Colorado AI Act Indicators
Colorado SB 21-169 (enforcement June 2026) requires deployers of AI systems to disclose when consumers are interacting with AI. SaaSalyst checks whether your website includes Colorado AI Act transparency indicators.
What SaaSalyst Checks
SaaSalyst scans your page HTML for Colorado AI Act-related disclosure language. The scanner looks for indicators of AI interaction disclosure, automated decision-making notices, and Colorado-specific compliance language.
Why This Matters
Colorado was the first US state to enact comprehensive AI transparency legislation. SB 21-169 requires developers and deployers of high-risk AI systems to use reasonable care to avoid algorithmic discrimination and to disclose AI decision-making to consumers.
If your SaaS product uses AI features that affect consumers in consequential decisions — employment, credit, housing, education — the Colorado AI Act may require disclosure.
Early compliance with state AI laws positions your product as trustworthy and reduces regulatory risk as similar laws are enacted in other states.
How to Fix It
- Review your product's AI features against the Colorado AI Act's definition of 'high-risk AI system' (Article 17 of SB 21-169).
- If applicable, add disclosure language informing Colorado consumers when they interact with AI-driven decision systems.
- Document your AI risk management policy and make it accessible from your privacy policy or a dedicated AI transparency page.
- Monitor the Colorado Attorney General's guidance as enforcement begins in June 2026.
