Check interaction and content disclosures

Transparency duties for AI interaction, generated content and deepfakes apply from 2nd August 2026, subject to scope, role and statutory exceptions.

Evidence

Establish owners and evidence

Name an owner for each applicable duty and record the evidence that shows how it is met, before a customer, auditor or regulator asks for it.

2nd December 2026: Article 50(2) marking and detection applies to providers of relevant synthetic-content-generating systems. It applies from 2nd August 2026, except that the legacy transition for relevant systems placed on the market before 2nd August 2026 ends on 2nd December 2026, when the duty applies to them. Systems placed on the market on or after 2nd August 2026 follow the 2nd August 2026 date. Prohibitions on non-consensual intimate content and CSAM also apply from 2nd December 2026. Scope and transition conditions decide what applies to your system. Official timeline.

I've spent 15+ years helping enterprises navigate digital transformation. I built this tool because I saw every company struggling with the same AI governance questions — and the only alternatives were free blog posts or £50,000 consultants. This tool uses AI to analyse your systems against the Act's requirements, giving you enterprise-grade compliance insights at a fraction of the cost.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

No. This tool provides an provisional compliance readiness assessment to help you understand your obligations under the EU AI Act. It is not legal advice and should not be treated as such. We strongly recommend consulting qualified legal counsel for definitive compliance decisions.

Any company that develops, deploys, or distributes AI systems within the EU market — regardless of where the company is headquartered. If your AI system affects people in the EU, the Act applies to you.

Local assessments run in your browser. Every plan shows prohibitions, unresolved facts, applicable duties and required actions. Cloud storage requires an account and an available allowance. Readiness is not proof of compliance.

The questionnaire takes approximately 15 minutes to complete. You'll have your compliance readiness report immediately after submission. The more detail you provide, the more accurate your results will be.

Reports are available as interactive online dashboards with drill-down capability. Professional plan users can also export reports as branded PDF documents, perfect for sharing with leadership, regulators, or auditors.

Yes! The Professional plan includes access for up to 5 team members. Each team member can run assessments, view reports, and collaborate on action plans. Need more seats? Contact us for enterprise pricing.

Article 5 prohibitions on unacceptable-risk AI practices have applied since 2nd February 2025. Article 50 transparency duties for AI interaction, generated content and deepfakes apply from 2nd August 2026, subject to scope, role and statutory exceptions. The assessment reports the duties that apply to your system now, alongside later high-risk milestones such as Annex III from 2nd December 2027 and Annex I from 2nd August 2028.

Article 50(2) marking and detection applies to providers of relevant synthetic-content-generating systems. It applies from 2nd August 2026, except that the legacy transition for relevant systems placed on the market before 2nd August 2026 ends on 2nd December 2026, when the duty applies to them. Systems placed on the market on or after 2nd August 2026 follow the 2nd August 2026 date. Prohibitions on non-consensual intimate content and CSAM also apply from 2nd December 2026. The dates alone do not decide your position: scope, role and transition conditions do. Article 50(2) therefore applies to relevant synthetic-content-generating systems, not to every AI system.

Traditional AI governance consultants charge £15,000–£50,000+ per system assessment and take weeks to deliver. Our tool provides immediate, comprehensive assessments for a fraction of the cost. For organisations needing human expert review, our AI Strategy Review tier offers a personal review by Cyril Coste at a fraction of typical consulting fees.
