EU AI Act Compliance
Navigate Europe's risk-based AI law
The EU AI Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689) is the world's first comprehensive AI law. It classifies AI systems into risk tiers - unacceptable, high, limited, and minimal - with extra rules for general-purpose AI models, and applies to any provider or deployer whose AI systems affect people in the EU. Fines reach up to €35 million or 7% of global turnover.
