About · Who we are
Structural AI governance for the companies building America's future.
Headquartered in Manchester, Connecticut, Kneuralabs LLC delivers AI governance advisory services built for the realities of the U.S. mid-market — companies with complex AI landscapes, limited governance infrastructure, and real regulatory exposure.
Our mission
Governance that is clear, defensible, and built to last.
Every mid-market company running AI deserves that — not only the enterprises with the budget to build it in-house.
Piyal Gupta spent 15 years in enterprise risk — the last several building AI governance frameworks — for organizations with the infrastructure to do it right: dedicated compliance teams, enterprise legal departments, and frameworks written by specialists. Then he started working with mid-market companies. The AI exposure was identical. The regulatory pressure was identical. The governance infrastructure was not. Not because these companies didn't care — because nobody had built the right thing for them.
Kneuralabs was built to close that gap. We combine deep regulatory expertise in NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, and the EU AI Act with a pragmatic, business-first approach to governance. We don't write policies that sit in drawers. We build governance programs that run.
Leadership
Driving the future of accountable AI.
Our leadership team brings together governance strategy, regulatory expertise, and operational execution — built specifically for the realities of the U.S. mid-market.

How we work
Four principles. No exceptions.
Headquartered at Manchester, CT 06042, serving mid-market companies across the United States — with depth in healthcare, financial services, professional services, and technology.
01
Precision
Every engagement is scoped with precision — no generic outputs, no wasted effort. We spend more time on scoping than most consultancies spend on delivery.
02
Transparency
Plain-language outputs. No jargon. No inflated complexity. AI governance should be understood by every person who owns a piece of it.
03
Defensibility
Governance built to withstand regulatory scrutiny and enterprise audit. Defensibility is not a feature — it is the baseline.
04
Sustainability
Governance your team can run independently, long after we leave. We build capability, not dependency.
CT
Connecticut law
All engagements are governed under Connecticut law, with disputes resolved through AAA arbitration in Hartford, Connecticut.
