For US, UK, UAE, and APAC AI-enabled product leadership and commercial teams entering or operating inside EU markets, where the EU AI Act enforces from August 2, 2026 with penalties up to thirty-five million euro or seven percent of global annual turnover, regardless of where the company is based.
A US AI-enabled product released in the EU is in scope. A UAE-based AI service used by EU customers is in scope. A Singapore-based AI platform with EU users is in scope. The EU regulator does not require the AI provider to be EU-incorporated for the Act to apply.
Cross-border AI providers commonly arrive in the EU with a US-shaped or jurisdiction-shaped compliance posture that does not map to the EU AI Act risk-tier framework (unacceptable, high, limited, minimal). Commercial materials carry US-startup or UAE-platform tonality that the EU compliance reader scores against the Act's transparency, documentation, and post-market-monitoring obligations. The legal compliance work and the commercial-layer work are different problems with different owners.
GMA does not provide legal compliance advice. The AI Act compliance work is done by the client's own legal counsel and an EU-based AI-compliance specialist firm. Counsel handles risk-tier classification, CE-marking pathway, technical documentation, and post-market-monitoring legal structure.
GMA rebuilds the commercial layer that operates inside the legal compliance posture the client's counsel has established:
AI-enabled product company with EU customers or EU pipeline. Revenue band twenty-five million to two billion dollars. AI Act risk-tier classification work already underway with legal counsel. Commitment to rebuilding the EU-facing commercial layer to operate inside the compliance posture counsel has established.
Out of scope. Legal compliance advice stays with client's counsel and an EU-based AI-compliance specialist. Risk-tier classification under the Act stays with counsel. CE-marking pathway design stays with counsel. AI model technical documentation drafting stays with client's engineering and counsel.
Six to ten weeks. EU-corridor entry preparation, single member state, commercial-layer alignment to the risk-tier posture counsel has set.
See the Sprint →Three to six months. Multi-member-state EU rollout with commercial-layer rebuild aligned to AI Act posture across each member state's reading.
See the Build →Monthly retainer, twelve-month minimum. AI providers operating multi-year EU presence with ongoing post-market-monitoring narrative. Pricing is confirmed in discovery, not on the public site.
See the Partnership →GMA does not provide legal compliance advice on the EU AI Act. Risk-tier classification, CE-marking pathway, technical documentation, conformity assessment, and post-market-monitoring legal structure stay with the client's counsel and with an EU-based AI-compliance specialist firm. GMA does not draft AI model technical documentation, does not file conformity assessments, and does not interpret Article-specific obligations on the client's behalf. The commercial-layer rebuild operates downstream of the compliance posture counsel has set.
No. GMA does not provide legal compliance advice. Risk-tier classification is a legal-compliance question handled by client's counsel and EU-based AI-compliance specialists. GMA rebuilds the commercial layer that operates inside the compliance posture counsel has established.
Yes. The Act covers limited-risk and minimal-risk systems with transparency obligations even where high-risk classification does not apply. General-purpose AI models have their own provisions. Counsel determines tier; GMA handles commercial-layer alignment to whichever tier applies.
Likely yes for the AI system itself, in addition to the reseller obligations. Counsel determines the specific posture.
The penalty risk is a legal-compliance question. GMA's commercial-layer rebuild reduces commercial risk (deal stall, customer trust erosion, brand damage in EU markets) that flows from compliance posture being commercially unreadable, even where legal compliance is in place.
