EU AI Act Compliance, Answered
Everything you need to know about classifying, registering, and continuously monitoring AI systems under the EU's landmark regulation.
The EU AI Act entered into force on August 1, 2024. Full enforcement begins August 2, 2026. Prohibited AI practices were banned from February 2, 2025. GPAI obligations apply from August 2, 2025.
The EU AI Act defines 6 risk tiers: Unacceptable (banned), High-Risk (Annex III — 11 categories), Limited Risk (transparency obligations), Minimal Risk (voluntary codes), GPAI, and GPAI with Systemic Risk. Use our /classify tool to determine your system's classification.
Fines up to €35 million or 7% of global annual turnover for prohibited AI practices. Up to €15 million or 3% for other violations. Up to €7.5 million or 1.5% for incorrect information to regulators.
Article 27 requires deployers of high-risk AI systems to conduct FRIAs before deployment. EUAI provides guided FRIA workflows covering all required dimensions: discrimination, privacy, human dignity, and democratic participation.
Yes. Article 49 requires providers and deployers of high-risk AI systems to register in the EU database before placing the system on the market or putting it into service.
High-risk AI systems must be designed to allow effective human oversight. This includes the ability for humans to understand, monitor, and intervene in the AI system's operation. EUAI logs every oversight decision.
Article 73 requires providers of high-risk AI systems to report serious incidents to the relevant market-surveillance authority. The default window is 15 days (Article 73(2)); 2 days for critical-infrastructure disruption (Article 73(3)); 10 days for death or widespread serious harm (Article 73(4)). EUAI automates the reporting workflow with structured evidence submission and deadline tracking keyed to the correct sub-clause.
Yes. EUAI tracks GPAI model registration, code of practice signatory status, systemic risk classification, fine-tuning tracking, and significant modification detection per Articles 51-56.
Article 43 requires a conformity assessment before placing high-risk AI on the market. Most systems use internal assessment (Annex VI). Biometric and critical infrastructure AI require notified body involvement (Annex VII). EUAI guides you through both paths.
Yes. The Evidence Pack Generator creates comprehensive compliance bundles with system documentation, risk assessments, conformity declarations, oversight logs, incident reports, and training records — formatted for regulatory submission.
