Disclaimer
At Astrato Analytics, we are committed to ensuring that our AI-powered features align with the latest regulatory frameworks, including the EU AI Act. While we serve a diverse range of customers, including those in healthcare, the majority of our AI applications fall into the minimal or limited risk categories, ensuring compliance without imposing significant regulatory burdens.
1. Minimal Risk AI Systems
Most of our AI-powered features, such as insight generation, field name suggestions, and measure generation, are designed to assist users in data analysis and reporting. These systems do not make autonomous decisions or significantly impact individuals, placing them in the minimal risk category under the EU AI Act.
For these features, no additional compliance requirements apply, as they pose no significant risk to users or society.
2. Limited Risk AI Systems
For our systems, we ensure transparency by clearly informing users when they are interacting with AI and providing explanations of how the AI works.
This aligns with the EU AI Act's requirements for limited risk systems, ensuring users are aware of AI involvement without imposing heavy compliance obligations.
3. High Risk Considerations (Healthcare Customers)
For customers in healthcare or other high-risk sectors, we take additional precautions to ensure compliance with the EU AI Act. While Astrato itself does not directly provide high-risk AI systems, we support our customers in meeting their regulatory obligations by:
Ensuring data governance and quality standards are maintained.
Providing tools for transparency and explainability in AI-driven insights.
Enabling human oversight to validate AI-generated outputs.
Our platform is designed to empower users in high-risk sectors to comply with the EU AI Act while leveraging AI responsibly.
4. No Unacceptable Risk AI Systems
Astrato Analytics does not develop or deploy AI systems that fall into the unacceptable risk category (e.g., social scoring or manipulative AI). Our focus is on providing tools that enhance productivity and decision-making without compromising ethical or regulatory standards.
Key Takeaways for Stakeholders:
Low Regulatory Burden: The majority of Astrato's AI features are minimal or limited risk, requiring no additional compliance measures beyond transparency and user awareness.
Support for High-Risk Sectors: For healthcare customers, we provide the tools and framework to ensure compliance with the EU AI Act's high-risk requirements.
Commitment to Ethical AI: We prioritize transparency, explainability, and user control in all our AI-powered features, ensuring they are both effective and compliant.
By focusing on minimal and limited risk AI systems, Astrato ensures that our customers can leverage the power of AI without facing significant regulatory challenges. For high-risk use cases, we provide the necessary support to ensure compliance while maintaining the highest standards of data privacy and security.
