EU AI Act Readiness Assessment

Understand what your AI systems actually do, where each one sits on the regulatory risk spectrum, and what obligations apply.

cAIberion's EU AI Act Readiness Assessment provides a complete picture of your AI obligations: which systems are in scope, how they are classified under the risk-tier framework, and what you need to do to achieve compliance — built on the NIST AI RMF as the operational baseline and cross-mapped to ISO/IEC 42001 so the same evidence base also supports certification readiness.

The EU AI Act becomes enforceable in August 2026, with prohibited-AI provisions already in force — but the deeper purpose of this assessment is operational clarity over a portfolio of AI systems that often grew faster than the governance around them. cAIberion classifies your AI systems by risk tier and evaluates compliance with Articles 9 through 15 covering risk management, data governance, transparency, human oversight, accuracy, and cybersecurity. Each high-risk control is cross-mapped to the relevant NIST AI RMF function (Govern / Map / Measure / Manage) and to ISO/IEC 42001 Annex A — giving you a single control library that satisfies the EU regulator, the certification body, and your own internal audit function. The deliverable is an AI system inventory, risk classification per system, gap analysis against applicable obligations, and a compliance roadmap. Particularly valuable for organisations deploying AI in HR, credit scoring, biometrics, critical infrastructure, or other regulated domains.
