Question 1 of 10

Do you know what AI tools your company uses?

The AI Act requires a complete inventory of all AI-powered software, including tools like ChatGPT, AI features in your CRM, automated chatbots, or AI-powered recruitment screening.

Yes, we have a full documented list of every AI toolWe know about some of them, but probably not allA few people use AI tools, but nobody tracks them centrallyWe honestly don't know what AI tools are in use

Question 2 of 10

Have you checked which risk category your AI tools fall into?

The AI Act sorts AI systems into four risk levels: prohibited, high-risk, limited risk, and minimal risk. The rules you follow depend on this classification.

Yes, every AI tool has been classifiedWe've started classifying some, but not allWe know the categories exist but haven't classified anythingThis is the first we're hearing about risk categories

Question 3 of 10

Have you checked for banned AI uses?

Since February 2025, certain AI uses are already illegal in the EU. These include social scoring, manipulative AI, and some uses of facial recognition.

We've reviewed our tools and confirmed none are bannedWe've looked into it but aren't 100% sureWe know some AI uses are banned but haven't checked our own toolsWe didn't know some AI uses are already illegal

Question 4 of 10

If you use high-risk AI, do you have documentation for it?

High-risk AI includes systems used for hiring decisions, credit scoring, security, or critical infrastructure. These require detailed technical documentation about how the system works and what safeguards are in place.

Yes, we have complete documentation readyWe're working on itWe know we need it but haven't startedWe're not sure if any of our AI counts as high-risk

Question 5 of 10

Can a human review and override your AI decisions?

The AI Act requires that people can step in and override AI-powered decisions, especially in high-risk areas. Someone in your organisation must be able to review what the AI decided and change it.

Yes, we have clear processes with named responsible peopleSome oversight exists but it's informalWe've talked about it but nothing is set upNobody currently reviews AI decisions

Question 6 of 10

Have your employees received AI training?

Since February 2025, the AI Act requires that staff who work with AI systems understand the basics: how they work, their limitations, and the risks. This applies to everyone who uses AI tools, not just IT.

Yes, we've run a training programmeSome key people have been trained, not everyoneWe're planning training but haven't done it yetNo training has happened and none is planned

Question 7 of 10

Do you control what data goes into your AI systems?

The AI Act requires rules about what data your AI tools can access. This means knowing what data feeds into AI systems, where it comes from, and having policies about data quality.

Yes, we have documented data governance rules for AIWe have some controls but they're not comprehensiveWe know we should do this but haven't startedWe haven't thought about AI-specific data governance

Question 8 of 10

Do you know if your AI tools need formal testing before the deadline?

Some AI systems need to pass a "conformity assessment" before the deadline. Think of it like a safety inspection. You need to figure out which tools require this and get it done in time.

Yes, we know which tools need it and testing is planned or doneWe've identified some, but not allWe know this is required but haven't figured out which tools need itWe didn't know formal testing was required

Question 9 of 10

Is someone at your company responsible for AI Act compliance?

Just like GDPR has a DPO, AI Act compliance needs an owner. Someone who tracks deadlines, coordinates with departments, and makes sure things get done.

Yes, there's a dedicated person or teamIt's part of someone's job, but not their main focusWe're still figuring out who should own thisNobody has been assigned to AI Act compliance

Question 10 of 10

Do you know who enforces the AI Act in your country?

Each EU member state has designated national authorities that oversee AI Act enforcement. Knowing who they are and their local requirements is part of being prepared.

Yes, we know our national authority and are engaging with themWe know who they are but haven't reached outWe're not sure which authority handles thisWe didn't know each country has a designated authority
