A register of AI systems · Nordis.AI
“Discover and catalog all AI systems across your organization with our intelligent wizard. Get complete visibility in minutes, not weeks.”Nordis.AI, in their words and not ours. It was read on 8 November 2026 from nordis.ai.
[3]
Systems you build and systems you buy · Complipath

Live. Every AI system you build or use, with its owner and risk class. The status table: what Complipath is.

[4]
A named owner per system · Complipath

Live. A person behind every system and every duty. The status table: what Complipath is.

[5]
Automatic discovery of AI in use · Complipath

Yes. Read-only connections to GitHub, GitLab, Azure, Datadog and the Claude or OpenAI API find AI in your code, services and logs and suggest it for the register, where a person adds it; an app list exported from Google Admin or Microsoft Entra can be uploaded, and the free readiness review suggests systems from your public web pages. The GitHub App that updates on every push is built and not yet switched on. Source.

[6]
AI used by your suppliers · Complipath

With limits. Groups your systems by vendor and shows which papers you hold from each, which are missing and which have expired; for the AI vendors it knows it links the public terms and, where known, the data processing agreement; it quotes a sentence on personal data or training where one was found, with its link and the day read; each quoted page is read again once a month, and a sentence no longer on its page stops showing. The limit, in the app's own words: "Public terms are quoted for known vendors only, read again monthly; any other vendor is marked Unverified". The status table: what Complipath is.

[7]
EU AI Act risk classification · Complipath

Live. Answers go through rules in code, never a language model, so the same answers always give the same result. Rules decide. AI only drafts. A person confirms. The status table: what Complipath is.

[8]
EU AI Act risk classification · Nordis.AI
“AI-powered classification engine determines your risk level based on EU AI Act criteria. Know exactly where you stand.”Nordis.AI, in their words and not ours. It was read on 8 November 2026 from nordis.ai.
[9]
Prohibited practices (Article 5) · Complipath

Partly. Article 5(1), points (d), (e), (f), (g) and (h) are decided. Points (a), (b) and (c) turn on judgement and are flagged for legal review instead of being decided. Source.

[10]
High-risk check against Annex III · Complipath

Yes. A use case that appears in Annex III is high-risk under Article 6(2) unless the Article 6(3) exemption applies. Source.

[11]
The Article 6(3) exemption · Complipath

Yes. If the use case appears in Annex III, Article 6(2) classifies it high-risk unless the Article 6(3) exemption applies, and profiling of natural persons blocks the exemption entirely. Source.

[12]
Provider or deployer role · Complipath

Partly. Which obligations follow from the role you stated is decided. Whether you are the provider or the deployer is asked, never inferred. Source.

[13]
Obligations listed per system · Complipath

With limits. Confirming a classification creates the requirements that follow from it, each with a status, a place for evidence and an owner you fill in: for high risk, the set for the system's role (provider, deployer or both, from its recorded type or confirmed role), and a row for each Article 50 transparency duty. The rows are made at a system's first confirmation; when a later high-risk classification, a role change or a newer catalogue leaves high-risk rows missing, Review proposes them and a person adds them. The limit, in the app's own words: "Rows appear once a person confirms the classification, and a person marks each one done, never the app". The status table: what Complipath is.

[14]
The article behind each obligation · Complipath

Live. Each reason behind a verdict names the provision it rests on, so a reader can check it herself. The status table: what Complipath is.

[15]
Deadlines per obligation · Complipath

Live. Each obligation carries the date it applies from, derived from where the provision sits rather than written onto the row. The status table: what Complipath is.

[16]
AI literacy (Article 4) · Complipath

Live. Records the measures you take to support AI literacy under Article 4 as amended: who was briefed on what, and when. It applies whatever your risk level. The status table: what Complipath is.

[17]
Transparency duties (Article 50) · Complipath

Yes. Article 50 makes some systems tell people they are dealing with AI, and a system can carry that duty and be high-risk at the same time. Source.

