Jawnie – AI Disclosure for Chatbots & AI Images

Since August 2, 2026, Article 50 of the EU AI Act requires websites to tell visitors when they are interacting with an AI system, and to label AI-generated or AI-manipulated images that could appear authentic. Fines can reach €15M or 3% of worldwide turnover.

This plugin handles the two obligations most WordPress sites actually have:

1. Chatbot disclosure (Art. 50(1))

• Detects AI chatbots automatically — plugin-based (AI Engine, MxChat, Kognetiks) and embedded widgets (Tidio, Chatbase, Intercom, Crisp, HubSpot, Tawk.to, LiveChat, Botpress, Voiceflow)
• Attaches a clear, accessible “You are interacting with an AI chatbot” notice directly to the chat window — at first interaction, as the Commission’s July 2026 guidance expects, not buried in your terms
• Deep AI Engine integration: the disclosure also becomes part of the bot’s own greeting
• Custom CSS selectors for widgets we don’t know yet
• Fully translatable disclosure text (English, Polish, German included)

2. AI image labels (Art. 50(4))

• Auto-detects AI-generated images on upload by reading C2PA manifests, IPTC digitalSourceType and generator metadata (DALL-E, Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, Firefly and others)
• One checkbox in the Media Library to flag or unflag any image manually
• Visible badge on labeled images (corner badge or full-width bar)
• Machine-readable markup: schema.org ImageObject JSON-LD with IPTC digitalSourceType, plus data attributes
