Audact coverage
Transparency-report feeds, content provenance (C2PA), trader traceability hooks.
How Audact covers the DSA
- Machine-readable transparency feed (Article 15) summarising AI-mediated interaction volumes and moderation outcomes
- C2PA content credentials on synthetic audio output — provenance preserved into AI Act §50.2 territory
- Trader traceability data (Article 30) where the deployment is a B2C marketplace use case
- Notice-and-action audit trail wired to the same evidence chain as Article 50 disclosure attestation
One evidence chain covers DSA transparency obligations, AI Act Article 50, and GDPR audit needs simultaneously — no parallel logging pipelines.
