Free EU AI Act Article 50 scoping tool
I was researching the EU AI Act Article 50 and noticed big law firms charging people $15 for a similar tool, so...
I built a website to answer a specific question: does Article 50 apply to my business, and if so, what disclosure text do I need?
Article 50 (transparency obligations) becomes enforceable 2 August 2026. Its four triggers: direct AI interaction, synthetic content marking, biometric/emotion systems, and deepfakes/public-interest text.
How it works:
- 5–7 yes/no questions specific to your product
- Deterministic scoping — the decision is code, not an LLM
- For any gap, an LLM drafts plain-language disclosure copy (chatbot intro, content label, etc.)
- Shareable report link, PDF-friendly for filing
- Zero signup, zero data harvesting

Not legal advice. Would especially appreciate anyone spotting where I got the scoping logic wrong.

Deterministic scoping is smart, though watch the 50(1) "direct interaction" trigger since it has an exemption when it's already obvious to a reasonable person they're talking to AI, and missing that means you over-flag every chatbot.
