KANISHK JOSHI

Kanishk Joshi is the founder and lead researcher of RA1 Labs, an independent AI research organization working on mechanistic interpretability and hardware-integrated inference. Based in Jodhpur, Rajasthan, India.

Work

Kanishk designs and builds neural inference systems from first principles. He is the creator of Raven, RA1 Labs' GPU inference engine, which reached verify-all parity at 0.00% divergence across 8 models.

Approach

• Build from first principles — understand deeply before building.
• Verify rigorously — prove results before claiming them.
• Operate independently — no institutional affiliation, no external funding, research driven by technical truth.

He believes intelligence — human and artificial — is not inherited but built, piece by piece, proof by proof.

Founder of RA1 Labs (est. 2026). Also founder and IGL of Cybears, a competitive Valorant esports organization.
