Three steps, no sign-up
Drop your content
An image straight from Midjourney, DALL·E or Firefly — or the AI-written text you're about to publish. It stays on your device.
Choose the disclosure
AI-generated or AI-modified, label style and placement, and the audience languages. Guard-rails keep every render legible and accessible.
Download & publish
A labelled image with embedded machine-readable metadata, or a copy-paste disclosure snippet. Done before your coffee cools.
Why this matters
Article 50 is no longer a future deadline.
It applies now.
2 Aug 2026
The transparency obligations of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 became applicable. AI-generated and manipulated content published in the EU must be marked and disclosed.
€15M / 3%
Maximum penalty for non-compliance: €15 million or 3% of worldwide annual turnover, whichever is higher.
Two duties
Providers must mark outputs machine-readably (Art. 50(2)); deployers must visibly disclose deepfakes and certain AI-written text (Art. 50(4)). This site helps with both.
One disclosure, 24 languages
Article 50(5) requires disclosures to be clear and distinguishable to the people who see them — which means their language. Our strings mirror the official EUR-Lex terminology of the AI Act in every official EU language.
Questions, answered
Do I have to label my AI content?+
If you generate or manipulate image, audio, video or text content with AI and publish it in the EU, Article 50 of the AI Act very likely applies to you — as a provider (machine-readable marking) or a deployer (visible disclosure for deepfakes and public-interest text). The obligation has applied since 2 August 2026, with penalties up to €15M or 3% of worldwide turnover.
Is this really free? What's the catch?+
Yes. The image label tool and the text disclosure guide are free, without an account. We are building a paid platform for teams that need bulk marking, C2PA signing, invisible watermarks and audit-ready evidence records — this free site is how we earn your trust first.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?+
No. Everything happens locally in your browser using the canvas API. Your images never leave your device — you can even use the tool offline once the page has loaded.
Is a visible label enough to be compliant?+
Not always. Providers must also mark outputs in a machine-readable format (our PNG downloads embed a machine-readable disclosure record), and full compliance may involve C2PA Content Credentials, invisible watermarking and evidence records. Treat this as a solid first step, not a complete programme.
Which label text should I use?+
Use wording that mirrors the Act's own phrase — “artificially generated or manipulated”. Our strings follow the official EUR-Lex terminology in each language: pick “AI-generated” for fully synthetic content and “AI-modified” for real content altered by AI.
