EU AI Act Article 50 self-assessment toolkit
Work out whether Article 50 binds your systems, and what it obliges if it does.
What you get
- Classification worksheet, one row per system
- Obligation checklist mapped to the Article that creates each duty
- Disclosure-language templates you can adapt
- Evidence log for the records the Act assumes you keep
- Cross-jurisdiction annex: EU, China, India, US and UK
Three ways to tell whether this applies to you.
If none of these describes your situation, this is the wrong product, and the catalog has nine others.
- You build, sell or deploy an AI system that reaches people in the EU
- You need a defensible answer to which Article 50 paragraphs apply to you, per system
- You would rather work it out on a worksheet than in a meeting with counsel
The file, before you buy it
Read from the artifact itself rather than described, so what is printed here and what arrives cannot drift apart.
- Classification worksheet
- Obligation checklist
- Disclosure-language templates
- Evidence log
- Sources, and what to re-check

5 sections, in the same download.
- The shape of the problem
- One screen
- Jurisdiction by jurisdiction
- What to build once
- Sources, and the honest status of each figure
The logic, enumerated
Every number below is computed from the decision logic at build time, so the figure cannot drift from the thing it describes.
Read the table down: each question's answers multiply the ones above it, so the right-hand column ends at the size of the whole space. The track beside it steps by one FACTOR per row rather than by a share of the total, which is why row one is visible at all. Most findings are "not engaged": 57.6% of the 138,240 findings. That is the useful result for most readers, and the toolkit says so rather than manufacturing an obligation.
SourceEnumerated exhaustively at build time from lib/article-50.ts, the same module behind the free Article 50 tool. The decision logic is additionally swept by scripts/decision-logic.mjs on every CI run.
Delivery and license
Stated here rather than in the terms, because these are the questions asked before a purchase and not after it.
- Delivery
- Immediate download.
- License
- Single organization, internal use, perpetual. Adapt it for your own systems freely. Do not resell it or publish it as your own.
What it is not
- Not a legal opinion, and not a substitute for counsel
- Does not cover high-risk classification under Annex III

What usually goes with this
Each of these does something this one does not, and the line under it says what. They are separate items, not an upsell path.
AI system inventory template
The toolkit produces a classification decision per system. The inventory is where those decisions and the evidence behind them live, once there are more than a handful of them.
$99
Transparency disclosure pack
The toolkit decides whether you owe a disclosure. The pack is the wording you publish once it says you do.
$249
Article 50 readiness report
The same classification, worked out by us from a questionnaire you fill in, rather than by you on a worksheet.
$890
Before you ask
These are the same strings this page puts in its structured data, so a person and an answer engine read identical text.
Can I buy this today?
Yes. It is $149, one payment, in USD, and the file downloads as soon as the payment clears.
What does buying this actually get us?
A way to work out where you stand and to evidence it. Compliance is a property of your systems and your records rather than of a document, so this gives you the structure to establish both, and the output is written to be handed to whoever reviews it.
Who issues the certificate for a standard like ISO/IEC 42001?
The certificate comes from an accredited certification body, after its own audit that you commission directly. What MetaMinds does is gap assessment, readiness, control design and evidence preparation, which is the work that audit then examines.
What if I want the work done rather than the file?
The fixed-scope engagements on the services page cover the same ground with a person doing the work, at a published price and a fixed duration. Those are available now: a vendor AI assessment at $2,500 over three days is the smallest, an EU AI Act readiness assessment is $4,900 over one week, and an ISO/IEC 42001 gap assessment is $8,900 over two to three weeks.
What exactly is EU AI Act Article 50 self-assessment toolkit?
Work out whether Article 50 binds your systems, and what it obliges if it does. It is a Tier 1 instant product from MetaMinds, listed at $149 in USD as a single payment. Tier 1 is the entry rung of a three-tier catalog: instant products from $99 to $890, fixed-scope engagements from $2,500 to $8,900, and scoped builds from $18,000.
What happens after I pay?
The download link and your invoice are emailed to you immediately, and the link stays good for 30 days and up to 20 downloads. Because a file you have already downloaded cannot be returned, the checkout asks you to confirm before paying that downloading ends your 14-day right to withdraw. That is Article 16(m) of the Consumer Rights Directive, and it is why the box is there and why it starts unticked.
It downloads the moment you pay.
No call, no scoping, no waiting. If you would rather a person did this work, the engagements on the services page cover the same ground at a fixed price and a fixed duration.
