Hurraay is built for the EU AI Act. Recruiting AI counts as high-risk under Annex III, and those obligations apply from 2 December 2027. We build for them from day one. Already today: candidates always know they are talking to an AI. We score only the transcript, never the voice: no voice biometrics, no emotion recognition. A human confirms every rejection. Candidate data stays in the EU.
