The enforcement of the EU AI Act will involve several institutional actors at both EU and national level.
This tracker monitors:
• EU-level institutions responsible for AI governance
• national supervisory authorities
• enforcement actions and guidance
• publicly available implementation developments
The objective is to provide structured, practical visibility on how the AI Act is being implemented across Europe.
