# EU AI Act Applicability & Risk Classification Check

> EU AI Act Applicability & Risk Classification Check is a paid API for AI agents from compliancepulse.theaslangroupllc.com, paid per call via x402, $0.25/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-13).

Classifies an AI system under the EU AI Act (prohibited/high-risk/transparency/minimal/GPAI), returns role-specific obligations and penalties, and tracks the current August 2026 vs December 2027 deadline status.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability eu-ai-act-applicability-risk-classification-check-980b3970
```

Example prompt: We deploy a facial recognition system for employee access control at EU offices — can you classify our risk level under the EU AI Act, tell us what obligations we have as a deployer, what penalties we face if we're non-compliant, and confirm whether the August 2026 high-risk deadline still applies or if the Digital Omnibus deferral to December 2027 is official?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a deterministic, article-cited EU AI Act classification for a specific AI system and company role, particularly when you need to distinguish between the August 2026 and December 2027 compliance deadlines or assess GPAI obligations. Prefer this over generic legal research tools when you need structured, machine-readable compliance output rather than a narrative legal opinion.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or ambiguous AI system description may result in indeterminate classification
- Role not specified (provider vs deployer) leads to generic obligations output
- Regulatory deadline status may lag if Official Journal publication is very recent
- Use case outside EU reach may return minimal-risk classification by default
- Highly novel AI applications not covered by existing Annex III categories may be unclassifiable

## How this service works

EU AI Act applicability check: risk classification (prohibited / Annex III high-risk / transparency / minimal + GPAI), obligations for your role (provider/deployer/importer/distributor), penalties, and the CURRENT state of the August 2026 high-risk deadline vs the Digital Omnibus deferral to December 2027 (tracked to Official Journal status). Deterministic classification with cited articles; applies to any company whose AI reaches people in the EU.

## Output

Returns a deterministic EU AI Act risk classification (prohibited / Annex III high-risk / transparency obligation / minimal risk / GPAI), role-specific obligations for the caller's position in the supply chain (provider, deployer, importer, or distributor), applicable penalty exposure, and a tracked status of whether the August 2026 high-risk compliance deadline has been officially deferred to December 2027 by the Digital Omnibus regulation — all with citations to specific EU AI Act articles.
