EUROPEAN UNION
EU AI Act
HIGH-RISK ENFORCEMENT: DEC 2027
€35M OR 7% OF GLOBAL TURNOVER
Tier-1 prohibitions already in force. Revenue-based penalties apply to any operator whose AI systems touch EU residents, regardless of where the operator sits.
The Global Patchwork
Explore the Jurisdictions
EU AI Act. US federal rules. Fifty state laws. No two are the same — and none of them wait. This is the regulatory landscape, and how RTFCT unifies compliance across it.
UNITED STATES · FEDERAL
Executive Order 14409
REVIEW WINDOW: JUN 2, 2026
PERMANENT FEDERAL RECORD
The "voluntary" 30-day federal review places model documentation into the permanent record. Absence of history becomes evidence of negligence.
COLORADO
SB 24-205
IN EFFECT
$20,000 PER VIOLATION · UNCAPPED
The first comprehensive US state AI law. Per-violation, uncapped exposure — a single high-risk decision can eclipse a full year of structural coverage.
CALIFORNIA
SB 942 / AB 2013
PHASED · 2026
PER-DAY CIVIL PENALTIES
Transparency and training-data disclosure obligations with escalating daily penalties for non-compliance.
ILLINOIS · TEXAS · UTAH
State AI & Biometric Statutes
STAGGERED EFFECTIVE DATES
INCOMPATIBLE DEFINITIONS
No two states define an "AI system", a "consequential decision", or a "deployer" the same way. There is no federal preemption to reconcile them.
THE PATCHWORK
50+ Overlapping Regimes
NO PREEMPTION
COMPOUNDING EXPOSURE
Every jurisdiction adds a new definition, a new anchor date, and a new penalty schedule. Policy documents cannot keep pace. Structure can.
One Structural Layer
RTFCT unifies the patchwork
ONE STRUCTURAL ANCHOR
RTFCT enforces controls at inference time, not on paper. A single interceptor layer satisfies the strictest common denominator across every regime.
1,095-DAY EVIDENCE LEDGER
Court-ready, cryptographically-signed records of every AI interaction — the retention floor that survives EU, federal, and state discovery alike.
JURISDICTION-AWARE POLICY
Versioned policy waves map each regulation to concrete enforcement rules, so a new state law is a configuration change, not a re-architecture.
