How Veillo classifies a system

Every system in your register has a tier, and Veillo always shows how it got there. There are two routes, and they are kept deliberately separate.

Updated May 2026

Two routes to a tier

When you add a system, its tier comes from one of two places. The badge on the row tells you which.

Two systems, two routes. The reviewed catalog answer on top; an AI-assisted suggestion below, waiting to be confirmed.
  • The counsel-reviewed catalog. For a known tool used in a known way, the answer is the same for everyone, so counsel reviews it once and you inherit it with the reasoning attached. These read counsel-reviewed, or catalog · pending review while the entry is still being signed off.
  • An AI-assisted suggestion. For something new, a model proposes a starting tier. It is marked AI-assisted and a person confirms it. It never stands as your answer on its own.

The four tiers

Veillo uses the Act's own tiers, shown as a tag on every system.

PROHIBITEDBanned under Article 5, like social scoring. Stop the use and seek counsel.
HIGH-RISKAn Annex III high-risk use, such as recruitment or credit decisions. The heaviest deployer duties apply.
LIMITEDInteracts with people or generates content, so transparency duties under Article 50 apply.
MINIMALEverything else. No specific obligation beyond AI literacy and good practice.

Why the same tool can differ

A tier describes a use, not a product. The same tool can be minimal-risk in one part of your business and high-risk in another, which is why the register records what you use each tool for. Having the tool on its own does not set the tier. If you add a new use to an existing tool, add it as a separate use so each one is classified on its own terms.

The basis is always shown

You will never have to guess whether a tier is reviewed law or a suggestion. The badge on each system, and the reasoning beneath it, make the basis plain. High-risk and prohibited results always wait for a person to confirm them, so the system fails toward review rather than a silent wrong answer. To act on a flagged system, see confirm or reclassify a high-risk system.

Veillo is compliance tooling, not a law firm. Even counsel-reviewed content is general reference, not legal advice on your specific situation.
