EU AI Act roadmap to August 2026: your checklist

20 days left — here's how to use them.

High-risk AI systems must be compliant by 2 August 2026. The path there is plannable. These six steps take you from inventory to demonstrable conformity — in the right order.

  1. 1. Inventory

    List every AI system in the company — built and bought. Nothing can be classified without a complete inventory.

  2. 2. Classification

    Assign each system a risk class. The free risk check and the Annex III guide help here.

  3. 3. Gap analysis

    Compare each high-risk system against the obligations (Art. 8–27) and document the gaps. This is exactly what KomplAI automates — every finding with a citation.

  4. 4. Documentation & QMS

    Produce the technical documentation (Annex IV), set up logging (Art. 12) and a quality management system (Art. 17).

  5. 5. GDPR & DORA

    If the system processes personal data, check the DPIA (Art. 35 GDPR) and automated decisions (Art. 22). Financial entities add DORA.

  6. 6. Ongoing monitoring

    Conformity is not a one-off: post-market monitoring, incident reporting and regular re-checks when things change.

Frequently asked questions

Where should I start?
With inventory and classification. Only once you know which systems are high-risk does the effort for documentation and QMS pay off in the right place.
How long does implementation take?
It depends on the number and complexity of systems. Classification and gap analysis take days; documentation, QMS and conformity assessment take weeks to months — which is why you should start now.
How does KomplAI actually help?
KomplAI takes over classification and gap analysis: you upload documents and source code, KomplAI checks them against the relevant rules and returns a cited report with an action plan — the basis for step 4.
Do I also need legal advice?
For binding assessments and tricky edge cases: yes. KomplAI provides the cited, traceable basis — and offers an expert legal review on request.
