Texas TRAIGA
The Texas Responsible AI Governance Act (HB 149), in force since January 1, 2026. Intent-based prohibitions on harmful AI uses, enforced by the Texas Attorney General.
Intent-based prohibitions, enforced by the Attorney General.
TRAIGA takes a different shape from the risk-tier laws: it prohibits developing or deploying AI for specified harmful purposes — inciting self-harm or crime, unlawful discrimination, certain biometric capture, and deceptive deepfakes. It applies to anyone developing or deploying AI in Texas, doing business in Texas, or offering products used by Texas residents.
Enforcement sits exclusively with the Texas Attorney General; there is no private right of action, and a cure period applies before penalties.
The files this framework actually requires.
TRAIGA is about demonstrable acceptable-use governance. Hael records the policies and controls that evidence it.
GRC tools tell you these are missing. Hael generates them — from each system's real configuration.
A checklist tells you what's missing. Hael puts it on record.
A checklist asks if you have an acceptable-use policy. Hael generates it and records the controls that enforce it.

The acceptable-use and control records that evidence TRAIGA compliance feed your broader governance programme — overlapping the EU AI Act's prohibited-practices and the risk controls under NIST.
Already in force — evidence it now, not after a complaint.
TRAIGA has applied since January 2026. Hael records the acceptable-use governance the Texas AG expects.
