The Problem
Why European SMEs struggle to adopt AI responsibly
August 2026 deadline looms but most SMEs don't know which risk tier they fall under, what obligations apply, or what concrete steps to take before penalties kick in.
78 EU and national funding programs exist across Horizon Europe, Digital Europe, and country-specific grants — but navigating the landscape without specialist support overwhelms most organisations.
AI deployments create new data processing activities that organisations fail to assess before deployment, leaving them exposed to Article 83 fines and supervisory authority scrutiny.
Most companies don't know where they stand: digital maturity gaps, infrastructure deficiencies, and workforce readiness issues remain invisible until they cause expensive project failures.

Architecture
Three layers: a conversational intake that meets SMEs where they are, a 4-agent compliance + funding pipeline, and a PDF playbook that lands in their inbox the same day.
10–15 friendly exchanges over Mistral chat. Profile: company size, industry, country, current AI usage, pain points, ambition. Multi-language (FR/EN today, more rolling out). No corporate readiness-assessment fatigue.
Profiler → Compliance → Use Cases → Report. EU AI Act + GDPR rule-based scoring with Article references. Pan-European funding RAG (FR, GR, DE, ES, IT, NL, BE, SE, AT, PT, FI, DK, IE, CZ + all 27 EU via open data). EDIH regional matching.
WeasyPrint PDF report with compliance posture, funding shortlist, EDIH match, and a 3-phase implementation roadmap. Email flow with verification + report-ready notification. Token-gated admin panel for assessment statistics and approvals.
