Introduction
Welcome to the Compliance Scan by SimplyComplai
The European AI Act sets out extensive requirements for organisations that develop, use, or deploy AI. This scan helps you quickly understand which obligations may apply to you.
During the scan, you’ll find out:
- Which role(s) under the AI Act apply to you (such as manufacturer, provider, deployer, or importer);
- Which rules are associated with those roles.
This gives you an initial overview of the legal position of your AI tool under the legislation and what obligations apply to you as a result. The scan does not provide direct action points; it is a first step toward understanding your compliance needs.
Because this scan is based on legislation, some questions or terms may feel a bit legal. We've done our best to translate the legal requirements into clear, accessible language so that you, as an AI practitioner, can easily see what’s relevant for your situation.
Want to go a step further? Soon, we’ll launch our Gap analysis: a more in-depth tool that shows you exactly what you already comply with and what still needs to be addressed to fully meet AI Act requirements. This feature is currently in development and will be available soon.
Prefer personal guidance? You can also book a session with a personal advisor, who will provide practical, tailored advice to help bring your AI solution into compliance with the AI Act.

Let's get started
Know your AI role
Before you can assess whether your AI application complies with the law, it’s important to first understand how you’re using AI. The European AI Act sets clear rules for different types of users and applications.
In the next few questions, select the option that best describes your situation. By answering these, you’ll identify what kind of AI provider or user you are, an important first step in tailoring the remainder of the scan to your specific context.

Deployer
You will now proceed with this form as a Deployer
A deployer is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other entity who uses an AI system under their own responsibility, other than for purely personal and non-professional purposes.
The next few questions are designed to determine which responsibilities are relevant to your role as a deployer, and to assess the risk profile of your AI system.
Distributor
You will now proceed with this form as a Distributor
A distributor is a natural or legal person who makes an AI system available on the EU market without placing it on the market under their own name or trademark and without being responsible for its development or production.
The next few questions are designed to determine which responsibilities are relevant to your role as a distributor, and to assess the risk profile of your AI system.
Importer
You will now proceed with this form as an Importer
An importer is a natural or legal person established in the EU who places on the market an AI system that carries the name or trademark of a person established outside the EU.
The next few questions are designed to determine which responsibilities are relevant to your role as an importer, and to assess the risk profile of your AI system.
Manufacturer
You will now proceed with this form as a Manufacturer
A manufacturer is a natural or legal person who develops or has an AI system developed, and places it on the EU market or puts it into service under their own name or trademark.
The next few questions are designed to determine which responsibilities are relevant to your role as a manufacturer, and to assess the risk profile of your AI system.

Authorised Representative
You will now proceed with this form as an Authorised Representative
An authorised representative is a natural or legal person established in the EU who has been formally authorised by a provider established outside the EU to carry out certain obligations under the AI Act on their behalf.
The authorized representative has a specific set of responsibilities, meaning there are no further questions in the Compliance Scan. These responsibilities will be assessed in the Gap Survey that is relevant to you.
Provider
You will now proceed with this form as a Provider
A provider is a natural or legal person who develops an AI system, or has it developed, with the intention of placing it on the EU market or using it under their own name or trademark, whether for payment or not.
The next few questions are designed to determine which responsibilities are relevant to your role as a provider, and to assess the risk profile of your AI system.
Provider (Dual Role)
You will now proceed with this form as a Provider-Deployer with a dual role
You use an AI system under your own authority, which makes you a deployer. Because you have also put your own name or trademark on the system, changed its intended purpose, or substantially modified it, you take on the obligations of a provider in addition to those of a deployer.
A provider is a natural or legal person who develops an AI system, or has it developed, with the intention of placing it on the EU market or using it under their own name or trademark, whether for payment or not.
The next few questions are designed to determine which responsibilities are relevant to your dual role, and to assess the risk profile of your AI system. Because the provider obligations are the more extensive of the two, the remainder of this scan treats you primarily as a provider.

An AI system is not considered to pose a significant risk if it meets one or more of the following conditions:
- It is designed to carry out a limited procedural task.
- It is intended to improve the outcome of a human activity that has already been completed.
- It is designed to identify decision making patterns or deviations from previous decision making patterns, without replacing or influencing the completed human assessment, and is subject to appropriate human review.
- It is intended to perform a preparatory task for an assessment related to one of the use cases listed in Annex III, Section A from the EU AI Act.
If your AI system satisfies any of these conditions, select "No". If none of these conditions apply, select "Yes".
Important: An AI system that performs profiling of natural persons is always considered high risk. If this applies to your system, select "Yes".
