The RegulatoryBridge EU AI Act Risk Classifier helps businesses identify potential regulatory obligations and understand the next steps towards responsible AI governance.
Start your assessment to explore your AI system's potential risk classification.
The EU AI Act follows a risk-based approach. The obligations that apply depend on the characteristics and intended use of an AI system.
Certain practices are prohibited because they pose unacceptable risks to safety, fundamental rights or human dignity.
Certain systems used in areas such as employment, education, essential services, critical infrastructure and regulated products may face extensive compliance requirements.
Certain AI systems must meet disclosure or content-identification requirements, including applicable rules for AI interactions and AI-generated or manipulated content.
Many AI applications fall outside the Act's high-risk requirements, although other applicable legal obligations may still apply.
These categories are a practical starting point. The exact obligations depend on the applicable provisions, the system's intended purpose and the organisation's role.
The assessment first checks whether the system may involve an AI practice prohibited under Article 5 of the EU AI Act. A potentially prohibited practice requires careful legal review before the system is developed, deployed or used.
If no prohibited practice is identified, the assessment considers whether the system may qualify as high-risk under Article 6 and the relevant provisions of Annex I or Annex III.
The assessment considers whether the system may trigger specific transparency obligations, such as informing people that they are interacting with AI or meeting applicable requirements for certain AI-generated content.
Based on your answers, the tool provides a preliminary classification and highlights areas that may require further assessment, documentation or compliance planning.
Where an AI system is classified as high-risk and the relevant obligations apply, the organisation may need to address requirements relating to:
The requirements differ according to the system's classification and the organisation's role, including whether it acts as a provider, deployer, importer or distributor.
The tool is designed for:
Understanding your AI system's likely classification early can help your organisation identify potential obligations, allocate compliance resources and incorporate governance controls into the development and deployment lifecycle.
A structured assessment can also help identify when specialist legal or technical review is appropriate. Classification should be revisited when the system's intended purpose, functionality, deployment context or applicable regulatory requirements change.
It is a preliminary assessment tool that helps organisations evaluate an AI system against relevant risk categories under the EU AI Act. Its result is an initial indication, not a binding legal determination.
No. High-risk classification depends on the applicable legal criteria, intended purpose and use. Many AI systems are not classified as high-risk, although they may still be subject to other AI Act provisions or other laws.
Do not rely on the automated result alone. Review the relevant Article 5 provision and obtain appropriate legal advice before proceeding with the potentially prohibited activity.
Depending on the system and applicable implementation dates, requirements may include risk management, data governance, technical documentation, logging, human oversight, cybersecurity, conformity assessment and post-market monitoring.
No. A low-risk classification does not automatically establish compliance with the entire EU AI Act or other applicable laws. Transparency, AI literacy, data protection, product safety and other requirements may still be relevant.
No. It provides preliminary guidance based on the information supplied. A complete assessment may require review of the system's intended purpose, technical documentation, deployment context and applicable legal provisions.
Understanding your AI system's risk category is an important first step. RegulatoryBridge can help your organisation evaluate potential obligations, identify governance gaps and develop a structured approach to AI compliance.
