EU AI Act Compliance Pricing

Risk-aligned pricing tiers designed for AI compliance software. Each tier corresponds to a legal risk class, mandatory obligations, and depth of automation.

Pricing & Plans — Risk-Aligned Subscription Tiers

On Target Compliance pricing is structured around the EU AI Act's four risk classification tiers. Each plan unlocks the compliance modules, automation features, and documentation tools that correspond to your organisation's legal obligations under the Act. Organisations with higher-risk AI systems require deeper compliance tooling — the tier structure ensures you only pay for what your risk profile demands.

How Tiers Map to the EU AI Act

Tier 1 coversMinimal/No Risk systems with basic inventory and policy tools. Tier 2 adds Limited Risk transparency obligations (Art. 50). Tier 3 unlocks the full High-Risk AI Systems compliance suite (Arts. 9–17, 26, 72–73). The Prohibited AI System Risk add-on provides monitoring and documentation for systems near prohibited use-case boundaries.

What Each Plan Includes

Each tier card below lists the specific features and compliance modules included. Higher tiers include everything from lower tiers plus additional capabilities. Key modules unlocked at Tier 3 include: Human Oversight Log, Accuracy & Robustness Testing, Monitoring & Incidents, Enforcement Correspondence, and the full Compliance Reports suite.

Upgrading Your Plan

ClickGet Started or Upgrade on any tier card to initiate a subscription change. Your current plan is shown in your account settings. If your AI system's risk classification changes (e.g. following a new conformity assessment), you should upgrade your plan to ensure you have access to all legally required compliance tools.

How your plan connects to your compliance programme: Your subscription tier determines which modules are accessible → AI System risk classification (AI Systems page) should match your plan tier → High-risk systems require Tier 3 to access all mandatory Art. 9–17 documentation and control modules → User Management page shows each user's assigned tier.

Why This Pricing Works
Our pricing model aligns with how buyers, regulators, and investors think about AI compliance

Buyers think in risk, not features

Each tier corresponds to a legal risk class under the EU AI Act, making it easy for organizations to select the right compliance level.

Regulators think in obligations

Every tier maps directly to mandatory obligations (Articles 5-15, Annex III-IV), ensuring comprehensive compliance coverage.

Procurement wants predictable tiers

Clear tier boundaries and transparent pricing make budget approval and vendor selection straightforward.

Investors want ARPU expansion paths

Natural upsell progression from Tier 1 → Tier 2 → Tier 3 as customer risk and compliance needs increase.

Far cheaper than consultants (€50k–€250k), aligned to legal obligation depth, and expandable as customer risk increases. Perfect for zero-customer launch → enterprise upsell.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know which tier I need?

Your tier depends on your AI system's risk classification under the EU AI Act (Articles 5-15, Annex III). Use our automated risk assessment tool to determine your system's risk level, then choose the corresponding tier. Most startups begin with Tier 1, then upgrade to Tier 2 once high-risk classification is detected.

What's the difference between Tier 2 and Tier 3?

Tier 2 (Operational Compliance) covers core high-risk obligations with mixed automation and annual reviews. Tier 3 (Audit-Ready & Enforcement Defence) adds continuous monitoring, full Annex IV documentation, post-market surveillance, and enforcement-ready audit packs for enterprises facing regulator scrutiny.

Can I upgrade or downgrade my plan?

Yes, you can change your plan at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately. Downgrades take effect at the end of your current billing period. Most customers upgrade from Tier 1 to Tier 2 once their AI system is classified as high-risk.

When would I need the Prohibited-Risk Advisory?

Tier 4 is an optional add-on for legal teams, investors doing AI due diligence, or M&A reviews when prohibited practices (Article 5) are detected. This is high-liability work and is offered only on request as a one-time advisory engagement.

Is there a free trial?

Yes, Tier 1 includes a free trial or €99 entry point. You can start with risk classification and basic compliance artifacts, then upgrade to Tier 2 once high-risk status is confirmed.
