It lets you query events, read a single event by id, and browse the topics and active data sources behind the feed. Webhook subscriptions deliver new updates as they are published, and a health endpoint reports pipeline status. It is an information service, not legal advice: it reports regulatory activity rather than certifying compliance. ## For AI agents Query EU AI Act regulatory events, browse topics and sources, and create webhook subscriptions that push new updates as they are published. ## Scope Does not provide legal advice, compliance certification, or regulatory filing. Use for monitoring EU AI Act regulatory updates through its event feed and webhooks only. ## Capabilities - Query EU AI Act regulatory events and read a single event by its id - List the available topics and the active data sources behind the feed - Create a webhook subscription to receive new AI Act updates - List and delete your webhook subscriptions - Check the data pipeline's health status ## Use cases ### Agent-Monitored AI Act Updates An AI agent connecting through Jentic can keep a compliance watch running: it queries events for new EU AI Act activity and reads any event in full by its id. Jentic injects the bearer token at call time and returns each operation's input schema, so the agent polls the feed without holding the credential in its prompt. Example prompt: Query the events endpoint for recent AI Act activity, then read any new event by its id and summarise it for the user ### Webhook Update Subscriptions Receive EU AI Act updates as they publish instead of polling. The AI Act Radar API creates a webhook subscription that delivers new events to your endpoint, and lists or deletes existing subscriptions so an agent can manage which updates it listens for across the available topics and sources. Example prompt: Create a webhook subscription for a chosen topic, then list subscriptions to confirm it is active ### Event Query and Lookup Pull and inspect specific regulatory events for a report. The AI Act Radar API queries events across topics and returns a single event by id, with the topics and sources endpoints describing what the feed covers, so an agent can assemble a grounded summary of recent EU AI Act activity with its sources named. Example prompt: List the available topics, query events for one topic, and read a selected event by its id for a briefing ## Key endpoints | Method | Path | Description | | --- | --- | --- | | GET | `/v1/events` | Query regulatory events | | GET | `/v1/events/{id}` | Read a single event by id | | GET | `/v1/topics` | List available topics | | GET | `/v1/sources` | List active data sources | | POST | `/v1/subscriptions` | Create a webhook subscription | | DELETE | `/v1/subscriptions/{id}` | Delete a subscription | | GET | `/v1/health` | Report pipeline health | ## Key resources - **Events** — Query EU AI Act regulatory events and read a single event by id - **Topics and sources** — List the topics the feed covers and the active data sources behind it - **Subscriptions** — Create, list, and delete webhook subscriptions for new updates - **Health** — Report the data pipeline's status ## AI readiness This API is usable in Jentic One now. Its AI-readiness score against Jentic's framework shows where it stands today and where improvements would make it even easier for agents to use. - **Score:** 40 / 100 - **Maturity:** Non-Ready - **Dimensions:** - Foundational Compliance: 67 / 100 - Developer Experience & Jentic Compatibility: 61 / 100 - AI-Readiness & Agent Experience: 17 / 100 - Agent Usability: 94 / 100 - Security: 60 / 100 - AI Discoverability: 63 / 100 - **View full report:** https://jentic.com/apis/aiactradar.com/aiactradar/scorecard - **How the score is calculated:** https://docs.jentic.com/reference/api-readiness-framework/overview/ - **More about the dimensions:** https://docs.jentic.com/reference/api-readiness-framework/specification/#dimensional-model-overview ### Score it yourself Every API in the directory is allowlisted, so you can re-score it with no key required. - **Score your own API:** https://jentic.com/scorecard.md - **Scoring CLI agent skill:** https://github.com/jentic/jentic-api-scorecard/blob/main/skills/jentic-api-scorecard/SKILL.md ```sh npx @jentic/api-scorecard-cli score ``` ## Why Jentic - **Setup:** Wiring the AI Act Radar API by hand means handling its bearer token issued at onboarding, tier-based rate limits, and webhook subscription wiring yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import AI Act Radar from the API Directory, store the token once, and your agent calls it. - **Permission scoping:** You choose which AI Act Radar operations your agent may call, so it can query events, topics, and sources while creating or deleting a subscription stays out unless you add it. Event and subscription ids travel in the URL path, so a rule can also pin reads to a single event. - **Credential handling:** Your AI Act Radar token is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context. - **Discovery method:** Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'query AI Act events' or 'subscribe to updates', and Jentic returns the matching AI Act Radar operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs. ## Related APIs - **ComplyAdvantage** — ComplyAdvantage monitors sanctions, watchlists, and compliance risk. - **NewsAPI** — NewsAPI returns news articles matching a query across many sources. - **OpenCorporates** — OpenCorporates returns company registration and regulatory data. ## FAQ ### What authentication does the AI Act Radar API use? The AI Act Radar API authenticates with a bearer token issued at customer onboarding per its OpenAPI spec. A few endpoints, such as pipeline health and the topic and source listings, need no token. Through Jentic the token is injected at call time rather than living in the agent's prompt or logs. ### Can I receive EU AI Act updates by webhook with the AI Act Radar API? Yes. You create a webhook subscription that delivers new events to your endpoint as they are published, and you can list your subscriptions or delete one to stop a soft-disabled feed. This is the push alternative to polling the events query endpoint. ### What are the rate limits for the AI Act Radar API? The spec notes that tier-based rate limits apply but does not publish the numbers. Check the AI Act Radar documentation at https://docs.aiactradar.com for the current limits for your tier before running a high-frequency poll. ### How do I monitor AI Act updates with the AI Act Radar API through Jentic? Search Jentic for 'query AI Act events' and it returns the events operation with its input schema. Your agent queries recent events, reads any event by its id, and can create a webhook subscription for new updates. To run it on your own infrastructure, install Jentic One from its GitHub repo. ### Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the AI Act Radar API? Yes. Write a rule that allows only the events, topics, and sources read operations, so the agent can monitor updates while creating or deleting a subscription stays out unless you add it, and every action it takes is logged. Because event and subscription ids appear in the URL path, a rule can also pin reads to a single event. ### Is there an AI Act Radar MCP server? You don't need an MCP server to give your agent the AI Act Radar API. Jentic connects it directly from the API Directory: import it, store your credential once, and your agent calls the events, topics, and subscription operations on demand without loading another server's tool definitions into its context.
