EU AI Act Compliance
My Verdana AI agent fully complies with EU AI Act Article 50 transparency requirements, providing clear AI disclosure, content marking, and user rights protection across 24 EU languages
Compliance Overview
What is the EU AI Act?
The EU AI Act is the world's first comprehensive AI law, establishing a risk-based framework for AI systems. Article 50 specifically requires transparency obligations for AI systems that interact directly with natural persons.
My Verdana AI Implementation
Verdana proactively implements Article 50 requirements with intelligent query classification, multilingual disclosure support, and comprehensive transparency measures. Our agent provides clear AI identification, detailed capability descriptions, and source attribution across all interactions.
Article 50 Requirements
Transparency Obligations (Article 50.1)
Requirement: "Providers shall ensure that AI systems intended to interact directly with natural persons are designed and developed in such a way that the natural persons concerned are informed that they are interacting with an AI system."
✅ Verdana Implementation: Users receive a comprehensive disclosure modal before first interaction in their detected language, explaining Verdana's capabilities, EU policy expertise, web verification features, and interaction requirements with explicit consent tracking.
Content Marking (Article 50.2)
Requirement: AI-generated content must be marked in a machine-readable format and detectable as artificially generated.
✅ Verdana Implementation: All AI responses include machine-readable markers, clear human-readable notices ("Generated by Verdana AI Agent"), source attribution with confidence scores, and structured metadata for AI content identification.
Information Provision (Article 50.5)
Requirement: Information must be provided "in a clear and distinguishable manner at the latest at the time of the first interaction or exposure."
✅ Verdana Implementation: Disclosure appears before any AI interaction with automatic language detection for 24 EU languages, voice accessibility via OpenAI Whisper, and comprehensive capability descriptions including RAG search and web verification.
