EU AI Act Compliance Checker (AI Act Service Desk)
The Commission’s own questionnaire on the AI Act Service Desk: it asks what an AI system or general-purpose model does and who you are in the chain, and answers which rules of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 may apply (prohibited practices, high-risk obligations, transparency duties). In beta; its outcome is not an official position of the Commission.
When to use itYou need a first answer to "is this system in scope of the AI Act, and in which risk class?".
