The real AI Act problem

Companies don't know if they are AI providers, deployers, or both.

Obligations depend on how AI is used, not on the model itself.

Documentation becomes outdated as soon as systems or vendors change.

Audits, enterprise customers, and boards expect immediate answers.

AI Act compliance is not a one-time exercise.
It's an operational problem.

Compliance attaches to deployments, not to AI models

That's why the platform mirrors the structure of the AI Act itself

Company

the legal entity ultimately responsible for compliance

Workspaces

distinct operational perimeters where AI is developed, tested, or used

AI assets

the underlying AI systems or models, independent from any single feature

Deployments

how those AI assets are actually used in practice, by whom, and for what purpose

Under the AI Act, obligations, risk classification, and roles attach to deployments not to AI models in isolation. This ensures compliance decisions reflect real-world AI use, not theoretical system descriptions.

Scope

Define where AI exists, how it's used, and who is responsible.

•Maps AI usage across companies and workspaces
•Identifies AI assets and their concrete deployments
•Determines your role under the AI Act (provider, deployer, or both)

Misclassifying your role means misapplying every obligation that follows.

Obligations

Know exactly what the AI Act requires, per deployment.

•Assigns regulatory requirements at the deployment level
•Based on role, risk classification, and usage context
•Generates clear, trackable checklists
•Separates applicable obligations from irrelevant ones

The AI Act is obligation-driven. Guessing is not a strategy.

Evidence

Always-ready documentation to prove compliance.

•Centralizes compliance documentation per workspace and deployment
•Includes system descriptions and risk assessments
•Tracks human oversight measures and monitoring controls

Static documents fail the moment reality changes.

Continuity

Stay compliant as AI systems, vendors, and uses change.

•Monitors changes to AI assets, deployments, and operational perimeters
•Flags when obligations or risk levels must be updated
•Alerts when documentation needs to be refreshed

Most compliance failures happen after the first assessment.

AI Act compliance readiness assessment

Identify your AI Act obligations, classify risk exposure, and uncover compliance gaps — with a guided interactive assessment.

Built for teams that can't ignore regulation

EU-based or EU-operating

Active AI deployments

Exposure to audits

Legal & compliance leaders

Risk & trust teams

Engineering leaders accountable for AI systems

Built by people who've done this before

Experience in legaltech and regulated environments

Built with legal and technical teams

Not Big-4 complexity

What are the main goals and scope of the EU AI Act?

Aigolex Team10 October 2025

The main goals of the EU AI Act are to improve the functioning of the internal market by establishing a uniform legal framework for the development, placing on the market, putting into service, and use of AI systems. Specifically, the Act aims to:

•Promote the uptake of human-centric and trustworthy AI across the European Union.
•Ensure a high level of protection for health, safety, and fundamental rights (such as democracy, the rule of law, and environmental protection) against the harmful effects of AI.
•Support innovation while ensuring the free, cross-border movement of AI-based goods and services.

The scope of the EU AI Act is broad and has an extraterritorial reach, meaning it applies to entities both inside and outside of the EU depending on where the AI system is used or where its outputs are felt. Under the Act, obligations, risk classifications, and roles attach to actual, real-world deployments of AI — how it is used in practice and for what purpose — rather than just abstract AI models in isolation.

Who does the Act apply to?

The Act specifically applies to:

•Providers placing AI systems or general-purpose AI models on the Union market or putting them into service, regardless of whether they are located within the EU or in a third country.
•Deployers of AI systems who are established or located within the EU.
•Providers and deployers located in a third country, as long as the output produced by the AI system is intended to be used in the Union.
•Importers, distributors, and product manufacturers placing AI systems on the EU market under their own name or trademark.
•Authorised representatives of providers not established in the Union.
•Affected persons who are located in the Union.

Exclusions from the scope

The EU AI Act explicitly excludes certain uses and systems from its regulatory framework:

•Military, defence, and national security: AI systems placed on the market, put into service, or used exclusively for military, defence, or national security purposes are exempt, regardless of whether the entity carrying out those activities is public or private.
•Scientific research and development: AI systems and models specifically developed and put into service for the sole purpose of scientific R&D are excluded to respect the freedom of science and avoid undermining innovation.
•Pre-market R&D: The Act does not apply to research, testing, or development activities regarding AI systems prior to them being placed on the market or put into service (though testing in "real-world conditions" is not exempt).
•Personal use: Deployers who are natural persons using AI systems for purely personal, non-professional activities are exempt.
•Open-source software: The Act generally does not apply to AI systems released under free and open-source licenses, unless those systems are classified as high-risk, fall under prohibited AI practices, or trigger specific transparency rules.
