EU AI Act Transparency & Governance
Formal disclosure regarding AI system classification, formative learning purpose, absence of automated employment decisions, and our human review request protocol.
Formative Training Purpose
Dehurdle is an educational simulator for skill rehearsal. When used as intended, we assess it as outside the EU AI Act's high-risk employment categories.
No Automated HR Actions
Dehurdle scores are developmental metrics. Our Terms of Service prohibit using them as the sole or primary basis for disciplinary actions, terminations, or pay decisions (see GDPR Article 22).
Human Review on Request
Any employee or user can dispute an AI scorecard and request a review by a member of the Dehurdle team.
Classification Under EU Regulation 2024/1689 (EU AI Act)
The European Union Artificial Intelligence Act establishes transparency and governance requirements based on risk tiering. Here is how we assess Dehurdle against them:
Annex III(4) of the EU AI Act classifies as “high-risk” AI systems used for recruitment, selection, promotion, task allocation, or performance monitoring that directly impact employment status. Dehurdle is not designed or offered for these purposes, and our Terms of Service prohibit such use. Dehurdle is a formative practice tool where employees rehearse complex communication scenarios.
Simulations are presented as roleplay with an AI persona (Gemini Live). Every evaluation report states that scores, pacing analysis, and rationale are AI-generated and links to a human review request.
Our Terms of Service prohibit using Dehurdle scorecards and competency reports as the sole or primary basis for high-stakes employment decisions, including hiring, terminations, promotions, or performance-based disciplinary actions.
AI Models and Processing Pipeline
Here is the model architecture powering Dehurdle:
Gemini 2.5 Pro
Post-Interaction Evaluation & ScorecardsPerforms deep contextual reasoning across conversation transcripts to grade 5 targeted atomic competencies, identify key moments, and formulate constructive behavioral coaching tips.
Gemini Live API
Real-Time Conversational RoleplayPowers conversational AI personas responding in <300ms latency via bi-directional WebSockets, simulating real-world objections, direct Dutch communication, and emotional nuance.
Gemini 2.5 Flash
Speech Biometrics & TelemetryCalculates speaking pace (words per minute), filler word density (detecting Dutch disfluencies like 'zeg maar' and 'eigenlijk'), pause efficiency, and vocal conviction.
No Model Training on Your Data: Dehurdle runs these models on Google Cloud Vertex AI, whose service terms do not permit Google to use customer transcripts, audio, or simulation context to train its models.
Human Review & Appeal Protocol
Every employee and participating professional can request a human review of any AI scorecard generated on Dehurdle.
Initiate Request
Click “Request Human Review” at the bottom of any scorecard in the platform, or email reach@dehurdle.com with your Interaction ID.
