What is the EU AI Act?
The EU AI Act is the world's first comprehensive AI regulation, adopted by the European Union. It classifies AI systems by risk level and imposes requirements ranging from transparency obligations to outright bans, depending on the risk category.
Risk Categories
How the EU AI Act classifies AI systems
Every feature designed to help your team work smarter with AI.
Unacceptable risk
AI systems that pose an unacceptable risk are banned, including social scoring systems and certain real-time biometric identification uses.
High risk
AI systems in critical areas like healthcare, employment, and education face strict requirements including risk assessments, documentation, and human oversight.
Limited risk
AI systems like chatbots must meet transparency obligations — users must be informed they are interacting with AI.
Minimal risk
Most AI applications face no additional requirements beyond existing regulations, though codes of conduct are encouraged.
Documentation requirements
High-risk systems require technical documentation, risk management systems, data governance, and human oversight measures.
Ongoing monitoring
Deployers of high-risk AI systems must monitor performance, report incidents, and maintain quality management systems.
