The compliance audit that takes 20 minutes, not 3 months.

Traditional AI audits cost €5,000–€40,000. Vigilia maps your entire agent network, detects every EU AI Act gap, and delivers an audit-ready report for €499. Article 50 transparency has been in force since 2 August 2026 — that date did not move.

From “we’re probably fine” to knowing exactly which articles say otherwise. In 20 minutes.

What €499 buys, and when not to spend it.

01

Why €499 when a conventional audit costs €5,000–€40,000?

Because it is not the same work. A conventional audit is bespoke legal interpretation, billed by the hour. Vigilia runs a deterministic structural scan: it maps the system you declare, tests it against the Act article by article, and reports where the structure falls short. That is computation, and computation does not bill by the hour. The price reflects what the analysis costs to run — not what the deadline is worth to you.

02

What does the report not tell me?

It reads the architecture you declare, not the system as it runs. It cannot confirm that your description is accurate, that a control works in production, or how a model behaves under load. It is a structural X-ray of your governance, not a certificate of compliance, and it is not legal advice. For everything it finds, it shows you the reasoning.

03

When is €499 obviously worth it?

When you carry real regulatory surface area. If you build or operate in recruitment, credit, health, education, biometrics or essential services — Annex III territory — an article-mapped picture of your gaps costs less than an hour or two of outside counsel, and it is the document your board and your lawyers both asked for. If you sell governance work, it sits inside a larger remediation engagement as its cheapest line.

04

When is it not worth it?

If you run two chatbots and an internal copilot, Article 50 is close to your whole obligation and you can meet it without us. If you have no EU users and no realistic enforcement exposure, this is future-proofing rather than risk reduction. Modelling a small estate as a graph can cost more attention than the answer returns. We would rather write that here than take the €499.
