The main idea of this paper is to introduce the notion of $cat^1$-monoids and to prove that the category of crossed semimodules ${\mathcal{C}}=(A,B,{\partial})$ where A is a group is equivalent to the category of $cat^1$-monoids. This is a generalization of the well known equivalence between category of $cat^1$-groups and that of crossed modules over groups.
