Live Regulatory Pressure — EU AI Act

Your AI.
Your Risk.
Our Fix.

AI compliance and governance reduce risk while preparing your organization for the EU AI Act. By August 2026, every business operating in the EU that develops, deploys or uses AI must comply — or face fines of up to €35 million or 7% of global annual turnover. Most German businesses are not ready. We make sure yours is.

EU
AI ACT READY

The Cost of
Doing Nothing
Is Enormous.

The EU AI Act is not a future concern — it is active law. The obligation to comply is already in place for prohibited AI practices, and the full framework applies from August 2026 onwards. Regulators will not wait, and neither will your competitors who are already building compliant systems.

Financial Penalties

Non-compliance carries tiered penalties depending on violation severity. High-risk AI violations carry the largest fines in the framework.
€35M
or 7% global turnover — whichever is higher

Market Access Blocked

Non-compliant AI systems can be banned from the EU market entirely. For businesses relying on AI-driven products, this is existential.

of EU market at risk for banned systems

Reputational Damage

Regulatory action is public. A compliance failure signals to clients, partners and investors that your AI practices are not trustworthy or controlled.

Understanding the Law

What the
EU AI Act
Actually Means
for You

The EU AI Act classifies every AI system your business uses, develops or deploys into one of four risk tiers. The tier determines your obligations — from light transparency duties to full conformity assessments and registration.

The challenge most businesses face: they don’t know which AI systems they’re running, which tier each falls into, or what specific obligations apply. This is where we start.

JEDAM DIGITAL has built a structured compliance methodology that takes you from AI inventory to certified, documented compliance — efficiently, without disrupting your operations.

The AI Data Pipeline

Unacceptable Risk

AI systems that pose unacceptable risk to fundamental rights. Includes social scoring, real-time biometric surveillance in public spaces and subliminal manipulation. These must be removed immediately.

Prohibited — Banned Entirely

High Risk

AI in critical infrastructure, HR/recruitment, education, law enforcement, financial services and medical devices. Requires conformity assessment, registration, human oversight and detailed documentation.

Strict Requirements — Full Compliance Burden

Limited Risk

Chatbots, AI-generated content and emotion recognition systems. Must inform users they are interacting with AI. Simpler to comply with, but non-compliance is still penalized.

Transparency Obligations

Minimal Risk

AI spam filters, recommendation systems, AI-enabled video games. No mandatory requirements but voluntary compliance codes are encouraged. Most businesses have systems across multiple tiers.

Light-Touch — Voluntary Codes of Practice

Who This Is For

Built for
Decision Makers
Under Pressure.

This engagement is designed for businesses that are using AI — even in simple or embedded forms — and have not yet formally assessed their EU AI Act obligations. That is the majority of German businesses right now.

If you have AI in your HR software, your customer service systems, your financial tools or your marketing automation — you need to know your obligations. Assuming you’re compliant is not a legal defence.

Mittelstand & Enterprise Leadership

CEOs, COOs and Boards who need to understand their legal exposure and demonstrate governance to investors and regulators.

Legal & Compliance Teams

In-house counsel and compliance officers who need a technically competent partner to translate AI systems into legal obligations.

CTOs & Technology Leaders

Engineering and product leaders who need a compliance framework that works alongside — not against — their development processes.

AI-Native Scale-Ups

Fast-growing companies where AI is core to the product who need compliance built in from the start — not retrofitted under pressure.

Media, Agency & Creative Companies

Production companies, agencies and media businesses using generative AI tools who need to understand their specific transparency obligations.

FAQ

Common Questions

Q - Does the EU AI Act apply to my business?

Yes. The EU AI Act applies not only to companies that develop AI systems, but also to organizations that deploy or use AI in their business operations. Depending on how AI is used, different obligations may apply.

Q - How long does an AI compliance assessment take?

Most assessments can be completed within a few weeks, depending on the size of your organization and the number of AI systems already in use. We define a clear scope before the engagement begins.

Q - We only use ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot or Gemini. Do we still need to comply?

Potentially, yes. Using third-party AI tools does not automatically exempt your business from the EU AI Act. Certain use cases, internal policies and employee guidance may still be required.

Q - Can you help if we have already implemented AI?

Absolutely. Many organizations approach us after AI tools have already been deployed. We assess existing systems, identify compliance gaps and establish the governance required for long-term, compliant operation.

Q - What happens if we do nothing?

Failure to comply can result in significant financial penalties, regulatory action and reputational damage. More importantly, many organizations expose themselves to avoidable operational and legal risks long before enforcement begins.

Q - Do we need to replace our existing AI systems?

Usually not. In most cases, compliance is achieved through governance, documentation, risk management and process improvements—not by replacing the AI technologies already in use. Our objective is to make your existing AI investments compliant and sustainable.

August 2026
Is Closer
Than You Think.

A 30-day compliance engagement started today puts you well ahead of the deadline with room to resolve gaps and build ongoing governance. Waiting until Q2 2026 means working under time pressure with fewer options. The best time to start was six months ago. The second best time is now.
