Operationalize the
European AI Act compliance
With Naaia, you ensure up-to-date and full compliance to all European AI Act obligations thanks to an integrated qualification of operator status and risk level and an automated operational action plan.
Assess your complianceA risk-based approach
The AI Act establishes a legal framework intended to regulate the use of AI systems within the European Union. It is an horizontal regulation, defining AI as a regulated product across all stages of its lifecycle.
Test
The AI Act takes a risk-based approach and classifies AI systems according to their potential risks and level of impact. The text distinguishes four levels of risk, and provides a specific category for general-purpose AI models.
AI systems are then subject to more or less stringent rules, depending on their level of risk.
Unacceptable risk – Prohibited
AI systems that pose a clear threat to fundamental rights are strictly banned. No exceptions.
High risk – Strict obligations
AI systems with significant impact on people's lives. Subject to conformity assessments, technical documentation, and registration.
Limited risk – Transparency obligations
AI systems with specific transparency risks, like deception or misinformation. Subject to disclosure of AI interaction, disclosure of AI-generated content, and enhanced transparency requirements
Minimal risk – No specific obligations
No mandatory requirements, but voluntary codes of conduct are encouraged.
General-Purpose AI Models (GPAI) – Specific category
Subject to baseline requirements (notably, copyright compliance, and transparency on training data), with additional obligations for models with systemic risk, including risk and cybersecurity management.
The importance of defining the operator status
The level of obligations will depend, on top of the risk, on the status of operator. Whether you are provider, deployer, distributor, you will have differences of obligations to bear with great impact on the action plans in the platform.
What is the cost of non-compliance?
In case of non-compliance, the sanctions provided reflect the significant societal, economic, and ethical stakes associated with AI. The penalties can reach 1% of annual turnover or €7.5 million for providing incorrect, incomplete, or misleading information to competent authorities, and rise to €35 million for non-compliance with prohibited AI practices.

Frequently asked questions
-
Which AI systems are covered by the EU AI Act, and what risk categories apply?
The EU AI Act covers AI systems developed, placed on the market, or used in the European Union — applying to both EU-based and non-EU organizations that offer AI-enabled products or services to EU users. The Act establishes four risk categories:
(1) Prohibited AI practices (e.g., social scoring, real-time biometric surveillance in public spaces) — banned since February 2025;
(2) High-risk AI systems (Annex I: products covered by Union harmonisation legislation, such as toys or machinery; Annex III: high-risk areas such as recruitment, credit, critical infrastructure, medical devices, etc.) — subject to the most comprehensive compliance obligations;
(3) Limited-risk systems (e.g., chatbots, deepfakes) — subject to transparency and disclosure requirements;
(4) Minimal-risk systems — no specific obligations beyond general product safety. -
What are the main obligations under the EU AI Act for high-risk AI system providers?
Providers of high-risk AI systems must fulfill six core obligations:
(1) Implement a risk management system covering the entire system lifecycle (Article 9);
(2) Ensure high-quality training, validation, and testing data (Article 10);
(3) Maintain technical documentation sufficient to demonstrate compliance (Article 11);
(4) Enable automatic logging of system operation events (Article 12);
(5) Provide transparency and clear user instructions (Article 13); and
(6) Implement human oversight measures (Article 14).
Providers must also register high-risk AI systems in the EU public database and conduct post-market monitoring once deployed. -
How can organizations prepare for EU AI Act compliance?
With the August 2026 deadline for compliance of high-risk systems and systems subject to specific transparency obligations approaching, organizations should prioritize five actions:
(1) Conduct an AI system inventory to identify all systems within scope under Annex I and Annex III for high-risk systems, as well as Article 50 for systems subject to specific transparency obligations;
(2) Classify each system by risk level to determine applicable obligations;
(3) Perform a gap analysis against Articles 9–14 to identify missing documentation, controls, and processes;
(4) Establish a cross-functional AI governance team with clear ownership of each compliance workstream;
(5) Implement a governance platform to manage documentation, evidence collection, and ongoing monitoring at scale.
Organizations that begin now have sufficient time to achieve compliance — those that delay risk missing the deadline.
