02 / In this sector

In a tutor and grader workflow

Vermont has overseen AI in state government since 2022 through a Division of Artificial Intelligence, an automated decision system inventory and an AI Advisory Council, now extended to 2030. In 2026 it enacted an election synthetic-media disclosure law, a ban on AI-only mental health services offered to the public, and a neurological-rights act, while a broad bill on inherently dangerous AI systems (H.341) did not pass.

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.
