What is KlarvoEngine?

KlarvoEngine is Klarvo's regulatory intelligence engine. It analyses your AI system through a 3-pass classification pipeline and produces an article-cited compliance memo with obligations, deadlines, and recommended controls — in under 60 seconds.

What is the EU AI Act?

The EU AI Act (Regulation 2024/1689) is the world's first comprehensive AI regulation. It classifies AI systems by risk level and imposes obligations on providers and deployers of AI systems operating in the EU.

Any organisation that provides or deploys AI systems affecting people in the EU — regardless of where the organisation is based. This includes websites with AI chatbots, companies using AI analytics, and businesses integrating AI models into their products.

Prohibited AI practices have been enforceable since February 2025. GPAI model obligations since August 2025. Article 50 transparency and most remaining obligations apply from August 2, 2026.

What are the penalties?

Up to €35 million or 7% of global turnover for prohibited practices. Up to €15 million or 3% for transparency and other violations. For SMEs, the penalty is whichever amount is lower.

The EU AI Act is 458 pages. You don't have time to read them.

Consultants charge €500/hr

And most haven't read the final text. You're paying for someone to learn on your time.

Checklists miss the nuance

Is your chatbot limited-risk or high-risk? It depends on 6 factors that a checklist can't capture.

Generic AI tools don't understand regulation

A general-purpose chatbot can't classify your system with article-level precision. KlarvoEngine can.

Three passes. One definitive answer.

KlarvoEngine doesn't guess. It analyses your system through three distinct stages — each building on the last.

PASS 01

Understand

You describe your AI system in 4 fields: name, description, vendor, and department. KlarvoEngine extracts everything the regulation cares about:

What the system does (core function, output types)
Who it affects (employees, customers, public, candidates)
Where it's deployed (EU, UK, US, internal/external)
How humans are involved (human-in-the-loop, on-the-loop, out-of-the-loop)
Whether it impacts the workplace, is customer-facing, processes sensitive data

PASS 02

Classify

Maps your system against the full EU AI Act legal text:

Risk level: Prohibited, High-Risk, Limited, or Minimal
Applicable articles with specific sub-paragraph citations
Annex III domain matching (if high-risk)
GPAI model provider status check
Transparency obligations (Article 50 sub-articles)
Industry-specific regulatory overlap (MDR, MiFID, DORA, etc.)

PASS 03

Verify

Cross-references the classification against known edge cases:

Checks against 70+ pre-loaded classification scenarios
Identifies common misclassification patterns
Verifies consistency between risk level and obligations
Produces confidence score and flags ambiguities
Generates the final classification memo with article citations

From 4 fields to full compliance roadmap.

Every KlarvoEngine classification produces:

Classification Memo

2-3 page article-cited analysis with risk level, applicable articles, and reasoning. Export as PDF.

Auto-Generated Obligations

6-15 specific obligations with deadlines, owners, and priority levels. Based on your exact classification.

Smart Controls

Only the controls that apply to YOUR system. 8-30 out of 40, not a generic checklist of everything.

Policy Drafts

AI Acceptable Use, Worker Notification, and Training Curriculum policies — pre-written from your classification data.

Disclosure Text

Article 50-compliant transparency text ready to deploy on your website or in your product.

FRIA Pre-Fill

If your system is high-risk, the Fundamental Rights Impact Assessment wizard starts pre-filled — not from scratch.

Built on the law. Updated when it changes.

KlarvoEngine's regulatory knowledge base isn't a static document. It's a living, structured encoding of the EU AI Act and all official guidance.
