02 / In this sector

In a clinical AI workflow

Pennsylvania has no comprehensive or sector AI statute; its enacted AI-related laws are criminal: Act 125 of 2024 on AI-generated child sexual abuse material and intimate images, and Act 35 of 2025 creating the offence of digital forgery for deepfakes. Executive agencies operate under Governor Shapiro's 2023 executive order on generative AI, and no AI-specific act appears among 2026 enactments.

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.

01 · Your teamRecord the event

A disclosure shown, a review signed, a model change approved: the event your system reports.

02 · PlanisphereSeal it

The event becomes a sealed receipt, dated and attributed to whoever is signed in.

03 · AnyoneCheck it

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.
