AI Governance Built forDeployers, Not Consultants
The EU AI Act's high-risk system obligations take effect on August 2, 2026. Starkguard gives deployers a self-service path to compliance — guided workflows, audit-ready evidence, and defensible documentation without hiring external advisors.
Deployers Deserve Better Than Spreadsheets
Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 created a new category of obligation: the AI deployer. Organizations that use AI systems — not just those that build them — now face classification requirements, incident reporting duties, and human oversight mandates. Most don't have a dedicated governance team to handle this.
Starkguard was built for that gap. We translate Articles 14, 26, and 73 of the EU AI Act into guided workflows that a DPO, General Counsel, or compliance lead can operate without external help. The output isn't a report that sits in a drawer — it's attestation documents, evidence packages, and audit trails that hold up under scrutiny.
Every Article 26 Obligation, Covered
Purpose-built features for each deployer requirement in the EU AI Act
Principles, Not Buzzwords
What drives the product decisions behind Starkguard
Built Alongside the Regulation
We've tracked the EU AI Act since its draft stages and built features in lockstep with each enforcement milestone
Foundation
Starkguard was founded to solve a specific problem: deployers of high-risk AI systems had no self-service path to EU AI Act compliance.
Platform Launch
Shipped NIST AI RMF and EU AI Act assessment workflows. Launched the Knowledge Engine with 847 elements across 7 frameworks.
Deployer Toolkit
Added the full Article 26 compliance stack: incident logging (Art. 73), human oversight evidence (Art. 14), compliance attestation, evidence packages, and document vault.
Enforcement Ready
Platform covers all deployer obligations ahead of the August 2, 2026 high-risk system deadline. ISO 42001 certification support, KSA AI Governance (SDAIA + PDPL), and UAE AI Ethics frameworks launched for GCC market coverage.
Regulatory Expertise Meets Engineering
Our team combines regulatory compliance experience with production-grade software engineering. We've studied the EU AI Act article by article and built features that map directly to deployer obligations — because generic "governance platforms" don't cut it when a regulator asks for your Article 14 evidence.
August 2, 2026 Is Closer Than You Think
