⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

🇪🇺 This Isn't Optional. This Is Law.

Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 — the EU AI Act — became enforceable on August 1, 2024.
Companies have until August 2, 2026 to ensure high-risk AI systems comply.

📅 August 2, 2026

High-risk AI systems must comply with Articles 9-15 (risk management, data governance, logging, transparency, human oversight, security).

💰 Up to €35M or 7%

Penalties can reach €35 million OR 7% of global annual revenue (whichever is higher) for non-compliance.

🌍 Any EU Customer = In Scope

If your AI systems serve EU customers, you're subject to the AI Act — regardless of where your company is headquartered.

Article 99 — Penalties: "Non-compliance with the prohibition of the artificial intelligence practices referred to in Article 5 shall be subject to administrative fines of up to EUR 35 000 000 or, if the offender is an undertaking, up to 7 % of its total worldwide annual turnover for the preceding financial year, whichever is higher."

Together = Complete Compliance

Your governance platform says "we promise to be compliant."
The Pitstop says "here's the technical proof."

Why You Need Both: Governance platforms are excellent at documentation, workflows, and policy management. But they can't test if your AI agent actually follows those policies. That's where we come in — we're the technical validation layer that proves your controls work.

What We Are (and What We're Not)

Honest positioning — we do one thing exceptionally well.

✓ We ARE:

  • Agent-specific security scanning — 27 checks purpose-built for AI agents (not generic AI systems)
  • Technical evidence for audits — Real, measurable security data you can show regulators
  • Runtime risk assessment — Continuous monitoring of agent behavior in production
  • EU AI Act Article mapping — Direct citations to Articles 9-15 technical requirements
  • Complement to compliance platforms — We integrate with OneTrust, SECJUR, Credo AI

✗ We're NOT:

  • Legal advice — We provide technical data, not regulatory interpretation. Consult legal counsel.
  • Full documentation generation — We don't replace your governance platform's policy templates
  • A conformity assessment body — We're a technical scanning tool, not a certification authority
  • A complete compliance solution — Compliance requires governance + technical security + legal strategy
  • Generic AI security — We're laser-focused on AI agents (not ML models, chatbots, or general AI)
The Bottom Line: If your compliance platform is the "promise," we're the "proof." If governance platforms are the steering wheel, we're the speedometer and airbags. You need both to be compliant.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does The Pitstop work with my existing compliance platform?

We complement governance platforms like OneTrust, SECJUR, and Credo AI by providing the technical security evidence they lack. Your compliance platform documents your policies and processes — we prove those controls actually work in your AI agents. Export our reports as technical appendices to your compliance documentation, or integrate via API for automated evidence collection.

Does this apply to my company?

If you deploy AI systems (including AI agents) that serve EU customers and are classified as "high-risk" under Article 6 of the EU AI Act, yes. High-risk typically includes AI that makes autonomous decisions affecting employment, essential services, fundamental rights, or processes sensitive data. Most production AI agents with exec permissions, file access, or data handling fall into this category.

What happens if I'm not compliant by August 2, 2026?

Non-compliance can result in fines up to €35 million or 7% of global annual revenue (whichever is higher), market bans (your AI systems can be ordered offline), and reputational damage from public disclosure. Regulators can also request technical audit logs — if you don't have them, that's automatic non-compliance.

Do you provide legal advice or compliance certification?

No. We're a technical security scanning tool. We provide measurable technical evidence for Articles 9-15 requirements, but we are not a law firm, conformity assessment body, or full compliance solution. You should consult qualified legal counsel for regulatory interpretation and compliance strategy. Think of us as "the technical engine" under your compliance platform's hood.

Is the free scan enough for compliance?

The free scan identifies technical security gaps and shows where you stand. For full compliance, you'll need: (1) Governance platform (policy documentation), (2) Our technical evidence (security scanning), (3) Legal counsel (regulatory strategy), (4) LLM provider certificates (Article 10), (5) HITL approval workflows (Article 14). We recommend the $499 Technical Evidence Report for audit-ready documentation.

What's the difference between the scan and the technical evidence report?

Free Scan: Shows your security score and technical gaps across 27 checks. Technical Evidence Report ($499): Adds article-by-article technical citations, remediation priority matrix, technical appendix format for compliance platforms, and audit-ready PDF. The report is what you attach to your governance platform's compliance package and show regulators.
