The AI Act is the world's first horizontal regulation of artificial intelligence. It was adopted on 13 June 2024 as Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 and entered into force on 1 August 2024. It applies extraterritorially — under Art. 2(1)(c) it covers any provider or deployer outside the EU whose AI output is used in the Union. The text contains 113 articles and 13 annexes, organised by risk tier: prohibited practices (Art. 5), high-risk (Art. 6 + Annex III), transparency (Art. 50) and general-purpose AI (Chapter V, Arts. 51–56). AICheck structures the technical documentation that Art. 11 + Annex IV require for high-risk systems.

The AI Act builds a four-tier risk pyramid. Every AI system placed on the EU market falls into one (or more) tiers, and obligations stack accordingly.
Art. 2(1)(c) applies to providers and deployers in third countries when the output of the AI system is used in the Union. A US SaaS whose model serves EU users falls inside scope, regardless of where the servers sit.
No. Integrating someone else's model makes you a deployer (Art. 3(4)) of an AI system, with deployer obligations under Art. 26 if the use case is high-risk, and Art. 50 transparency if your application interacts with persons. GPAI provider obligations (Arts. 53–55) apply to whoever puts the model on the market — typically the model developer.
Even outside Annex III, Art. 5 prohibitions, Art. 50 transparency (for chatbots and synthetic content), and Art. 4 AI literacy still apply. Art. 4 has been enforceable since 2 February 2025 against both providers and deployers.
Answer these four questions to determine your obligations.
