About Seso

Built to solve the problem that costs growers their harvest.

Seso was founded in 2024 by Daniel Bloch to untangle the H-2A and payroll complexity that keeps farm labour from arriving on time — and turning federal compliance from a source of anxiety into a managed, trackable workflow.

The H-2A program is, on paper, a workable system. A farm identifies a seasonal labour gap, files the paperwork in sequence, and qualified workers arrive in time for harvest. In practice, the sequence has twelve moving parts across four federal agencies, and the penalties for missing any single step fall entirely on the grower.

Daniel founded Seso in 2024 after working directly with agricultural operations and watching the same failure repeat itself: the job order missed the 60-day window because it was sitting in an ops manager's inbox. The AEWR rate for California was pulled from a document dated two seasons prior. The I-9 for three workers was completed on day five instead of day three. The DOL audit notice arrived during peak harvest and the response took twelve staff-hours to assemble. None of these were caused by bad intentions — they were caused by compliance processes running on spreadsheets, email threads, and institutional memory.

Seso was built to make that failure harder to reach. Every deadline tracked. Every document stored in the right place. Every payroll run checked against the current AEWR schedule for your state. Not compliance-by-spreadsheet, but compliance by design.

The team is based in London. The farms we serve are across the continental US. We work across that distance because the problem is worth solving regardless of postcode.

Our Values

How we think about this work

Grower-first clarity

H-2A compliance is genuinely complicated. We don't simplify it past the point of truth — we present it clearly enough that farm operators can make confident decisions without needing a lawyer for every step.

Compliance without shortcuts

We help farms navigate H-2A requirements as they exist — not as we wish they were. Seso guides and tracks; it doesn't cut corners or claim to guarantee outcomes that depend on federal processing timelines.

Tools that work in a barn or a browser

Farm operators are not SaaS power users. We design for the person running their operation from a truck cab or a farmhouse office — not for an enterprise HR department with a dedicated compliance team.
