For decades, understanding the brain has been a game of inference—fMRI scans, EEG caps, and invasive electrodes that capture a blurry snapshot of neural activity. Kernel is flipping the script, building a non-invasive, high-resolution data layer that turns the brain from a black box into a readable, quantifiable system.

"Kernel isn't just building a device; they're building the operating system for human cognition."

Unlike competitors who lock data behind proprietary walls, Kernel's leadership team—led by CEO Ryan Field—appears to be building an ecosystem. With directors focused on Applied Science, Clinical Research, and Intellectual Property, they are positioning themselves not just as a device manufacturer, but as a data standard. The lack of public traffic data suggests a direct sales model focused on enterprise and institutional contracts rather than consumer hype.

• Radical non-invasiveness: High-quality data without surgery.
• Scientific rigor: Built for the lab, not just the wellness clinic.
• Scalable infrastructure: A modern tech stack for a hardware company.
• IP moat: Dedicated leadership in Intellectual Property protection.
