Coverage crosswalk

The EU AI Act to NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0) crosswalk

The table above lists candidate mappings. A crosswalk answers the narrower question you are probably here for: which NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0) controls your existing EU AI Act work already satisfies, which are real gaps, and the reasoning behind every claim so you can check it. One pair, $299, one time.

Coverage does not run both ways. EU AI Act into NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0) lands at 66.7%, while NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0) into EU AI Act lands at 25.6%, on the same two control sets. That is not a rounding difference. It is the whole reason these are two separate reports: one asks what your EU AI Act evidence buys you for NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0), the other asks the reverse.

  • Every gap, with what it requires
  • Its level of review stated plainly, not a bare number

Why this page shows two different percentages. The 56% in the header counts how many EU AI Act controls carry at least one candidate mapping in the graph, before any review. The crosswalk percentage counts something stricter: how many NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0) controls are actually evidenced, after a pass that argued against each mapping and kept only what survived. They answer different questions and they are not meant to agree.

A crosswalk narrows the work. It does not replace an audit, and your assessor may take a different view on individual controls. Mappings between frameworks are judgements, not text printed in either standard, which is why every claim in the report shows its reasoning. Questions go to support@theartofservice.com.