[18]
Monitoring of changes in the law · Complipath

Live. Checks the provisions your confirmed records cite against amending acts, and emails everyone in the workspace once per act, naming each system it touches. The status table: what Complipath is.

[19]
Monitoring of changes in the law · Nordis.AI
“Track compliance status, get alerts on regulatory changes, and stay audit-ready 24/7 with automated monitoring.”Nordis.AI, in their words and not ours. It was read on 8 November 2026 from nordis.ai.
[20]
Post-market monitoring (Article 72) · Complipath

Live. For a provider of a high-risk system: drafts of the EU declaration of conformity (Article 47, Annex V), the EU database registration (Article 49, Annex VIII), the post-market monitoring plan (Article 72), risk management (Article 9) from the risk register and the quality management system (Article 17), each point quoted from the law; a person completes and signs them The status table: what Complipath is.

[21]
Post-market monitoring (Article 72) · Nordis.AI
“Post-market monitoring & incident log”Nordis.AI, in their words and not ours. It was read on 8 November 2026 from nordis.ai. A list item in the column headed "REG. 2024/1689" / "EU AI Act".
[22]
Serious incident reporting (Article 73) · Complipath

With limits. Logs what went wrong with an AI system and shows the date a serious incident must be reported by, from Article 73 (the shortest date that could apply while answers are Not sure), who is told under Article 73(1), Article 75(1a) and Article 26(5), and a GDPR 72-hour line where personal data is involved; a person decides whether it is serious, the owner is reminded; each incident also shows an internal first report within 24 hours and a cause report within two weeks, which are not dates from the Regulation. The limit, in the app's own words: "Shows the reporting deadline and who must be told; it never reports to an authority for you". The status table: what Complipath is.

[23]
Serious incident reporting (Article 73) · Nordis.AI

[24]
Monitoring of models in operation · Complipath

Partly. Complipath does not test models or score their outputs. On Growth, Live checks your code and logs every hour and after each push and names what breaks the AI Act or GDPR, such as personal data sent to a model or a chatbot with no AI notice; a connected Datadog account shows how often each AI service was called and its error rate, and the Claude or OpenAI API shows the models used in the last 30 days. Source.

[25]
Tasks, reminders and workflows · Complipath

Yes. Each obligation has an owner, a status and a date it applies from; the step-by-step plan breaks your next steps into small steps with an owner where one is recorded, Review lists everything that waits for a person, a short email each Monday sums up your register, and when an amending act touches a provision your records cite, you get an email per affected system. Source.

[26]

[29]
AI-assisted drafting of documents · Complipath

Live. Drafts a documentation section from the facts in your register, and says which limbs it could not answer. The status table: what Complipath is.

[30]
Fundamental rights impact assessment (Article 27) · Complipath

Live. Two features. 'DPIA and FRIA: whether they apply' says for each confirmed system whether a fundamental rights impact assessment is required, likely or not, quoting Article 27(1). 'DPIA and FRIA documents', in the app's words, drafts the FRIA (Article 27(1)) from your register by rules, built on the DPIA, a source on every sentence, for a named person to confirm with a date: included in Growth. The status table: what Complipath is.

The 10 pages of Nordis.AI's site we read, on 8 November 2026:

Try both on the same system.Complipath's Free plan is for one AI system and one user. Compare the answer you get with Nordis.AI's.

Questions

Is this comparison neutral?

It is written by Complipath, so read it as ours. What keeps it checkable is the rule on both sides: each Nordis.AI cell is their own sentence with the page it stood on, and each Complipath cell is what our own pages say. Where a side's pages say nothing, the cell says so.

What does "Not stated on the pages we read" mean?

That none of the 10 pages of Nordis.AI's site we read on 8 November 2026 said it. It is a statement about those pages, listed below, not about the product: ask Nordis.AI before you rule anything out.

Which should I choose?

Start from the rows you need. Where Nordis.AI's own site states a requirement that Complipath's pages answer no or not yet, Nordis.AI is the closer fit on that row, by what each side says publicly. If you want each classification with its article and the version of the law it used, at a public price, start with Complipath's free check.
