Is your business using AI without knowing the rules?
Recruitment tools, chatbots, and monitoring software can all fall under the EU AI Act. Most Irish businesses are deployers under the Act already, and most don’t know it. This playbook explains what applies to you, what doesn’t, and what to do about it.

Most businesses discover they’re in scope after an audit, or a client, asks the wrong question.
AI tools are now embedded across recruitment, customer service, and day-to-day operations. Most Irish businesses are already deployers under the Act, whether they’ve assessed it or not.
For many businesses, the real issue isn’t whether they use AI, it’s whether they know which rules already apply to them.
Without a clear view of your AI use, even routine tools can lead to:
- Untrained staff using AI tools inconsistently, creating rework and risk
- Undisclosed AI in customer or candidate interactions, damaging trust once it’s found
- Ungoverned tools creating process gaps and inconsistent decisions
- Fines and remediation costs eating into margins
- Regulatory investigations and lasting reputational damage
