Target Audience

For whom is an AI Audit crucial?

Perfect for:

  • Companies already utilizing ChatGPT & Co. (even unofficially).
  • Executives looking to proactively minimize personal liability risks.
  • Organizations requiring safe guidelines for their employees.

Not for:

  • Startups training their own foundational High-Risk Base Models.
  • Companies strictly banning any use of AI.
  • Pure legal counseling (we are IT strategists, not lawyers).

Application Areas

Where an AI Audit offers maximum leverage

Shadow IT Identification

We find unregulated tools like DeepL or ChatGPT and establish secure alternatives (e.g. Azure OpenAI).

Risk Mitigation

GDPR & Customer Data

We ensure your LLMs do not leak sensitive data into public training sets of global corporations.

Data Protection

Vendor Management

We screen IT third-party vendors for compliance with the AI Act's transparency obligations.

Third-Party Risk

Your Benefits

What specifically changes

Liability Protection

You document risks and avoid severe GDPR or EU AI Act fines.

Team Clarity

Through corporate policy, employees know precisely which tools are permitted.

Customer Trust

A transparent AI strategy is a prime competitive advantage during B2B audits.

Room for Innovation

With installed legal guardrails, the team can experiment without fear.

Approach

How the audit works

01

Status-Quo Analysis

Which AI systems are productively or unofficially used? How do the data flows look currently?

02

Risk Classification

Every app is classified according to the EU AI Act. High-risk systems receive strict control protocols.

03

Corporate Guidelines

We draft an AI policy in coordination with your DPO and implement private Enterprise environments.

The Backend

Technical Safeguards

Data Loss Prevention (DLP)

Sensitive material (credit cards, IDs) is blocked or masked by scanners before it ever reaches an AI.

Private AI Enclaves

The safest route: Hosting the AI infrastructure in fully sealed cloud instances (Azure Frankfurt) rather than public endpoints.

Frequently Asked Questions

EU AI Act — clearly answered

Who does the EU AI Act apply to?

Every company offering AI or using it intensively in core processes within the EU – regardless of employee count.

Isn't GDPR enough?

No. GDPR regulates personal data. The AI Act forces additional transparency ("Human Oversight") and risk documentation.

How dangerous is ChatGPT Free?

Extremely dangerous for companies: OpenAI trains on inputs. Confidential company secrets could become globally accessible.
