Built for the 2026 Shift
The California AI Compliance Checker is an independent, free resource dedicated to ensuring transparency in digital medicine.
Our Mission: Why This is Free
In 2025, the California legislature passed a series of bills that fundamentally changed the relationship between healthcare providers and artificial intelligence. AB 489 and AB 3030 were designed to protect patients, but they also created a massive compliance burden for health-tech startups and independent practitioners.
We noticed that high-end legal consultants were charging thousands of dollars for simple compliance checklists. We believe that compliance should be a baseline, not a luxury.
This tool was built to provide an immediate, data-driven assessment of your AI implementation's legal standing. Beyond the calculator, we now offer free AB 3030 Disclosure Generators and AB 2013 Training Data Summarizers to help you automate the paperwork required for 2026. By keeping these resources free, we hope to accelerate the adoption of ethical, transparent AI across the entire California healthcare ecosystem.
How the Engine Works
The checker doesn't just ask questions; it weighs your responses against the specific statutory language of the California Business and Professions Code.
- Weighting: Questions regarding “Clinical Camouflage” (AB 489) carry higher critical point values than administrative logging.
- Semantic Mapping: We map your operational practices to the “Immediate Disclosure” requirements of the 2026 mandates.
- Dynamic Reporting: Our algorithms generate tailored advice based on whether you are a provider, a developer, or a health system administrator.
Our Methodology & Data Sources
The compliance checker maps user answers against the specific statutory language of AB 489 (Business and Professions Code §2290.5), AB 3030 (Health and Safety Code §1339.79), SB 942, and AB 2013. Each question in the audit is tied directly to a defined obligation or prohibition within those statutes.
Our primary data sources include California Legislative Information (leginfo.legislature.ca.gov), Medical Board of California published guidance, California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA) rulemaking documents, and California Attorney General advisories on AI transparency.
Content on this site is reviewed and updated whenever the California legislature publishes enrolled amendments to the covered bills, or when a relevant regulatory agency — including the Medical Board of California, CPPA, or Department of Managed Health Care — issues new interpretive guidance.
- Educational Purpose: All content is educational and does not constitute legal advice. For formal compliance certification or representation, consult a licensed California healthcare attorney.
- Self-Assessment Tool: The compliance score produced by this checker is a self-assessment educational result, not a legal determination or regulatory finding.
- No Attorney-Client Relationship: Use of this tool does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and any person or entity associated with this site.
