Our methodology

Evidence you can trace, from your own store.

After you install Aveus AI, it reads your theme and your product images, lists the AI it finds and gives each item an EU AI Act risk level, so you can see what to disclose and what to review.

RISK LEVELS

Every finding gets a risk level

The App uses four levels: prohibited, high, limited and minimal. These three are the ones you will see most often; a prohibited practice is flagged on its own.

EU AI ACT ART. 6

High Risk

Systems that need close human oversight. If you decide to remove one, the App guides you step by step (Kill Switch).

  • Uses listed in Annex III of the EU AI Act
  • Rare in a typical online store
  • You decide what happens next
EU AI ACT ART. 50

Limited Risk

Systems that must let people know they are dealing with AI. On Pro, the Trust Badge can tell your visitors.

  • Chatbots and virtual assistants
  • Content generated with AI
  • Listed on your public AI disclosure page
NO SPECIFIC OBLIGATIONS

Minimal Risk

Recorded in your compliance ledger, so your record is complete without disrupting your store.

  • Standard analytics tools
  • Basic storefront scripts
  • Recorded automatically in your compliance ledger
WHAT WE DO

What Aveus AI looks at in your store

Three areas, read with the permissions you approve when you install the App.

Scripts from apps and services

AI tools, such as chat, recommendation or personalisation services, that your theme and installed apps add to your storefront.

AI images

Product images whose metadata says they were made or edited with AI.

Installed apps (Max)

Every night the Shadow AI Scanner checks your public storefront for AI that installed apps add without saying so.

What an automated check cannot see

Aveus AI reads your theme, your storefront and your product images, not how your back office runs. We are explicit about this gap.

  • Supplier contracts and signed processor DPAs
  • Internal employee HR algorithms
  • Retention, deletion and DSAR handling evidence
  • LLM use outside the platform (e.g. ChatGPT for copy)

How each tier shows up in your report

The PDF certificate lists each item with its risk level and what the audit covered. It records what the App found; it is not a legal assessment.
