Safa Studios / AI Governance & Compliance

The EU AI Act already started. Don't let it catch you unprepared.

Article 50's transparency obligations have applied since 2 August 2026: if your company runs a chatbot, generates AI content, or lets an agent reply on your behalf, this already touches you. We don't sell "compliance" as an abstract promise. We deliver an inventory, a risk gap review, and a plan your own team can run, in 10 business days.

Four dates, one sequential urgency.

The Digital Omnibus pushed Annex III high-risk obligations to December 2027. It moved the deadline, not the work. Article 50 transparency was not moved: it is already in force.

2 AUGUST 2026 · IN FORCE

Transparency

Chatbot disclosure, AI-content labeling, deepfake marking. Applies to almost any company with automated customer-facing communication or AI-generated content.

2 DECEMBER 2026

Legacy systems

Systems placed on the market before August 2026 must meet the Article 50(2) marking and detection requirement.

2 DECEMBER 2027

High-risk

Annex III: HR, education, credit, essential services, and similar sensitive decision workflows. Delayed, not cancelled.

2 AUGUST 2028

Embedded high-risk

High-risk AI embedded in regulated products under Annex I, the furthest date on the calendar.

Five fixed-scope offers, not an open-ended project.

Every offer has scope, price, and duration fixed in advance. Nothing gets billed as a surprise: scope changes are quoted separately, never absorbed silently.

THE BOUNDARY, ON EVERY OFFER

This is a practical readiness and implementation engagement. It does not replace advice from your own legal counsel, a formal conformity assessment, or certification. We work alongside your counsel, never in its place, and never promise a guaranteed compliance outcome.

Two profiles almost nobody is serving yet.

FAMILY OFFICES

The AI Act is the new urgency on a problem they already had

86% of family offices are already piloting or using AI, but only 40% have a formal governance framework (KPMG Global Family Business Survey 2026). If your entity has EU presence or EU investments, an AI-driven investment-scoring tool can trigger Annex III high-risk status, with fines up to EUR 15M or 3% of global turnover. Switzerland is where this is sharpest: 91 single-family offices and 187 multi-family offices, the largest MFO sector relative to size in the world.

VENTURE CAPITAL FIRMS

Dual exposure: your own tools, and your portfolio

A fund needs governance for its own sourcing and due-diligence tools, but its portfolio companies are often AI Act providers, not just deployers, a heavier obligation. We offer a portfolio-wide readiness program: one relationship, many companies covered, positioned the same way funds already offer shared legal or recruiting services.
