August 2, 2026 is not a soft deadline.

High-risk AI systems operating in the EU must demonstrate compliance with the EU AI Act by August 2, 2026. Fines reach €35 million or 7% of global annual turnover — whichever is higher.

Built for the EU AI Act. Not retrofitted for it.

Every response evaluation maps directly to EU AI Act articles and Annex IV documentation requirements.

01

Article-level citations

Every flag cites the specific EU AI Act article it implicates. Not general ethics — precise regulatory mapping.

02

Annex IV structure

Results are organised into the 9 Annex IV sections your technical documentation must address.

03

PDF audit reports

Download a compliance-ready PDF for every evaluation. Formatted for legal and compliance team review.

04

Zero data retention

No evaluation content is stored after delivery. No legal discovery exposure. Your data stays yours.

How it works

One POST. A full Annex IV verdict.

Send your proposed AI response before delivering it to users. Get back a structured EU AI Act assessment with article citations and a recommended action.

Love ethics as much as we do? Get The Works.

Compliance and ethics are not the same thing. A response can satisfy every EU AI Act requirement and still cause harm. The Works Ethic evaluates all 15 dimensions across every major ethics framework — free to start.

The Works Ethic also catches
  • Undermining Human Autonomy
  • Human Dignity
  • Stereotyping
  • Accountability Evasion
  • Environmental Harm

Not in the EU AI Act. Still harmful.

Zero data retention. By design.

ActCheckIt does not store evaluation content after delivery. No response text, no context, no flags — nothing. Every evaluation is generated at call time and delivered directly to you. There is nothing on our servers to subpoena, breach, or accidentally expose. This is not a setting. It is how the system is built.
