EU AI Compliance Institute or EURO AI Register? A generated document pack vs a free AI inventory
Partner programme opening soon: join the free waitlist. Planned terms are 50% of each referred sale (75% once you have 5+ paying customers), single level, paid through Gumroad only from revenue received.
Short answer: EU AI Compliance Institute is an online service for SMEs: you answer an assessment of under 10 minutes about your business, the AI tools you use and the staff who use them, and it generates a document pack from a fixed rule set: AI usage policy, AI tools register with risk classification, staff literacy records, a role-based training matrix, a scope and obligations guide and, where flagged, a high-risk assessment report, compiled into one timestamped PDF with a status dashboard and regulatory update alerts. Its site (checked 27 Oct 2026) shows €49 a month billed monthly or €29 a month billed yearly (€350 a year) for up to 100 staff, prices excluding VAT; larger firms contact it. EURO AI Register runs in your browser with no account and is free for up to 10 AI systems: an AI inventory, screening questions with article references, duties by role with dates, an evidence log and a printable Article 4 literacy record. Membership is $19 a month or $190 a year. If you want a finished, staff-level document pack and policy generated for you, EU AI Compliance Institute does more. If you first want a free list of your AI tools and a literacy record, start with EURO AI Register.
The pain this page is about
“I run a 20-person accounting office. Before I subscribe to anything, I want to see which AI tools we use and who uses them, and have a literacy record I can print.” A document service writes the whole pack for you. A free register gets the list done first.
Why this matters now (official dates)
- Article 4 AI literacy has applied since 2 February 2025 to providers and deployers, whatever the risk level. As replaced by Regulation (EU) 2026/1744, it asks organisations to take measures to support the AI literacy of their staff; it does not require them to guarantee a specific level for any individual. The European Commission's Q&A says there is no need for a certificate: an internal record of trainings or guidance is enough, and national authorities supervise and enforce from August 2026 (Commission AI literacy Q&A).
- Article 50 transparency duties (for example, telling people they are talking to a chatbot) apply from 2 August 2026 (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689).
- High-risk rules were moved by the Digital Omnibus on AI, Regulation (EU) 2026/1744: Annex III uses (such as recruitment and credit scoring) from 2 December 2027, and AI in regulated products (Annex I) from 2 August 2028.

Not legal advice. EURO AI Register and the Readiness Kit are record-keeping aids, not proof of compliance, not an audit and not a conformity assessment; the AI Act has no organisation-wide seal a tool can give you. If a system may be banned or high-risk, have a qualified lawyer review it. Unadhi is not affiliated with the EU or any EU authority.
