📄 Description

Summary

Open WebUI is the interface between AI models and users. For organizations deploying it within EU jurisdiction, the AI Act's deployer obligations apply regardless of Open WebUI's open-source exemption under Article 25(4).

This guide maps the most relevant obligations to Open WebUI's existing features:

Article 50 (User Disclosure): the primary obligation for any chat interface deployment. Open WebUI's model labels partially satisfy this; the guide covers what else deployers may need.
Article 12 (Record-Keeping): Open WebUI's chat history provides a baseline. The guide specifies what retention policies deployers should verify.
Article 13 (Transparency): what deployers should document about available models, RAG sources, and tools.
Article 26 (High-Risk Use): when connecting Open WebUI to domain-specific knowledge bases can elevate deployers to provider-equivalent status.

Placed in docs/ alongside existing project documentation.

Test plan

Verify markdown renders correctly on GitHub
Confirm Article references match the EU AI Act as published in the Official Journal (Regulation 2024/1689)
Review that guidance aligns with Open WebUI's current feature set (model labels, chat history, RAG, tools)
