Requisite
An Article 14 compliance assessment tool by Ashby
If you're building AI that affects people's lives, you need effective human oversight. If those systems fall under the EU AI Act, you need to prove it (opens in new tab).
Requisite finds the gaps, maps them to your Article 14 obligations, and gives you practical patterns your team can build from.
How it works
Requisite walks you through an assessment of your AI system's human oversight across ten domains.
Each one maps to a specific aspect of what Article 14 requires. Can users override decisions? Can your system recover from errors? Do the people overseeing it actually understand what it's doing?
You can work through it yourself using the structured questionnaire, or use the AI-guided mode, which takes you through each domain conversationally and adapts to your answers. The AI will explain some of the complexity for you. Your data stays in your session and is never used for training.
Either way, you answer the questions about your system. Requisite scores your answers, and you receive a prioritised set of guidance and patterns tailored to what you're building.
What you get
A scored assessment.
Ten domains, each on a clear scale. You see exactly where you're strong and where you're exposed.
Patterns you can implement.
These are things your developers can build, not things your lawyers have to interpret. For every gap, Requisite recommends specific oversight patterns mapped to your Article 14 obligations.
A clear path to compliance.
Requisite maps your gaps to the specific Article 14 requirements they fall under and gives you a prioritised route to meeting them. When a regulator asks how you handle human oversight, you have an answer.
Early access
We're looking for small teams building AI products who want to test Requisite before it launches. Try the assessment, tell us what works, tell us what doesn't.

Named for Ashby's Law of Requisite Variety: effective oversight must match the complexity of the system it governs.
Requisite guides you through a structured assessment of your AI system's human oversight. You provide the answers; Requisite scores them and provides guidance and implementable patterns to mitigate gaps. It does not constitute legal advice or formal conformity assessment.
