Possible EDIH.li partner lead
Private AI knowledge hub
A controlled knowledge space with source links, access rules and reviewable answers.
Can users find the right answer when sources or permissions change?
Examples for discussion. A named eligible legal entity, budget and grant tasks must be agreed for each proposal.04 / Priority sectors
Priority sectors and first cases
The partner workshop highlighted finance, construction, municipalities and healthcare. Compliance and HR add concrete regulated tasks for discussion.
Simple starting case · Legal and compliance
Check a report against approved rules and show each source.
What new method would make that check dependable?
It is a discussion example, not a validated product or an EIC proposal.
See all example cases
- Legal and compliance: Check a report against approved rules and show each source.
- Planning and construction: Trace a claim in a project report to the document and page.
- Healthcare and care: Prepare a clear explanation for staff review.
- HR and professional services: Review a recruitment workflow and make human decisions traceable.
- Finance and fiduciary services: Find an answer across approved client and regulatory sources.
- Municipal services: Draft an answer from current guidance while staff keep control.
05 / EU AI Act
The intended use determines AI risk
A regulated sector does not make every AI tool high-risk. A recruitment tool, clinical decision tool and internal knowledge assistant can have different duties.
Intended use first
Does the system rank or select people? Employment selection is listed in Annex III and can be high-risk.
Define the intended use, human oversight and evidence before a trial.
This is a screening question, not a legal classification. Read the AI Act06 / The EDIH.li team
The EDIH.li partner network
The six consortium partners bring different delivery skills. This is the existing EDIH.li network; it is not a proposed EIC or Erasmus+ applicant list.
