GovarnaAre you a deployer under the EU AI Act?
Most B2B SaaS companies are not AI providers; they're deployers— and deployers have obligations of their own. Answer 7 questions to get a suggested classification and a 5-step readiness plan.
Suggested classification, not legal advice. High-risk obligations are enforceable August 2, 2026.
What you get at the end.
Provider, deployer, or out of scope — with the high-risk use cases that drove the result, so you can sanity-check it with counsel.
The concrete next actions for your situation: inventory, classification, oversight, documentation, and evidence.
The logic is deterministic, not a black box — the same inputs always produce the same result, which is what auditors and buyers want to see.
EU AI Act deployer questions, answered.
- What is the difference between a deployer and a provider under the EU AI Act?
- A provider builds or substantially modifies an AI system and puts it on the market. A deployer uses an AI system under its own authority in a professional context. Most B2B SaaS companies are deployers — for example, using a third-party AI tool to screen candidates — and deployers carry their own obligations for human oversight, monitoring, and record-keeping.
- Does the EU AI Act apply to US companies?
- It can. The Act has extraterritorial reach where the output of an AI system is used in the EU. Separately, EU and US buyers are increasingly adding EU AI Act questions to their vendor security reviews regardless of where you are based.
- What happens on August 2, 2026?
- On that date the obligations for high-risk AI systems become enforceable. If you deploy a high-risk system, you may need oversight, logging, and documentation in place. Confirm specifics against the regulation text with qualified counsel.
- Is this assessment legal advice?
- No. The result is a suggested, auditable classification to help you scope your next steps. Review it with qualified counsel before relying on it.
- Is it free, and do I need to sign up?
- The assessment is free and runs in your browser. You enter an email to receive your result and readiness plan; no account or card is required to see it.
