Hi! I'm your AI Assistant
I can help you analyze interview sessions, understand candidate performance, and provide insights about your recruitment data.
The EU AI Act isn't coming—it's here. And while most AI companies are scrambling to understand what "general purpose AI" even means, we're already compliant. Not because we had to be, but because we built JobInterview.live the right way from day one.
Let me be blunt: if you're building AI products in 2024 and you haven't thought about Article 73, you're playing Russian roulette with your business. The fines? Up to €15 million or 3% of global annual turnover. But more importantly, you're missing an opportunity to build trust with your users—the real competitive advantage in the age of AI skepticism.
Here's how we're navigating the regulatory maze, and why our approach to compliance actually makes our AI Board Room better, not worse.
Article 73 of the EU AI Act targets "general purpose AI models"—systems that can be adapted for multiple use cases. Sound familiar? That's basically every LLM-powered product on the market.
The requirements are deceptively simple:
Most founders see this as bureaucratic overhead. I see it as a forcing function for building better products.
Here's the uncomfortable truth: if you can't explain how your AI works, you don't understand it well enough to ship it. Article 73 just makes that explicit.
At the heart of our compliance strategy is our Skills architecture. Each capability in the AI Board Room—whether it's Atlas conducting market research, Cipher analyzing code, or Nova brainstorming creative concepts—is defined in a discrete SKILL.md file.
This isn't just elegant engineering. It's compliance gold.
Every skill documents:
When regulators ask "how does your AI work?", we don't hand them a black box. We hand them a library of readable, version-controlled documentation. Each skill is a mini-compliance package.
The modular design also means we can update, audit, and improve individual capabilities without touching the entire system. Found a bias in how Atlas evaluates market data? We fix that one skill, document the change, and move on. No archaeological dig through monolithic codebases.
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Agent-to-Agent (A2A) protocol aren't just fancy names for internal plumbing. They're the backbone of our logging infrastructure.
Every time an agent uses a tool (via MCP) or delegates to another agent (via A2A), we log:
This creates a complete audit trail. Not for surveillance—for accountability.
When a user asks "why did Nova suggest this brand direction?", we can reconstruct the entire reasoning chain. We can show which market signals Atlas provided, how the User Dossier influenced the recommendation, and what alternatives were considered.
This level of transparency isn't just Article 73 compliance. It's how you build products users actually trust.
Our Critic Agent is the unsung hero of compliance. Before any output reaches the user, the Critic reviews it for:
The Critic isn't a rubber stamp. It regularly flags outputs for human review or triggers automatic revisions. We track these interventions meticulously.
Article 73 requires "human oversight mechanisms." Most companies interpret this as "have a human check things sometimes." We interpret it as "build an AI quality control system that knows when to escalate to humans."
The result? Our human reviewers spend time on genuinely ambiguous cases, not on routine verification. It's more effective oversight with less overhead.
Here's where we get a bit contrarian: not everything needs to be an LLM.
Our use of Google's ADK (Agent Development Kit) and deterministic components for critical workflows means certain behaviors are guaranteed, not probabilistic. When Action Extraction turns a user's voice input into structured tasks, it follows a deterministic pipeline with explicit error handling.
Why does this matter for compliance? Because you can't audit randomness.
The EU AI Act implicitly assumes AI systems are explainable. Pure LLM chains often aren't. By using deterministic components for core routing and safety checks, we create predictable behavior that's actually auditable.
We save the creative, generative power of models like for where it belongs: generating insights, not managing critical infrastructure.
Article 73 requires transparency about data usage. The User Dossier is our answer.
Every user can see exactly what context we maintain about them:
This isn't just a compliance dashboard. It's a trust-building tool. Users understand that our AI Board Room gets better because it remembers context—and they can see and control that context.
We're not hiding behind vague privacy policies. We're showing our work.
Here's the part most founders miss: compliance done right is a moat.
As the EU AI Act enforcement ramps up, non-compliant AI products will face:
Meanwhile, products built with compliance in mind will have:
For solo founders and small teams, this is your chance to compete with big tech. While they're retrofitting compliance into sprawling systems, you can build it in from the start.
If you're building on AI—and as a solo founder or entrepreneur, you should be—here's my advice:
1. Design for explainability. If you can't explain how your AI makes decisions, you're building on quicksand.
2. Log everything (responsibly). Audit trails aren't surveillance; they're insurance.
3. Modularize your AI capabilities. Monolithic AI systems are compliance nightmares and engineering disasters.
4. Build quality controls into the system. Human review should be for edge cases, not every output.
5. Treat transparency as a feature, not a burden. Users want to understand AI, not fear it.
The EU AI Act isn't perfect. But it's pushing us toward AI systems that are more reliable, more transparent, and more trustworthy. That's good for everyone.
Want to see Article 73 compliance in action? Try the AI Board Room at JobInterview.live.
Experience what it's like to work with AI agents—Atlas, Cipher, Nova, and the team—that are transparent about their capabilities, auditable in their decisions, and designed to earn your trust.
Because the future of work isn't just about AI that's powerful. It's about AI you can actually rely on.
