Appoint the compliance person you already employ. The system trains them.

A member of your own staff, with no compliance background, reads the training module, answers the interview, and finishes with your EU AI Act documentation cited article by article. The knowledge stays in the business.

Trained compliance people are scarce and expensive. A compliance consultant charges €800 to €1,500 a day, and when the engagement ends the knowledge leaves with them. Enterprise GRC platforms run to €50,000 and more in setup, then charge per seat, per framework, per year, and most assume you already employ a specialist to drive them.

So in most small and medium businesses the work lands on whoever sits closest to IT, tracked in a spreadsheet. That is a single point of failure carrying the compliance position of the whole company, with no training behind it.

The system is built to take a person who has never read the instrument to a completed, cited compliance report. The training module teaches the regulation first, in plain language. Then the system interviews them about your organisation in your own Claude account: upload the files, type START, and answer one question at a time. The working files collect the evidence the instrument asks for and record what is in place and what is missing, and your documentation is produced with article citations an auditor can check against the law.

No consultant, no sales call, no per-seat pricing, no platform you are locked into. A one-time purchase you keep, completed without hiring anyone.

• Your exact position under EU AI Act: what is in place, what is missing, and what to do about each gap.
• Documentation with article citations, ready for auditors, insurers, customers and public buyers.
• A trained person inside the business who understands what the regulation requires, and stays.
• Evidence files you keep on your own systems, with no recurring fee to read your own assessment.
• All of it completed in-house, at your own pace, without booking a single meeting.

Ask a general AI whether it can produce your compliance documentation and it will tell you it can. Models are built to agree with you. It cannot, in one sitting or a thousand, because the capability does not live in the model: it lives in the machine engineering around it, the obligations dictionary, the evidence structure, the citation discipline and the current text of the law.

A general model also answers from its training data, and regulation moves faster than training data. The EU AI Act itself was amended six days before its transparency duties went live: two years of published advice, and every model trained on it, went out of date overnight. An agentic system improvises around the gaps and answers with confidence either way, and you cannot tell which of its answers are current. That is how a business ends up documented against a version of the law that no longer exists.

The ComplianceSME system removes the gamble. Agentic behaviour is engineered out: the AI works inside structured files that hold the accurate, current regulation, it follows the interview, and every finding is produced with article citations you can verify against the regulation itself. The EU AI Act system carries more than 160,000 words of checked compliance content, the full Act across all 113 instruments and 13 annexes, so nobody in your business is burdened with holding it in their head.

The gap between what you think AI can achieve, what AI will say it can achieve, and what it can really achieve is huge. That gap is the first thing every toolkit teaches: the training module opens with AI literacy before it opens the regulation, so the person running the system understands the tool in their hands before they trust it with the law.

Every system in the register is built against a frozen dictionary of 9,904 obligations across 87 instruments, through a documented build method. ComplianceSME's EU AI Act work has been covered in Solicitors Journal. The register, the catalogue and every price are public on this site: no demo call, no quote form, no pipeline.

With the membership, every system you own is updated in your dashboard as the law shifts. ComplianceSME monitors compliance globally and is contributing to the deferred 2027 provisions still to come, the only voice in that process representing 31.6 million SMEs across our 28 nations.

The Article 5 prohibitions and the Article 4 AI literacy duty have applied since 2 February 2025.

The Article 50 transparency duties apply from 2 August 2026.

The high-risk requirements in Chapter III begin on 2 December 2027 for Annex III systems and 2 August 2028 for Annex I systems.

Every date that passes is a duty in force. Documentation is how a business shows the duty was carried.

A consultant at €800 to €1,500 a day charges again for every question, and the knowledge leaves when the invoice is paid. A GRC platform charges every year, for every seat, and holds your assessment inside its subscription. The EU AI Act system is £3,000 once. It trains your own person, and the training, the evidence files and the finished documentation stay in the business.

Does EU AI Act apply to my business?

The free assessment screens for EU AI Act when a business develops, supplies or uses AI systems. The free assessment at compliancesme.com screens your business against all 87 instruments in the register at once, and takes about ten minutes.

What is EU AI Act?

EU AI Act is Regulation (EU) 2024/1689, a binding instrument in the European Union. Risk-based obligations for providers and deployers of AI systems in the EU.

How much does the EU AI Act compliance system cost?

The EU AI Act compliance system costs £3,000 as a one-time purchase, downloaded immediately after checkout. An optional membership at £500 per month keeps every system you own current when the law changes; the system works without it and remains yours either way.

Do I need a consultant to comply with EU AI Act?

No. The system runs in your own Claude account, interviews you in plain language one question at a time, collects the evidence the instrument asks for, and produces your compliance documentation with article citations. It is a documentation tool, not legal advice.

Who in my business should run the EU AI Act system?

Any member of staff who is comfortable with a computer. The training module teaches the regulation before the interview begins, so no compliance background is required. Owners typically appoint an operations manager, an office manager or an IT lead, and the system takes that person from first reading to finished, cited documentation.
