Kevin McGrath
Kevin spent more than a decade in enterprise data governance and security. His earlier career included a compliance engineering role at a regulated financial services firm, where he spent three years building the internal tooling that ingestion pipelines needed to satisfy SR 11-7 model risk requirements — a context that gave him an unusually precise read on what regulated organizations actually ask for in an AI audit package. He then led GRC tooling at a multi-tenant SaaS, where the problem of isolating customer data across a shared LLM deployment was not hypothetical.
In early 2025, after watching two separate enterprise teams hit the same wall — deploying LLMs against production data without a policy layer, then scrambling to reconstruct prompt histories for a compliance review — he founded Meibel in Denver. The core insight that shaped the architecture: governance controls that depend on application developers making the right choices fail at scale. The control has to live at the infrastructure layer, between the application and the model API, where it cannot be bypassed by a developer shortcut or a missed code review.
Meibel is in private beta with three enterprise organizations across financial services, healthcare, and public sector. Kevin handles all security and enterprise inquiries directly. That is not a marketing claim about founder responsiveness — it is a function of the trust level this product category requires.
