I built this because tracking AI regulation by hand stopped being possible. The EU's Digital Omnibus just reshuffled the AI Act, and it's easy to confuse the headline with what's actually in force — e.g. the Article 50 transparency duties still land on 2 August 2026 even after the reshuffle.

What it is: one API covering AI law across 50 US states + DC + federal + EU + other jurisdictions, refreshed daily. Each record carries provenance and an official source URL. The interpreted layer (obligations, penalties, effective dates) is human-audited and sourced — not LLM-generated — because a hallucinated compliance deadline is worse than no answer.

There's also an MCP connector (24 tools) so you can query laws, obligations, penalties and deadlines directly inside Claude, ChatGPT or your own agent.

You can try it without a card: grab a free API key at ai-law-tracker.com/developers#get-key, or see the live Omnibus breakdown at ai-law-tracker.com/omnibus.

Two things I'd genuinely like feedback on: 1. The accuracy model — every record is checkable via a public accuracy ledger, and there's a bug bounty for wrong data. Does that go far enough to trust it under your product? 2. The MCP tool design — are 24 tools too granular, or is that the right shape for an agent to reason over regulation?

Happy to answer anything about the data pipeline or how records are verified.

Recently whenever I see something that's vibecoded and I see nobody taking personal responsibility for it: company entity, linkedin profile links - I leave immediately - it's not worth spending my time if the author was not willing to put their reputation at stake.

I guess this is a universal method. In the time when we can have 100 pages vibecoded in an hour by agents, how do we decide which are actually worth human time?

The agent doesn't feel a notion of cost or time, for them producing slop is free. For us humans, reading slop is at cost of cognitive overload.
