EU AI Act readiness scanner
for SaaS chatbots and agents

Not automatically. The model lab is often the GPAI provider. If you place a chatbot or agent on the market and set its intended purpose, you may be the provider of that AI system. Article 50 can still sit with you. See actbrief.com/openai-saas-eu-ai-act. Confirm with counsel.

Those tools usually ask which APIs you use and stamp “deployer.” ActBrief scans your product URL and intended purpose, keeps Digital Omnibus dates current (Council 29 June 2026; Art. 50 in force 2 August 2026), and outputs a lawyer-handoff brief. Email is optional.

B2B AI SaaS with chatbots, agents, copilots, or generated content used in the EU/EEA. We help founders assemble Article 50 transparency evidence and a lawyer-handoff brief. We are not a generic AI Act checker, not a law firm, and not a tool for GPAI model labs.

Often yes if people in the EU interact with it — that is typically an Article 50 transparency question in force since 2 August 2026, not automatic high-risk. Scan the product, then confirm paragraph, role, and exceptions with counsel. See actbrief.com/eu-ai-act-for-chatbots.

No. ActBrief prepares a lawyer-ready and procurement-ready brief from the information you provide. It is a preliminary technical readiness scan — not a legal opinion, conformity assessment, or guarantee of compliance.

Reliable classification needs intended purpose, role (provider/deployer/etc.), material influence on decisions, and possible Art. 6(3) exceptions. A short form can only flag potential risk with confidence and missing facts — your lawyer confirms the rest.

You may still have obligations now — especially Article 50 transparency, in force since 2 August 2026. The scan separates what may apply now from Annex III high-risk duties deferred to 2 December 2027 (standalone) or 2 August 2028 (embedded products).

Maybe. Territorial scope depends on whether the system is placed on the EU market, put into service in the Union, or its output is used in the Union — and on your role. “Accessible from the EU” alone is not automatic proof of applicability. If you plan EU customers or enterprise diligence, preparing early is cheaper than scrambling later.

Official checkers help map applicable rules. ActBrief is built for SaaS teams that need an evidence pack and lawyer handoff: gap checklist, missing facts, draft documentation list, and questions that shorten billable intake — not a free commodity risk label.

Yes. That is the point. Export the brief with classification hypotheses, sources, effective dates, missing facts, and open legal questions so counsel or procurement starts from a structured file.

The full readiness report from the scanner is free today (on-page + PDF). The Article 50 Evidence Pack (€199 early access) adds product-specific scope mapping, disclosure drafts, placement notes, and an evidence checklist. It is not required to get the free report.

Article 12 logging is a legal requirement for high-risk systems. For other AI SaaS, logging and data-flow docs are recommended readiness practice (especially for enterprise diligence) — we label them that way in the brief so they are not confused with universal legal duties.

The free full readiness report is generated instantly after you submit the form. The Article 50 Evidence Pack is founder-reviewed during early access, so scope and next steps are confirmed by email.
