In a tutor and grader workflow
Ohio's only enacted AI-specific requirement is in the FY2026-27 budget (HB 96), which required a state model policy on AI in schools and local district AI policies by July 1, 2026. Bills on AI-generated sexual images and replica identity fraud (SB 163, passed the Senate), election deepfakes (HB 362), AI personhood (HB 469) and a 'right to compute' (HB 392) were still pending in the 136th General Assembly as of October 2026.

Optional evidence · where Planisphere fits
Keep a record anyone can check
When your team meets a duty, Planisphere can seal the event it reports as a receipt.
A disclosure shown, a review signed, a model change approved: the event your system reports.
The event becomes a sealed receipt, dated and attributed to whoever is signed in.
Paste the receipt into Verify. No account or key.
A record supports your compliance evidence process. It is not a legal finding or a certification. Systems that call Planisphere's gate API can also hold or refuse an action before it runs.
