EU AI Act

Consensus provides a search and summarization interface over academic databases; while it utilizes LLMs, it does not currently disclose specific compliance measures related to the EU AI Act.

Sources

Everything above rests on a single document. That is not the same evidence as two independent documents agreeing. If the vendor moves or rewrites that page, the whole profile goes with it — treat these claims as uncorroborated and check them yourself before relying on them.

• https://consensus.app/privacy-policy
• https://consensus.app/terms/link no longer resolves

Every fact above is drawn from the vendor's public documentation, reviewed by a human, and version-stamped. Monitored daily for changes. 1 of these 2 links no longer resolve. We record what we relied on rather than deleting it, so the trail stays auditable — but a struck-through source cannot be re-checked today.
