AI Risk Classification (EU AI Act)
Mapping each AI system to the EU AI Act risk tiers: unacceptable, high, limited, minimal.
What is AI Risk Classification (EU AI Act)?
The EU AI Act assigns obligations based on risk tier. High-risk systems trigger conformity assessments, technical documentation, and post-market monitoring; limited-risk systems trigger transparency duties; some uses are outright prohibited. See AI Risk Assessment & Classification for the workflow VDF AI uses to map this systematically.
