What AI Law Tracker is, and why it exists
AI Law Tracker is an independent knowledge hub for understanding AI laws, regulations, and policy developments across US states, the EU, and other jurisdictions. We write plain-English explanations of rules that are otherwise scattered across statutes, agency guidance, court filings, and press releases.
Why this site exists
AI regulation is fragmented and moving fast. A company using AI in hiring might need to think about Illinois AIVIA, New York City Local Law 144, Colorado SB24-205, the EU AI Act, and a dozen state privacy statutes — and the rules keep changing. Most of the existing coverage lives behind law firm paywalls, inside dense government PDFs, or buried in news articles that go stale within weeks.
We built AI Law Tracker to be the opposite of that: a searchable, practical reference that a founder, developer, compliance lead, or curious reader can actually use without a legal background.
What you'll find here
- State-by-state breakdowns of AI laws across all 50 US states
- Industry guidance for sectors like healthcare, finance, HR, insurance, and SaaS
- International coverage of the EU AI Act and other global frameworks
- Side-by-side comparisons of how different jurisdictions approach the same issue
- Checklists, deadline trackers, and penalty summaries written in plain English
- A free compliance self-assessment for businesses that want a starting point
Who this is for
Founders and operators who need to know which AI rules apply to their product. Developers and product managers shipping features that touch regulated areas. In-house compliance, legal, and risk teams doing a first pass before going to outside counsel. Policy followers, researchers, journalists, and anyone trying to keep up with how governments are responding to AI.
Our editorial stance
We aim to be accurate, neutral, and up to date. We cite primary sources — statutes, bill text, and agency guidance — wherever we reasonably can. When the law is ambiguous or still being litigated, we say so rather than pretending there's a clean answer. If we get something wrong, we fix it and note the correction.
Who writes this & how
AI Law Tracker is written and edited by its editorial team — a small, independent group focused on audited, primary-sourced AI-regulation data. AI Law Tracker is not a law firm and does not present itself as one. The site covers AI legislation across all 51 US jurisdictions, the EU AI Act, and an expanding set of global frameworks (UK, Canada, Brazil, Australia, Japan, Singapore, South Korea). Its authority comes not from a credential but from linking every page to its primary government source, a transparent method, and a clear "information, not legal advice" stance. See the full methodology.
How we research
- Primary sources first. Every state and country page is anchored to the underlying statute, bill text, or agency rule — not to secondary press coverage.
- Sources we monitor: the Federal Register, state legislative trackers, state Attorney General offices, the EU Official Journal, Eur-Lex, EDPB guidance, OECD AI policy observatory, and the official press releases of each enacting agency.
- Cross-checks: bill status is confirmed against the originating legislature's tracker (e.g., LegInfo.CA for California, NYS Assembly portal for New York, etc.).
- Date stamps: every law page shows a Last verified date sourced from when we last opened the underlying statute and confirmed the snapshot is still current.
How we handle corrections
If a page is wrong — outdated penalty figure, mis-stated deadline, mis-classified status — we fix it and re-stamp the verification date. Send corrections via the contact page.
What this site is not
It is not legal advice and does not establish an attorney-client relationship. Use it as a starting point — then talk to qualified counsel before relying on any specific compliance decision.
How we stay current
AI regulation changes constantly — new bills are introduced weekly, agencies publish guidance with little warning, and court rulings can reshape enforcement overnight. We monitor legislative trackers, agency feeds, and primary sources continuously and update pages when the law moves. Every page shows its last-updated date so you can judge whether the information is current for your purposes.
Ownership & funding
AI Law Tracker is an independent project, built and maintained by a small team with no law firm, government, or vendor affiliation. The site is funded by contextual advertising — no sponsor influences which laws we cover or how we describe them. All content stays free.
