EU AI Act Compliance Checklist 2025: Automated Tool & Complete Guide

Our automated compliance platform turns months of EU AI Act work into minutes. Use this updated checklist to stay ahead of the 2025 enforcement deadlines and avoid penalties of up to €35 M or 7 % of global turnover.
The EU AI Act is the world’s first comprehensive law regulating Artificial Intelligence. Whether you’re a fledgling start‑up or a global ISV, the obligations – risk management, data governance, human oversight and post‑market monitoring – are non‑negotiable. This guide distils every requirement into actionable steps and pairs each step with tooling you can automate today.
What is the EU AI Act?
Adopted in 2024 and entering into force in phased stages through 2027, the EU AI Act classifies AI systems by risk: prohibited, high‑risk, limited‑risk and minimal‑risk. High‑risk systems – the focus of most B2B products – require conformity assessments, rich technical documentation (Annex IV) and continuous monitoring (Article 72).
