Built for the EU AI Act.
Local-language candidates.
The EU AI Act classifies hiring AI as high-risk. As of February 2026 the rules apply to any provider serving EU candidates. Picked is classified high-risk and built to the conformity requirements: documentation, transparency, human oversight, post-deployment monitoring. Candidate-facing screens and interviews run in 25-plus languages. Data lives in the EU.

What you said, last quarter
Three things european union leaders told us.
Mon 11:00
"The EU AI Act took effect in February. Half the vendors we evaluated are still 'updating our conformity assessment'. Our works council will not sign off until they finish."
· Head of people · German Series B SaaS, 220 people
Wed 09:45
"We hire across five countries. The hiring tool runs in English. Candidates in Lyon, Madrid, and Milan get a worse experience than candidates in London. That is a brand problem."
· Talent director · Pan-EU fintech, 340 people
Thu 15:30
"Local labour law in the Netherlands, France, and Germany differs on what an automated decision system can do without human review. The vendor said 'we are compliant'. We asked which jurisdiction. Silence."
· Compliance lead · DACH-based platform, 180 people
How Picked addresses each
Three answers. One pipeline.
EU AI Act conformity, documented and published.
We are classified high-risk under Annex III. Our conformity assessment, technical documentation, risk management process, post-deployment monitoring, and the human-oversight surface are documented on the trust hub. The right to a human alternative is a product feature, not a footnote, in every jurisdiction.
↓ Compliance
Candidate experience in 25-plus languages, native-tone.
The screen, the assessment, and the first-round interview run in the candidate's language. Not transliteration: the voice, the phrasing, the cultural calibration of behavioural questions is per-language. A candidate in Madrid has the same experience as a candidate in London, in Spanish.
↓ Candidate experience
Jurisdiction-aware compliance configuration.
Per-country compliance settings: GDPR Article 22 in every member state, local labour law in DACH and Benelux, French AI labour rules, the Dutch DPIA template. The settings are visible per role, audited per decision, exportable for the works council or the regulator on request.

From the beta
"Our works council blocked three vendors before Picked. The conformity documentation was already on the website. The DPIA template was already done. We signed in two weeks instead of the usual three months."
