Find out what the EU AI Act means for your AI systems.

Describe your company and the AI you build or use. You get a clear answer on whether each system is high-risk, a to-do list of what you must do and by when, and an assistant that explains every duty in plain words.

Know where you stand

Answer a few questions about each AI system and see whether it is high-risk, why, and from which date the rules apply to you. The same answers always give the same result.

A to-do list, not a legal text

See the duties that apply to your role, in plain words and with deadlines. Track what is done, and ask the assistant what any duty means for you.

Always the current law

The AI Act is changing. You always work from the latest consolidated text, and you can see when each rule takes effect.

Four risk levels

The higher the risk, the more rules apply.

  1. Prohibited Art. 5

    Not allowed. Examples: social scoring, emotion recognition at work or in schools, untargeted scraping of facial images.

  2. High-risk Art. 6 · Annex III

    Allowed with strict rules. Safety components of regulated products, and eight areas such as employment and HR.

  3. Transparency Art. 50

    People must know that AI is involved: chatbots, AI-generated content and deepfakes.

  4. Minimal risk Art. 95

    No special rules beyond voluntary codes of conduct. Examples: spam filters, AI in games.

Use it from your AI assistant

Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or VS Code to the AI Act over MCP. Your assistant then answers from the text in force and cites the paragraph, instead of guessing.

  • Ask what the Act requires, with every answer tied to the article and paragraph.
  • Look up any unit and see when each rule applies.
