EU AI Act Ready vs TablePress – Tables in WordPress made easy

EU AI Act Ready is a practical WordPress compliance plugin that helps site owners meet the transparency and disclosure obligations introduced by the EU AI Act. It provides everything you need to disclose AI-generated content, AI-powered chatbots, and AI systems to visitors – and to track and document your compliance progress through a readiness score, self-assessment wizard, and exportable compliance report. The EU AI Act is now in force. Article 50 requires disclosure when users interact with AI systems, AI-generated content, or AI-manipulated media. Article 4 requires deployers of AI systems to take steps to ensure that staff have sufficient AI literacy. EU AI Act Ready addresses both articles with practical, locally-running WordPress tools. No content or personal data is sent to external services. EU AI Act Ready is a technical transparency tool. It does not provide legal advice or guarantee regulatory compliance. EU AI Act Articles Covered Article 50 – Transparency obligations Article 50 requires clear disclosure when users interact with AI systems or AI-generated content. Specifically: Chatbots and virtual assistants must inform users they are interacting with an AI, not a human. AI-generated or AI-manipulated content – including text, images, audio, and video – must be labelled. Content that could be mistaken for authentic human-created material requires clear disclosure. EU AI Act Ready supports these requirements through configurable visitor notices for AI content, AI-powered chatbots, and AI systems detected on your site. Article 4 – AI Literacy obligations Article 4 requires deployers of AI systems to take reasonable steps to ensure that their staff have sufficient AI literacy – understanding what AI tools are in use, their capabilities, their limitations, and how to raise concerns. The AI Literacy checklist in EU AI Act Ready lets you track whether your organisation has addressed these obligations. Final responsibility for assessing and meeting legal obligations remains with the site owner or their legal counsel.
