The compliance question
“Are we even allowed to do this under data-protection law?” The data usually ends up in a US cloud – and the EU AI Act adds new obligations.
Sovereign AI platform from Austria
Sovereign AI from Austria — GDPR- & AI-Act-compliant, reliably repeatable.
Your data stays in your own house or in an EU data centre – never in the US cloud. Data protection and the EU AI Act are built in, not bolted on. And instead of chat roulette, recurring AI workflows deliver reliably identical results – built by your own experts, without developers.

The problem
ChatGPT at work? Two questions stay open.
Since 2023 we keep hearing the same two sentences from our customers: “Are we even allowed to do this under data-protection law?” and “How do we get the AI to work reliably?” An open chat window answers neither: results differ every time, are hard to trace – and the data usually ends up in a US cloud. Fine for occasional experimenting. Not for operational use.
The reliability question
“How do we get the AI to work reliably?” Results differ every time and are hard to trace – unfit for a fixed process.
The solution
One platform that answers both.
Your data stays where you want it.
On-premise, hybrid or in the EU cloud. Local AI models, no silent data outflow, no training on your data. Sovereignty you can verify.
Learn moreCompliance is built in, not bolted on.
Every use case is automatically classified under the EU AI Act; data protection and audit evidence run along. Documentation for auditors at the push of a button.
Learn moreReliable instead of chat roulette.
Your business team assembles recurring AI workflows itself – with building blocks, without a line of code. Same input, reliably the same result.
Learn moreSovereignty & operations
Your data. Your data centre. Your choice.
One platform, three operating models: fully in your own house, hybrid, or as SaaS in an EU data centre – switchable at any time. AI models can run entirely locally. There is no default of “it just goes to the US cloud”, no training on your data and strictly separated tenants.
On-premise
Fully in your own data centre – for the highest sovereignty needs and regulated environments.
Hybrid
Sensitive data local, compute in the EU cloud – the balance of control and scale.
EU cloud (SaaS)
Quickly ready in an EU data centre – no own infrastructure, no US cloud.

Features
From prompt to process – without developers.
Instead of rephrasing every time, your team builds a workflow once and everyone uses it. Fill in a form, read in a document, search a knowledge source, have the result checked, approve – clicked together in a visual editor.

ComplianceMore on compliance & data protection
AI that already speaks the AI Act.
Habicht automatically classifies every AI use case by EU AI Act risk class and produces an exportable compliance documentation – aligned to the AI Act, GDPR, NIS2 and CRA. You prove conformity without piecing it together after the fact.
- Risk class automaticallyEvery app and AI endpoint is classified transparently, with traceable reasoning.
- Audit evidence at the push of a buttonOne compliance documentation (PDF/Word) per version, ready for internal review and auditors.
- Gap-free loggingEvery AI action is traceable, retained for 7 years; every result carries a transparency marker.
- Data-subject rights, self-serviceAccess, export and deletion under GDPR are integrated, not manual work.
Annex VII fields for technical documentation, an SBOM snapshot per release, transactional deletion cascades across all data stores, breach notification within 72h, and a NIS2/CRA-compliant supply chain with signed container images.

Knowledge with sources
Answers with sources – not out of thin air.
Habicht works with your own documents and shows, for every answer, what it is based on – down to the right page in the PDF. Upload files (incl. automatic text recognition), connect websites and SharePoint/OneDrive, and control fine-grained who may see what – with a “who sees what” preview.
Every statement backed. No guesswork.

Why now
The right moment is now.
The EU AI Act applies in full from August 2026 – organisations need demonstrable AI compliance, not declarations of intent. At the same time, per Bitkom 78% of companies want less dependence on US cloud providers, and public bodies are urged to prefer open, European solutions. Habicht is built for exactly this environment.
