Frequently Asked Questions

Yes — if your AI system is deployed in the EU or used by EU residents, the regulation applies regardless of where your company is incorporated. US, UK, Canadian, and Australian companies with EU market exposure are within scope. Where you are incorporated is irrelevant; where your users are located is what matters.

If your system is being used by EU users — even in beta, even for free — it has been "put into service" within the EU under Article 3(11). Compliance obligations attach to deployment, not revenue. A pre-revenue beta serving EU users is within scope.

Geo-blocking is a valid commercial decision, but it must be enforced at the infrastructure level — not just the UI. If EU users can access your product via VPN or a non-EU address, you have not removed yourself from scope. For most SaaS products, blocking the EU market is a significant commercial sacrifice relative to the cost of compliance.

Partially. If you use a third-party AI system without modifying it, your vendor (as provider) bears the Article 11, 13, and 47 obligations. But you, as the deployer, have separate obligations under Article 26 — including using the system per its Instructions for Use, implementing human oversight, and monitoring performance. Your vendor's compliance does not substitute for your Article 26 obligations.

August 2, 2026 is the Article 50 transparency deadline. Any chatbot or AI system interacting directly with EU users must disclose it is AI from this date. AI systems generating synthetic content (images, video, audio, text) for EU users must also implement content marking. This deadline was not changed by the Digital Omnibus.

December 2, 2027 is the deadline for standalone high-risk AI systems under Annex III to have Article 11 Technical Documentation, Article 13 Instructions for Use, and Article 47 Declaration of Conformity in place. This was extended from August 2, 2026 by the Digital Omnibus provisional agreement of May 2026.

No — only some. The Omnibus extended the Annex III high-risk deadline (to December 2, 2027) and the Annex I product safety deadline (to August 2, 2028). It did not change the Article 50 chatbot disclosure deadline, which remains August 2, 2026. It added a transitional period until December 2, 2026 only for existing systems implementing Article 50(2) synthetic content watermarking.

• Article 50 Compliance Record ($39) — If your product has a chatbot, AI assistant, or generates AI content for EU users. August 2, 2026 deadline.
• Article 6(3) Exemption Memo ($49) — If your system touches an Annex III category (hiring, credit, healthcare, etc.) but you believe it qualifies as non-high-risk. Documents your formal exemption determination.
• Full Compliance Pack ($197) — If your system is high-risk under Annex III. Covers Articles 11, 13, and 47. December 2, 2027 deadline.

Three documents delivered as a ZIP: Article 11 Technical Documentation (10 sections mapped to Annex IV), Article 13 Instructions for Use (7 subsections), and Article 47 Declaration of Conformity. Each document includes a source appendix citing the exact legal provisions it was built from, plus a compliance reference number for your records.

The form takes 10–20 minutes to complete depending on how much detail you provide. Document generation takes 3–8 minutes after payment. Your ZIP is delivered directly in the browser — no email, no account needed.

Yes — contact us at euaiactdocs@gmail.com with your Stripe receipt and we'll offer the upgrade for $148 (the difference between $49 and $197).

No. This tool generates structured documentation drafts based on your inputs. Every document is designed for attorney review and final sign-off — not to replace qualified legal counsel. We do not guarantee legal sufficiency for any specific jurisdiction or use case. Every document we produce states this clearly.

Under Article 18, providers must retain technical documentation for at least 10 years after the AI system has been placed on the market or put into service. This includes all versions as your system evolves. Consult legal counsel to confirm the retention period applicable to your specific system.

Generated documents reflect the obligations as understood at the time of generation. Regulatory interpretation of the EU AI Act is still developing — EU AI Office guidance, delegated acts, and national authority decisions will continue to refine requirements. You should review and update your documentation when material guidance changes occur. We notify customers of significant deadline or requirement changes via email.

Any issue with your generated documents? Contact us at euaiactdocs@gmail.com and we'll regenerate at no charge. If the issue is structural and we cannot resolve it, we'll refund you in full. Due to instant digital delivery of AI-generated content, we do not offer refunds for change of mind.

Your system details are sent to the Anthropic API for document generation only. Nothing is stored on our servers after your ZIP is delivered. Anthropic does not train on API data under their commercial policy. Payment is handled entirely by Stripe — we never see your card details.
