EU AI Act readiness assessment

Which of Article 50's five paragraphs reach your systems, whether each duty is yours as provider or as deployer, and what the disclosure has to look like in the interface.

Who this is for

A provider or deployer of an AI system that interacts with people in the EU or generates synthetic content, which is where the Article 50 transparency duties land.

Thirty minutes with the engineer who would run the work, before any paperwork.

How it runs

The work, stage by stage

In order, with what happens at each stage and what it produces. The timings are the ones the catalog prices, not an estimate written for this page.

  1. Name the systems and your role

    Day 1

    Which systems are in scope, and for each one whether you are its provider or its deployer. Article 50 puts different duties on each, and one organization is commonly both across different systems, so a single answer for the whole company is the usual mistake.

  2. Map each system paragraph by paragraph

    Day 2

    Every system scored against all five paragraphs rather than given one verdict, because 50(1) and 50(2) are provider duties while 50(3) and 50(4) fall on the deployer. Our free triage tool runs the same map; this engagement runs it on your real systems with the answers checked rather than self-reported.

  3. Test the carve-outs and the limits

    Day 3

    The assistive-editing limit in 50(2). In 50(4), the artistic, creative, satirical or fictional case, which reduces the obligation to disclosing the existence of generated content rather than removing it, and the editorial-responsibility carve-out, which attaches only to the text limb and does not reach deepfake image, audio or video.

  4. Fix the applicable date per duty

    Day 4

    Four of the five paragraphs applied from 2 August 2026 with no transition. The 50(2) marking duty reaches 2 December 2026 only for providers of synthetic-content systems already placed on the EU market before 2 August 2026; a system placed on the market on or after that date carried the duty from the day it was placed there.

  5. Write the disclosure and the gap list

    Day 5

    What each engaged duty requires in the interface itself, what is already satisfied, and what is missing, with an owner against each gap.

What you receive

Everything that arrives, listed

The contents of the document, and the artifacts that come with it. If something here would not be useful to you, say so before we start and the scope changes.

  • A per-system map across all five paragraphs, each marked engaged, reduced, not engaged or undetermined, with the reasoning recorded
  • The duty holder for each engaged paragraph, provider or deployer, stated per system rather than per company
  • The applicable date for each engaged duty, with the transition case called out where it applies to you
  • The disclosure wording and placement each engaged duty calls for, written against your actual interface rather than in the abstract
  • The list of paragraphs you already satisfy, which on most systems is most of them
  • A scope line stating that this covers the Article 50 transparency duties, so a later reader knows which part of the Regulation was examined
Scope

What this covers, and who takes the rest

Stated up front, because scope is what derails an engagement in week two rather than at the proposal.

Inside this engagement

  • Every system in the agreed inventory, scored against all five paragraphs
  • Your role per system, provider or deployer, which is what determines whose duty it is
  • The interface, since an Article 50 duty is discharged in what the user is shown

Handled separately

Named so you can plan and budget for it, whether we do it or somebody else does.

  • The high-risk conformity regime, which is a different assessment on a different timetable
  • Legal advice on the Regulation, which comes from qualified counsel in your jurisdiction
Start here

Start with a call, not a proposal.

Thirty minutes, straight to the engineer who would run the work. We will tell you if a smaller engagement answers your question, or if nothing here does.
