Read the blog →The EU AI Act is real, and its obligations for high-risk systems (the Annex III categories) are phasing in through 2026. If you build or deploy AI that touches EU users, we help you figure out whether you’re in scope, what conformity-assessment work applies, and how to get ready without boiling the ocean.
You walk away knowing exactly whether the EU AI Act applies to you, which obligations bite, and a concrete plan to close the gaps, instead of guessing or ignoring a regulation that is already phasing in.
Yes. It is a real EU regulation with obligations phasing in over time. Requirements for high-risk (Annex III) systems are among those phasing in through 2026. We help you get ready ahead of the applicable deadlines rather than react to them.
High-risk categories are defined in Annex III and cover uses like employment, creditworthiness, biometrics, and critical infrastructure. Our scoping call walks your systems against those categories so you get a clear in-scope or out-of-scope answer.
It can. The Act reaches providers and deployers whose AI systems affect people in the EU, regardless of where the company is based. Scoping is the first thing we do, so you do not spend on remediation you do not need.
It varies by the number and complexity of your AI systems and how much documentation already exists. We scope it on a discovery call and point you to pricing rather than quoting a number blind.
The price above covers the work. It also covers where the work lives, which most buyers are quoted separately as an annual platform subscription.
| traztech Workspace | Other GRC platforms | |
|---|---|---|
| Licence cost | $0. Free forever, no card, no paid tier | $7,500 to $50,000 a year, on an annual contract |
| Control library, evidence register, policy templates, risk register, vendor questionnaires, readiness scoring | Included | Included |
| What it costs inside an engagement with us | $0. You need a workspace either way | Unchanged. The subscription sits on top of the fee |
| What it does to your audit quote | $11,000 off a five-figure quote on one engagement, for a documented readiness position | Nothing. The audit firm prices your readiness, not your tooling |
Pricing in the right column is what compliance automation platforms are publicly reported to charge; none of them publish a number, so treat it as a range rather than a quote. The $11,000 came off the audit firm's own number once the readiness position was documented (the engagement). Where a paid platform is the better buy, and the fuller comparison, is on the Workspace page.

We are deliberately not a large firm, and we would rather show you the work than a wall of logos. Here is what is behind the advice.
Five published CVEs. CVE-2024-45163 (CVSS 9.1) is a flaw in the Mirai botnet itself, which gave defenders a way to shut down attacker infrastructure. CVE-2026-42626 takes HP ENVY 5000 printers offline from any unauthenticated device on the same network.
The printer is the one that matters on a compliance page: an asset nobody counts as a computer, on a flat network, downed by a device that never had to log in. Auditors ask how controls fail. We have found out first-hand.
At Humera, a venture-backed US security company, Jacob built the compliance programme in-house from nothing: no report, no policies, no documented controls. It ended in a Type II attestation across 76 controls with zero exceptions, on a team of 15.
The platform held 99.9% uptime throughout, which is the part most readiness projects get wrong: controls are easy to design and hard to retrofit onto a system people already depend on.
For a Waterloo data centre operator we ran SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001:2022 together rather than one after the other, across a production campus, an AI compute platform and a self-hosted collaboration stack. Scoped so further Ontario and Quebec sites enter as they reach production. Findings delivered and remediated.
For an Ontario medtech company putting an AI clinical assistant in front of practitioners, we ran the gap analysis and built the evidence programme behind their SOC 2.
