CleverSense?s Seymour Takes A Different Approach To Local Recommendations

Between Yelp, Foursquare, Facebook, Google and countless startups, there's no shortage of services looking to offer you restaurant and activity recommendations while you're on the go. But there's a reason there's so much competition: as smartphones become increasingly common, this market is going to be absolutely massive. Which means there's plenty of room for more than one winner. Which brings us to a new company called CleverSense?that is about to join the fray. Led by CEO Babak Pahlavan, the company has spent the last two years working on an algorithm that Pahlavan says is better at making recommendations than many of the existing services. And he has a strong pedigree to back that claim up ? his advisors include Prof. Jeff Ullman of Stanford, who was Ph.D. advisor for Google cofounder Sergey Brin.
