EU AI Act compliance, made clear.
I help organisations understand, assess, and meet their obligations under the EU AI Act - from initial pre-assessment through to conformity assessment preparation and team training.

Regulation
EU AI Act
How I can help
Practical, expert-led compliance services designed for organisations building, deploying, or procuring AI systems in the EU.
Pre-Assessment Advisory EU AI Act
Not sure where your AI system falls under the regulation? I conduct a structured pre-assessment to determine your system's risk classification, identify applicable obligations, and help to build a roadmap to compliance.
- AI system risk classification
- Applicable obligations summary
- Compliance gap overview
- Actionable next-step roadmap
Conformity Assessment Support
For high-risk AI systems, providers must be able to demonstrate conformity with the EU AI Act. I help teams prepare the required evidence package, including technical documentation, risk management, QMS, logging and monitoring.
- Technical documentation review (Annex IV)
- High-risk AI systems requirements
- Transparency obligations
- Harmonised standards guidance
EU AI Act Training for legal and tech teams
Article 4 requires providers and deployers to ensure AI literacy across relevant staff. I deliver customized training programmes for executives and technical team deep-dives
- Executive awareness sessions
- Compliance workshops and bootcamps
- Requirements walkthroughs
- Customised for your industry
I am Maria Rudneva
I am an independent EU AI Act compliance specialist and Certified AI Compliance Officer (CAICO), working at the intersection of Artificial Intelligence, digital transformation and AI governance.
I also work with ExplorAI, a Netherlands-based conformity assessment body in formation for high-risk AI systems under the EU AI Act, where I act as a compliance assessor.
I specialise in the practical application of the EU AI Act, with focus on AI system classification, intended purpose, provider and deployer responsibilities, and AI Act obligations.
I founded Article6 to give organisations direct access to expert, practical EU AI Act support and to translate regulatory requirements into real-world AI system decisions and actionable compliance steps.

AI literacy under Article 4: what counts as 'sufficient'?
Article 4 requires providers and deployers to ensure their staff have adequate AI literacy. But the regulation is deliberately vague. This post breaks down what a defensible programme looks like.
The pre-assessment question every company should ask first
Before you commission a full conformity assessment, there is one foundational question that shapes everything else: is your AI system in scope at all?
Let's talk compliance
Whether you need a quick classification check or support preparing for conformity assessment, I am happy to start with a no-obligation call to understand your situation.
