Exposure path

Strategic answer

US enterprises need an EU-facing AI inventory before implementation work.

US enterprises often have AI exposure across products, vendors, internal deployments and customer workflows. EU AI Act readiness starts by mapping which systems touch EU users, EU operations, EU customers or EU-facing outputs.

Start with the EU AI Act Diagnostic, turn findings into an implementation plan, and see how the diagnostic works as a reference app on M13.

Exposure focus

What US enterprises should map

  • AI systems used in products, operations, vendors and business units.
  • EU users, customers, employees, partners or output recipients.
  • Provider, deployer, importer, distributor or integration role signals.
  • Documentation, oversight, monitoring and ownership gaps.
