AI Compliance and Certification Toolkit for Faster Market Entry and Regulatory Safety

digitalPilotedTRL 6

Imagine trying to get a safety sticker for a new car, but the rules are written in a language you don't speak. This project creates a translation guide and a digital checklist to help AI companies prove their tech is fair and safe. It's like a pre-inspection service that ensures your AI doesn't accidentally discriminate or leak private secrets before the official auditors arrive.

The business problem

What needed solving

AI companies struggle to translate complex European regulations into technical requirements, leading to high compliance costs and delayed market entry. There is also a lack of standardized tools to prove an AI is unbiased, secure, and energy-efficient.

The solution

What was built

A certification platform, a directory of certification entities, tools for measuring dataset bias, and energy-reduction techniques for AI systems.
