The EU AI Act: A Reference Hub for Operators

This hub collects every analysis, checklist, and tool this publication has produced on Regulation (EU) 2024/1689. The operator provisions enter application on 2 August 2026. The articles below are organised by the obligation they address: the Article 26 operator duties, the Article 27 FRIA requirement, the Article 14 human oversight standard, the enforcement architecture, and the documentation floor an operator must hold on file before that date.

Article 26

The Operator Provisions

Article 26 sets out the ongoing duties of any organisation deploying a high-risk AI system in the European Union from 2 August 2026. These are the foundational articles.

Article 27

The Fundamental Rights Impact Assessment

Article 27 requires public bodies and deployers of creditworthiness or insurance risk systems to complete a FRIA before first deployment. These two articles cover the requirement in full.

Article 14

Human Oversight

Article 14 requires providers to build oversight capabilities into high-risk AI systems and deployers to staff and document them. The articles below address both sides of that obligation.

Enforcement

Enforcement and Penalties

Articles 99 and 101 set out the penalty tiers. The AI Office and national market surveillance authorities will conduct enforcement inquiries from August 2026. These articles map the architecture.
