OpenAI EU AI Act Compliance Checker

OpenAI in production? The EU AI Act applies to you directly.

Up to €35,000,000 in fines

The EU AI Act applies to any company using AI in the EU, regardless of the AI's origin. GPT-4 and OpenAI embeddings can be classified as high-risk systems, requiring a formal risk assessment, documentation, and human oversight.

Typical Compliance Gaps in OpenAI Applications

🔑

Incomplete GPT-4 Model Card

Most OpenAI applications fail to properly document the GPT-4 Model Card: source, capabilities, limitations, bias metrics. The scanner detects missing data.

📊

No Risk Assessment

Article 6 requires a formal risk assessment. The scanner checks whether your OpenAI use case has been classified per EU AI Act criteria.

👤

Human Oversight Not Configured

Article 14 mandates human oversight for high-risk systems using OpenAI. The scanner verifies that you have an operational human control mechanism.

📋

Missing Data Contracts

OpenAI processes data for training. Article 10 requires explicit documentation of data flows. The scanner detects missing or incomplete service contracts.

⚠️

Insufficient Audit Trail

Article 12 requires a complete audit trail. The scanner verifies that every OpenAI call is logged (input, output, decision, human action) persistently and auditably.

Full Compliance Check in 3 Minutes

A complete analysis of your OpenAI applications takes under 3 minutes. Get a compliance score and detailed recommendations immediately.

Example: Checking an OpenAI Support System

Scenario: You operate a customer support system using the OpenAI GPT-4 API. The system classifies tickets, proposes solutions, and automatically escalates to a human. You need to check if it's compliant with the EU AI Act before the August 2, 2026 deadline.

What the scanner finds:
• Classification: High-risk system (automating a decision that affects consumer rights — ticket escalation)
• Gap 1: Incomplete OpenAI GPT-4 Model Card — missing capability documentation, no accuracy metrics
• Gap 2: No formal risk assessment documented — no justification for the "high-risk" classification
• Gap 3: Human oversight mechanism absent — automatic escalation is not real human oversight
• Gap 4: OpenAI training data not versioned — GPT-4 will have updates, versioning required
• Gap 5: Incomplete audit trail — logs only contained decisions, not OpenAI input or decision context

Result: Compliance score 1/5 requirements met. Detailed recommendations and templates provided for each gap.
