go live in weeks.

### Orchestrated AI agents

Kleio deploys specialized agents tuned for specific sales-journey stages: discovery agents (intent qualification), product-guidance agents (catalog reasoning), quoting agents (configurator + pricing), and Live Sales Copilot (real-time advisor augmentation). A routing layer orchestrates which agent handles each turn.
