AI Policy Compliance Checker

An AI policy compliance checker maps an AI system to the obligations a governance framework places on it. Choose the framework, the risk category and the deployment region, and it lists the requirements that follow, and flags the cases, like an unacceptable-risk system in the EU, where deployment is simply prohibited.

Frameworks it covers

The checker knows four reference frameworks. The EU AI Act is risk-tiered: minimal, limited, high and unacceptable, with obligations that escalate sharply and a hard prohibition at the top. The NIST AI Risk Management Framework organises around four functions, Govern, Map, Measure and Manage. The OECD AI Principles and ISO/IEC 42001, the AI management-system standard, provide the other two lenses.

What risk category triggers

Under the EU AI Act, a high-risk system, hiring, credit scoring, biometric identification and similar, triggers the heavy obligations: a risk-management system, technical documentation, logging and traceability, human oversight, and demonstrated accuracy, robustness and cybersecurity. An unacceptable-risk system, such as social scoring, cannot be deployed in the EU at all, and the checker says so rather than listing requirements. Limited-risk systems like chatbots mainly trigger transparency duties; minimal-risk systems have essentially none.

Region matters

The same system carries different duties by where it is deployed. The EU AI Act applies to systems placed on the EU market or whose output is used in the EU, regardless of where the provider sits, so a US company serving EU users is in scope. The checker uses the region to decide whether the AI Act tiering applies or whether a lighter, principles-based framework governs.

Scope and honesty

This is a mapping aid, not legal advice or a conformity assessment. The EU AI Act's obligations phase in over time and the detailed requirements run to hundreds of pages; the checker gives the shape of what applies so you know which framework and tier you are in. Confirm the specifics with the actual text and, for high-risk or unacceptable cases, with counsel.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which frameworks does it support?

The EU AI Act, the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, the OECD AI Principles and ISO/IEC 42001. You pick one, then set the risk category and region to see the obligations it imposes.

What makes a system high-risk under the EU AI Act?

Use in areas the Act lists as high-risk, including employment and hiring, credit scoring, biometric identification, critical infrastructure and essential services. These trigger risk management, documentation, logging, human oversight and robustness requirements.

Why does deployment region change the requirements?

The EU AI Act applies based on the EU market and EU use of outputs, not the provider's location, so a non-EU company serving EU users is covered. Other regions may rely on principles-based frameworks with lighter obligations.

What does an unacceptable-risk result mean?

That the system falls into a category the EU AI Act prohibits, such as social scoring or certain biometric surveillance. It cannot be deployed in the EU, so the checker reports prohibition rather than a list of requirements to meet.

Is this legal advice?

No. It is a mapping tool that shows which framework and risk tier apply and the shape of the resulting obligations. The detailed requirements are extensive and phase in over time; confirm them against the framework text and, for high-risk cases, with legal counsel.
