Free Global AI Regulatory Applicability Matrix
One row per jurisdiction you sell into or operate in: which AI instruments apply, in what role, from when, who supervises, and what evidence each expects.
What it is for
Multinational teams fail audits not because they ignore rules but because nobody wrote down which rules apply where. This matrix turns the jurisdiction pages on this site into an internal register: for every market, the instruments in force or coming, your role under each, the application dates, the supervising authority, the evidence artefacts expected and the owner. Fill it from the jurisdiction pages and update it from the weekly digest.
