About Rana

Rana Gujral builds at the frontier of Artificial Intelligence—AI, Cognitive AI, and the long-horizon path toward AGI. As CEO of Behavioral Signals, he turns advances in speech-signal processing and representation learning into production systems that infer intent, emotion, and risk from voice—powering real-time interaction intelligence, trust & safety, and deepfake detection. His interests span paralinguistics, self-supervised/transformer speech embeddings, Artificial General Experience (AGE), robotics, and cybersecurity. Previously, he founded TiZE (acquired by Alchemy), led Smart Home at Logitech, and drove an innovation-led platform rebuild in consumer tech that returned the business from near-bankruptcy to profitable growth and set the path to its later $4.4B IPO.

Rana speaks at the World Economic Forum, The Next Web (TNW), LEAP/DeepFest, CES, WAICF, and TEDx, and writes for TechCrunch and Forbes on applied AI, voice intelligence, leadership, and responsible deployment. Recognition includes Inc.’s “AI Entrepreneur to Watch” and SoundHound’s “Top 40 Voice AI Influencers.”
