The public record of the honest web

Some pages say what they are. Be one of them.

Disclosed is the public record of how the web is made. A two-minute declaration says where AI shows up in your work — or that it doesn’t at all — on a page anyone can check. Honest sites sign it. Readers can finally stop guessing.

Using AI is fine. Hiding it isn’t.

This is not a purity test. It is a paper trail. Say what’s AI, what’s human, and let both count.

Unlabeled is the new suspicious

Readers now assume the worst about pages that say nothing. A declaration separates you from the slop in both directions: your human work gets believed, and your AI use reads as method, not secret.

Exposure costs more than disclosure

The research is blunt. Disclosing AI use costs a little trust; being exposed for hiding it costs far more (Schilke & Reimann, 2025). A page you published yourself is the cheap version of that story — and it's already on the record.

Disclosure is becoming table stakes

Steam already requires it — 17,000+ titles disclose AI-generated content. The EU AI Act puts transparency duties on AI providers from August 2026. Nobody is forcing your site yet. That's exactly why saying it now, unforced, is worth something.

For the human-made

Nothing to disclose
is something to declare.

Illustrators, photographers, writers, hand-built blogs: human-made is a claim, and claims need checks. A Human-made declaration is a dated, public page that says it plainly — no AI in the work published here — with a “Human-made, no AI” badge to match. Domain-verify it and the claim carries your site’s own name, not an anonymous promise.

Same wizard. Select nothing. Publish. Two minutes.

A claim is worth the check behind it.

Level 1

Self-attested

Anyone can go on the record. The page is public, dated, and labeled plainly as self-attested — which is already more than most of the web will say.

Level 2 · live

Domain-verified ✓

A confirmation link sent to an email at the site’s own domain proves who is speaking — the people who actually run the site, not a bystander. Live today; it takes one email.

Level 3 · early access

Content-checked

The scan engine behind the Disclosed extension reads published work and tests it against the declaration. Human-made claims get backing; quiet contradictions get flagged. Early access, through the extension waitlist.

On the record in two minutes

01

Answer plainly

Where AI shows up — text, images, audio, code, support, decisions — how much, and what a human reviews. If the answer is nowhere, that counts too. No account, no jargon.

02

Get your page

A standing public document at disclosed.com/d/you, plus a JSON record for machines and a badge for your footer. It reads like a record because it is one.

03

Link it once

Put the badge in your footer and you're done. When your process changes, edit the page — the record stays current everywhere it's linked. Your answer exists before the question does.

For people

A public page

A sober document: what uses AI, where, how much, and who reviews it. Dated, plain-language, signed with your name — built to be quoted, not to shout.

For machines

A JSON record at one stable URL

{
  "ai_usage": {
    "text_content": { "extent": "assisted" },
    "code": { "extent": "substantial" }
  },
  "ai_free": false,
  "domain_verified": true
}

For your footer

A badge that answers questions

One line of HTML linking to your page, so the claim is checkable at the source. Update the page once; every badge stays current.

For readers · the Disclosed extension

Read on your own terms.

The extension reads pages the way you wish you could: element by element, text and images, scored for AI-likelihood — then checked against the site’s own entry in the record. Does their story match?

  • A live AI-likelihood read on every text block and image
  • Record cross-check: what they disclosed against what the scan sees
  • Your line, your warnings — AI-free only, human-reviewed only, or simply honestly labeled

Early access

The Disclosed extension

The scanner in the hero is a working preview. The full extension is in early access — the waitlist is how you get it.

Invites go out in waves. One email when your spot opens, nothing else.

Questions, answered

Is this legally required?+

Mostly not, and we won't pretend otherwise. The EU AI Act's transparency rules (Article 50, enforceable August 2026) bind mainly AI providers; platforms like Steam set their own rules for their own stores. For a website, disclosure is voluntary. That is the point: a record you published unforced, before anyone asked, says more than a mandatory one ever could.

Won't disclosing AI use hurt my brand?+

Less than you'd think, and far less than the alternative. Published research (Schilke & Reimann, 2025) finds that disclosing AI use costs some trust — but being exposed by a third party for hiding it costs much more. And a disclosure isn't a confession: sugar is on the nutrition panel and people still buy cookies. You choose the wording and the level of detail.

What does it cost?+

Nothing. Publishing, hosting, and editing your page is free, with no account required. Paid conveniences for agencies and multi-site teams may come later. The record itself stays free.

I don't use AI at all. Is this for me?+

Especially for you. A Human-made declaration puts your no-AI claim on the record — a dated public page and a “Human-made, no AI” badge. Domain verification adds proof that the claim comes from whoever runs the site, and content checking (rolling out through the extension's early access) is built to back human-made claims with more than a promise. In a generated web, human-made is a distinction — but only if people can check it.

Is the disclosure verified?+

In levels, and each level is labeled. Every page starts self-attested. Domain verification is live today: confirm a link sent to an email at your site's own domain and your page is marked Domain-verified. Content checking — the scan engine testing published work against its declaration — is in early access through the extension waitlist.

What does “Domain-verified” actually prove?+

That the declaration comes from whoever controls the site, confirmed through an email address at the site's own domain. It proves who is speaking — not that every claim is true. That's what content checking is for, and it's why the levels are labeled separately instead of blurred into one checkmark.

What's the machine-readable version for?+

Every declaration is also published as a stable JSON record at a canonical URL. As AI-usage questionnaires standardize — procurement forms, app stores, marketplaces — you point systems at one address instead of filling in the same form again. It's also what reader tools like the Disclosed extension check against.

Can I use this to avoid AI content?+

That's the Disclosed extension. It scores how likely it is that what you're reading is AI-generated — element by element, text and images — and cross-checks the site's entry in the record to see whether the story matches. Set your own line: AI-free only, human-reviewed only, or just honestly labeled. It's in early access; join the waitlist and invites go out in waves.

What happens when my AI use changes?+

Edit the page. The badge and the JSON record point to the same document, so you update once and the record is current everywhere it's linked. A declaration is a living document, not a confession you're stuck with.

The record is open.

One page that says what your site is — AI-assisted, human-made, or somewhere honest in between. Two minutes now, and your answer exists before the question does. When someone asks, you point.
