Why this object hangs off that object
Every object in this graph has its own address and can be cited on its own. This page shows which objects exist and, once you open one, why it hangs off another: from which source with its locator, through which condition or exception, to which consequence.
Since the last release an obligation states separately who carries the duty and who is merely affected. Filter by duty holder and you get the duties resting on a role; filter by actor and you get everything that is about that role. That difference is visible on purpose.
This is the knowledge layer under the four levels of the assessment. See the four levels.

Only dimensions the data carries. A dimension without values is absent rather than empty.

Admission system at a higher education institution: who registers in the EU database
praxikon:eu:ai-act:example:example-toelating-hogeschool-registratie-eu-databank
A higher education institution procures an AI system that organises student applications and enrolment and produces an admission recommendation for each candidate in its vocational programmes. The supplier says it handles the conformity assessment itself and affixes the CE marking. What is left unresolved is whether the institution still has a step of its own to take before the system goes into use in its teaching.

Annex I lists legislation, not products
praxikon:eu:ai-act:guidance:guidance-high-risk-annex-i-lists-legislation-not-products
Annex I contains no list of high-risk products but an exhaustive list of harmonisation legislation. The AI Act does not extend the scope of that product legislation and does not change a product's risk profile.

Two cumulative conditions for high-risk under Annex I
praxikon:eu:ai-act:guidance:guidance-high-risk-annex-i-two-cumulative-conditions
An AI system only becomes high-risk under Article 6(1) when two conditions are met at the same time: the system is itself a regulated product or a safety component of one, and that product must undergo third-party conformity assessment.

The Article 6(3) filter: four exhaustive grounds, to be read narrowly

A system falling within Annex III can still stay outside high-risk if one of four grounds is met and the system does not perform profiling. The provider makes that call itself, must document the assessment before placing the system on the market, and must register the system in the EU database.

Two routes to safety component: intent or consequence
praxikon:eu:ai-act:guidance:guidance-high-risk-safety-function-versus-failure-route
An AI system is a safety component via two alternative routes. Either it is intended to fulfil a safety function, or its failure or malfunctioning endangers health, safety or property.

Standalone software, updates and remote services can also be high-risk
praxikon:eu:ai-act:guidance:guidance-high-risk-standalone-software-updates-and-add-ons
Article 6(1) applies regardless of whether the AI system is embedded in the product or placed on the market independently. A software update, add-on or remote service can therefore be high-risk in its own right.

When a customer or distributor itself becomes the provider
praxikon:eu:ai-act:guidance:guidance-high-risk-substantial-modification-article-25
Distributors, importers, deployers and other third parties can take on provider obligations. That happens when you put your own name or trademark on a system, when you make a substantial modification to a high-risk system, and when you change the intended purpose of a non high-risk system so that it becomes high-risk.

The fact that a manufacturer may opt for internal control based on harmonised standards does not affect the high-risk classification. Classification follows the level of enhanced scrutiny required by the product legislation, not the procedure chosen.

What this explorer does not do
- There is no article object. The article sits as a locator on the citations of an obligation, as free text. Filtering on the obligation is the same question, and the data does carry that.
- No object carries an Annex III domain or use case. A selection of the form "systems for this purpose" cannot be expressed here.
- A locator hangs on a statement in the data, not on a relation. The source next to a path is the source anchor of the object carrying the relation, not proof of that one connection.
- The split between duty holder and affected actor exists on obligations only. On every other type the actor list is still one undifferentiated list.
- The graph stores no inverse relations. The incoming direction is computed here over the same release and adds nothing to the data.
- Topics are free slugs, not a taxonomy with objects, labels or a hierarchy of their own.
The same selection as data
The explorer and the API read the same object against the same two time axes. What you see here can be fetched with the same parameters.
