When does Texas TRAIGA take effect?

01 ·

Answer.

Named jurisdictional law · Texas TRAIGA.

The Texas Responsible Artificial Intelligence Governance Act (HB 149, TRAIGA) takes effect 2026-01-01. It is one of the first state AI-governance laws to use an intent-based liability model rather than a mandatory impact-assessment regime. Planisphere measures AI behaviour that supports a governance and oversight posture; it does not determine your TRAIGA obligations or provide legal advice, and effective dates can shift, so confirm the current statute.

When Texas TRAIGA asks for proof, hand over records — not assurances.

record the duty · seal the receipt · verify offline

Planisphere records each duty event — an output marked, a disclosure shown, a review made — and seals it into a receipt that verifies offline against our published keys. You send hashes, never content. A record is evidence a third party can check; it is not a certification and not a legal determination.
