Question 1

What is the EU AI Act?

Accepted Answer

The EU AI Act (Regulation 2024/1689) is the first comprehensive law governing artificial intelligence. It classifies AI systems by risk level and sets obligations — including registration, transparency, and documentation — that apply from 2026 onward, with high-risk rules phasing in through 2027.

Question 2

Does this apply to recruitment agencies?

Accepted Answer

Yes. AI used to screen, rank, or evaluate candidates is listed in Annex III as high-risk. Recruitment agencies using these systems are generally deployers and must address the duties in Article 26, including use controls, human oversight, monitoring, logs, and notices. Article 50 applies separately where a person interacts directly with an AI system.

Question 3

Is Conformant legal advice?

Accepted Answer

No. Compliance and documentation software — not legal advice. It helps you inventory, classify, and document your AI systems against the Act's requirements.

Question 4

What documents do I get?

Accepted Answer

Your compliance pack includes an AI system register, transparency notices for affected candidates, and a governance report with per-system obligation checklists — three audit-ready PDFs. In-app checklists are available before export.

Question 5

What is the audit log?

Accepted Answer

Organization admins can review an immutable trail of workspace activity — who changed inventory, classifications, obligations, deadlines, documents, and team settings. It complements your exported PDFs and is separate from decision logs (hiring AI event trails) and the 6-month document export history.

Question 6

What is the Compliance Advisor?

Accepted Answer

An in-app assistant specialized for EU AI Act compliance questions relevant to recruitment agencies. It uses your live workspace — systems, risk tiers, open obligations, and deadlines — so answers reflect your agency, not generic chat. Ask about gaps, priorities, Annex III hiring AI, transparency duties, and next steps. It is practical guidance, not legal advice.

Question 7

Can we manage multiple offices?

Accepted Answer

Yes, on the Enterprise plan. HQ can link sibling office workspaces into an organization group. Each office keeps its own billing, inventory, and team; HQ admins get a read-only rollup of readiness across offices. Manage invites and membership in Settings.

Question 8

Do you support single sign-on (SSO)?

Accepted Answer

Yes, on the Enterprise plan. Workspace admins can request SSO for providers such as Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, and Google Workspace from Settings → Team. We configure it for your organization; email sign-in remains available as a fallback unless your IdP policy requires otherwise.

Question 9

Can I add new AI tools later?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Add a tool anytime, import from catalog or CSV, then classify and Conformant updates your register and obligations automatically.

Question 10

Is my data stored in the EU?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All Conformant plans include EU-hosted infrastructure. Your data never leaves European jurisdiction.
