Disclosure

Are people told they are interacting with AI?

Direct interaction, existing awareness, the obvious-from-context question, notice timing, and accessibility.

What this checks

Direct interaction, existing awareness, the obvious-from-context question, notice timing, and accessibility.

Who should use this screen

Providers who put a system in front of a person.

Current dates

Article 50 applies from 2026-08-02. Marking transition for earlier systems ends 2026-12-02. Annex III high-risk Chapter III sections 1-3 starts 2027-12-02. Annex I high-risk starts 2028-08-02. Transparency and high-risk stay on separate tracks.

Official sources

Regulation (EU) 2024/1689, Regulation (EU) 2026/1744, Commission Guidelines of 20 July 2026, the Commission FAQ, and the transparency code of practice on EUR-Lex and the Commission site.

Limitations

Decision support only. No high-risk conformity assessment, CE marking, quality-system build, or fundamental-rights workflow is included.

How to read the result

A complete notice at first contact can show notice readiness.

The obvious-from-context box does not grant an exception. It sends the case to review.

A missing or late notice is an information gap.

Separate tracks

Transparency dates and high-risk dates are never mixed in the result.

Limits

Does this tool decide the legal exception?

No. Context that might make the AI obvious is left for specialist review.

What timing counts as ready?

The notice is marked ready only at first contact, when the person is told and the notice is accessible.
