Does Maditon replace legal counsel?

Maditon is built to make a lawyer’s involvement cheaper and better targeted, not to remove it.

What it does well is the volume work: establishing which of your systems are in scope, which tier each falls into, which obligations that triggers, and assembling the documentation that proves it. That is most of the effort and almost none of the judgement.

What it does not do is decide a genuinely contested question for you. Where a classification sits on a boundary — an Article 6(3) carve-out argument, a system that could be read as either provider or deployer output, a use case the regulation did not anticipate — the software marks its own uncertainty and routes the result for expert review rather than presenting it as settled. That flag is the point at which counsel earns their fee.

The acceptance step exists for the same reason. When a person on your team accepts a determination, they are recorded as having accepted it. That is deliberate: the EU AI Act places obligations on organisations, not on their software vendors, and no tool can absorb that.
