Financial services & AML
Alert triage, SAR maker-checker, sanctions screening: governed under DORA and the AMLR.
Financial servicesRuntime control plane
EU AI Act compliance software, built for the decisions you have to prove
KLA governs the decision itself: enforcing policy and human oversight on high-risk AI actions at execution time, and sealing evidence an auditor can verify independently. It is the runtime layer that sits alongside your GRC or AI governance system of record.
Connect your system of record to runtime controls
AI compliance software supports different parts of the governance process. A system of record organizes your program; KLA applies controls to agent execution.
System of record (you likely have one)
A GRC platform (Vanta, Drata) if AI sits inside a broader program, or an enterprise AI governance platform (OneTrust, Credo AI) for portfolio inventory, classification and impact assessments.
Runtime control plane (this is KLA)
Enforces policy and human approval on high-stakes AI actions as they run, and captures verifiable evidence. This is where Article 14 oversight and Article 12 record-keeping are actually satisfied at execution time.

One runtime layer for GDPR and the EU AI Act
The two regimes overlap on records, oversight and accountability. KLA produces the case-level execution evidence both expect for automated, high-stakes decisions.
Lawful, documented decisions
- GDPR
- Art. 5–6 lawfulness; Art. 22 automated decisions
- EU AI Act
- Art. 9 risk management
- How KLA helps at runtime
- Policy-as-code checkpoints decide allow / warn / require approval / block before an action runs
Human oversight
- GDPR
- Art. 22 right to human intervention
- EU AI Act
- Art. 14 human oversight
- How KLA helps at runtime
- Decision Desk routes high-stakes actions to a named reviewer with documented approve / override
Records & traceability
- GDPR
- Art. 30 records of processing
- EU AI Act
- Art. 12 record-keeping
- How KLA helps at runtime
- Every decision sealed at execution time into a tamper-evident execution-lineage record
Provable evidence on demand
- GDPR
- Art. 5(2) accountability
- EU AI Act
- Art. 11 + Annex IV technical documentation
- How KLA helps at runtime
- Evidence Room exports an independently verifiable pack with manifest and checksums
Built for regulated decisions
KLA is strongest where an AI agent takes an action you must defend to a regulator.
Frequently asked questions
What is EU AI Act compliance software?
It is the tooling that helps you meet the EU AI Act’s obligations for high-risk AI: risk management, human oversight, record-keeping, and technical documentation. In practice it spans four categories: GRC automation, enterprise AI governance, LLM observability, and runtime control planes. Most regulated teams run two: a system of record plus a runtime layer that enforces and proves what high-risk AI actually does.
Does KLA replace my GRC or AI governance platform?
No. KLA is the runtime control plane that sits alongside Vanta, OneTrust, Credo AI and similar: they manage the program and the inventory; KLA governs the decision itself with policy enforcement, human approvals, and tamper-evident evidence for your highest-risk Processes.
Does it cover both GDPR and the EU AI Act?
The two overlap on records, transparency, and oversight. KLA produces the case-level execution evidence both regimes expect for automated, high-stakes decisions, so the same runtime controls and evidence pack serve GDPR accountability and EU AI Act Articles 12, 14, and Annex IV.
When do EU AI Act obligations apply?
Under the Digital Omnibus on AI, adopted 29 June 2026, stand-alone high-risk obligations (Annex III) apply from 2 December 2027 and embedded high-risk (Annex I) from 2 August 2028. Deployer transparency under Article 50 stays at 2 August 2026. The deferral is runway to put governed execution into real Processes now.
Govern AI at execution time
For your highest-risk Processes, the proof of what happened is generated at runtime, as each governed action commits.
