q.beyond AG has launched a new offering called 'AI Act as a Service' to help companies evaluate their AI systems and obtain auditable risk assessments under the EU AI Act. The service, announced on June 9, 2026, aims to accelerate AI deployment by placing AI applications on a safe regulatory footing, ultimately boosting productivity and value creation.
The EU AI Act, the world’s first legal framework for artificial intelligence, is already in force and will become binding for most requirements in August 2026, with high-risk AI systems facing a December 2027 deadline. The regulation applies to companies of all sizes, with requirements based on the potential risk of each AI application. Many firms, however, have yet to implement compliance measures. According to Dr. Daniel Taradzic, Chief AI Officer at q.beyond AG, 'Companies can start directly with AI Act as a Service and promptly obtain an auditable risk assessment.'
AI Act as a Service is available directly on q.beyond’s website here, including a free trial version. The service requires no prior integration and offers monthly subscriptions for one or multiple accounts. It provides companies with an overview of regulatory risks associated with existing or planned AI systems, which often include dozens of large language models and agents.
The service targets corporate decision-makers such as CIOs, compliance managers, and CISOs. During its trial phase, it attracted numerous customers. Ingo List, Managing Director of Antares Project GmbH, noted, 'We had several thousand active AI users but no assessment of the EU AI Act requirements. Thanks to AI Act as a Service, we no longer have this problem.'
Beyond the new service, q.beyond advises companies on secure, data-protection-compliant AI deployment and offers a 'Private Enterprise AI' platform for processing sensitive information. The company develops AI agents for sectors including retail, manufacturing, logistics, banking, insurance, healthcare, energy, and the public sector, operating them as managed services to enhance business value for SME customers.
The EU AI Act aims to minimize risks to security, health, and basic rights while fostering innovation. As companies race to comply, AI Act as a Service provides a practical tool to meet regulatory demands and unlock AI-driven gains.
