EU AI Act Compliance

Compliance through trust, not checkbox exercises

Meet August 2026 EU AI Act requirements with infrastructure built for trustworthy AI. Risk management, documentation, and audit trails built in.

August 2026 is not a deadline - it's a forcing function for trustworthy AI

Our perspective

Compliance is a byproduct of trust

Most companies are scrambling to check boxes before August 2026. They're hiring consultants to write documentation for systems they don't fully understand. This is backwards.

Rotascale's position: If you build trustworthy AI systems - with proper monitoring, governance, and audit trails - compliance is a natural outcome. The EU AI Act requirements aren't arbitrary bureaucracy; they describe what responsible AI looks like.

Risk management

The Act requires continuous risk identification and mitigation. Guardian already monitors for sandbagging, drift, and hallucination. That's risk management in action.

Technical documentation

You need to document how your AI works. If you're using Orchestrate, the reasoning chain is captured automatically. Documentation writes itself.

Human oversight

High-risk AI needs human checkpoints. AgentOps defines exactly when and how humans intervene. It's not an afterthought - it's architecture.

Audit trails

Every decision traceable. Every reasoning chain preserved. The "Agent Flight Recorder" in Orchestrate captures exactly what regulators will ask for.

"If your AI system is trustworthy, proving compliance is documentation. If it's not, no amount of documentation will save you."

Requirements mapping

How Rotascale maps to the EU AI Act

Every major requirement has a corresponding capability in the Rotascale platform.

Article 9: Risk Management System

Continuous identification, analysis, estimation, and evaluation of risks

Guardian

Real-time monitoring detects sandbagging, hallucination, and drift. Risk is quantified, not assumed.

Article 10: Data Governance

Training data must be relevant, representative, and free of errors

Eval

Continuous evaluation against diverse test sets. Bias detection. Distribution analysis. Data quality signals.

Article 11: Technical Documentation

Detailed documentation of system design, development, and testing

Orchestrate

Reasoning chains captured automatically. Agent capabilities documented in registry. Test results preserved.

Article 12: Record-Keeping

Automatic logging of events throughout the system lifecycle

AgentOps

The "Agent Flight Recorder" captures every decision, every reasoning step, every outcome. Immutable audit log.

Article 13: Transparency

Users must know they're interacting with AI and understand its capabilities

Guardian

Confidence calibration ensures AI doesn't overstate certainty. Hallucination detection prevents confident wrong answers.

Article 14: Human Oversight

Humans must be able to understand, monitor, and intervene in AI decisions

Orchestrate Steer

Human-in-the-loop checkpoints. Runtime behavior adjustment via steering vectors. Kill switches built in.

Article 15: Accuracy, Robustness, Cybersecurity

Systems must perform consistently and resist adversarial attacks

Guardian Eval

Continuous accuracy monitoring. Drift detection. Adversarial robustness testing. Sandbagging detection.

High-risk categories

Are you deploying high-risk AI?

The EU AI Act defines specific categories of high-risk AI that face the strictest requirements. If you're in these areas, you need compliant infrastructure.

Financial services

Credit scoring, insurance underwriting, fraud detection. Rotascale has deep expertise in financial AI compliance.

Employment & HR

Recruitment screening, performance evaluation, task allocation. Every decision needs documentation.

Critical infrastructure

Energy, water, transportation systems. Safety-critical AI needs the highest assurance levels.

Healthcare & medical devices

Diagnostic AI, treatment recommendations. Extended deadline to 2027 but preparation starts now.
