EUROCOMPLY: Enabling Zero-Touch AI Compliance Auditing via LLM-Based Agentic AI

In this article, we present EUROCOMPLY, a novel framework designed to automate regulatory compliance verification in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML) systems for the telecommunications sector. With the increasing adoption of AI/ML, ensuring adherence to the European AI Act (EU AI Act) and General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has become critical to avoid deployment delays and legal penalties. EUROCOMPLY leverages Agentic AI to inspect datasets and AI/ML pipelines for alignment with the EU AI Act, the GDPR, and the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) AI/ML-related standards. The framework employs a dual-mode retrieval architecture combining vector-based and graph-based retrieval for enhanced regulatory interpretation. We validate EUROCOMPLY on 20 telecom use cases across four realistic datasets, demonstrating high faithfulness and strong performance through expert assessments and LLM-as-a-Judge evaluations.
