AI Act readiness approach: from scan to evidence dossier in 30 days
An AI Act readiness approach takes you in 30 days from a first scan to a usable evidence dossier. At Embed AI you start with the free quickscan, deepen it into a register and classification, and the Readiness Sprint builds the evidence pack with gap matrix and a 30-60-90 day roadmap on top of that.

What is an AI Act readiness approach
An AI Act readiness approach is a structured route that brings your AI systems, roles, risks and missing evidence into one decision-ready dossier. Embed AI runs that approach with the Readiness Sprint, so legal, IT and leadership can steer on facts instead of assumptions.
Not just advice
You get a working evidence dossier with register, classification and gap matrix, not loose recommendations you have to work out yourself.
Time-bound
The approach runs in a defined period of about 30 days after kickoff and scope freeze, with clear deliverables per week.
Ownership
Per system it becomes visible who owns it, which route is likely and which evidence is still missing.
How do you get from scan to evidence dossier
The route runs from a free quickscan to a creditable guided scan and then the Readiness Sprint that builds the dossier. Each step builds on the previous, so you do nothing twice.
Free quickscan
You map AI use, suppliers and first obligations and see where your biggest gap sits. This is the low-friction first step.
Gap intake or guided scan
We deepen the scan into a register, first classification and the biggest gaps, so the scope is right before you choose an engagement.
Readiness Sprint on the right scope
We build the evidence dossier: classification per system, gap matrix, evidence pack and the 30-60-90 day roadmap.
What the Readiness Sprint delivers
AI register with system, purpose, owner, supplier and process context
Risk classification per system: prohibited, high-risk, transparency duty, GPAI or low risk
Gap matrix for governance, data, logging, human oversight, transparency and monitoring
Evidence pack that leadership, legal, IT and customers can read
DPIA/FRIA signals for systems that affect people, privacy or fundamental rights
30-60-90 day roadmap with owners, priorities and decision points
The approach in 30 days
Week 1: scope, intake and register
We define the scope, run short interviews and build the AI register with systems, owners and suppliers.
Week 2: classification and gap matrix
We assign each system an AI Act route and record where evidence is missing across governance, data, transparency and human oversight.
Week 3: evidence pack
We assemble the first evidence dossier with findings, priorities and practical templates.
Week 4: roadmap and leadership debrief
We sequence actions into 30, 60 and 90 days and decide the next step together: supplier evidence, AI literacy or policy.
What does the Readiness Sprint cost
The public route is intake-first. The online quickscan gives direction, the gap intake sets scope, and then you receive a proposal for the right route: guided scan, Readiness Sprint or bundle. We do not publish a fixed package price here because the number of systems, processes, suppliers and evidence needs determines the work.
First step
Free quickscan
Online quickscan to find your biggest AI Act gap.
Guided scan
Scoped after intake
Register, first classification and biggest gaps.
Readiness Sprint
Proposal after scan
From scan to evidence dossier in 30 days.
Compliance Bundle
Tailored bundle
Readiness, supplier evidence, AI literacy and policy in one engagement.
Scope and investment are defined after intake based on organization size, number of AI systems, processes, suppliers and the evidence layer required.
What is the first step
The first step is the free quickscan. In a few minutes you see where your biggest AI Act gap sits and whether a guided scan or the Readiness Sprint directly makes sense. No cost and no obligation.
AI literacy as part of the evidence
LearnWize is the training and evidence product for AI literacy under Article 4. It connects to the evidence dossier from the Readiness Sprint.

Frequently asked questions
What is an AI Act readiness approach?
An AI Act readiness approach brings your AI systems, roles, risks and missing evidence into one decision-ready dossier. Embed AI runs it with the Readiness Sprint, which moves from scan to evidence dossier in about 30 days.
How do you get from scan to evidence dossier?
Through three steps: the free quickscan to find your gap, a creditable guided scan for register and first classification, and the Readiness Sprint that delivers classification, gap matrix, evidence pack and roadmap.
What does the Readiness Sprint deliver?
An AI register, classification per system, a gap matrix, an evidence pack that leadership, legal and IT can read, DPIA/FRIA signals and a 30-60-90 day roadmap with owners and priorities.
What does the Readiness Sprint cost?
That follows after intake and scoping. The quickscan gives direction; then we determine whether a guided scan, Readiness Sprint or bundle makes sense. You receive a proposal before deciding.
What is the first step?
The free quickscan. It is free, carries no obligation and shows in a few minutes where your biggest AI Act gap sits and which route makes sense.
Can an evidence dossier really be done in 30 days?
Yes, for the agreed scope. The clock starts after kickoff and scope freeze. We do most of the drafting; internally it usually takes a few short interviews and one review moment.
Start with the Gap Intake or quickscan.
The Gap Intake helps set the right scope. If you want initial direction first, run the quickscan.
