EU AI Label

EU AI Label lets you flag images in your WordPress Media Library as AI generated or AI modified. Labeled images are wrapped on the front end with a clean badge overlay so visitors can see at a glance which visuals involved AI. Built for EU WooCommerce stores that want a simple, honest way to disclose AI-generated product imagery — no C2PA, no cryptography, no external services. Just a clear visual mark plus attachment metadata. Features

• Per-image labeling directly in the Media Library, for unlimited images.
• Three-state taxonomy: AI generated, AI modified, or No AI (no badge).
• Server-side-first rendering. Featured/gallery images, in-content images, Elementor AJAX widgets, and Media Library-backed static Elementor backgrounds are covered; lightweight helpers support dynamic/background and Pro tooltip behavior.
• An accessibility-first badge: always visible (no hover needed), high-contrast on any photo, role="img" with a screen-reader label, and a readable minimum size. The wording and pill shape mirror the EU standardized AI labels.
• Fully localized badge text — English, Polish, German, French, Spanish, Italian, and Dutch — following the site or user locale.

Labeling is manual and per-image by design: you stay in control of exactly what is disclosed. This plugin is part of the euailabel.app AI Act toolkit for e-commerce. Need to audit images across an entire website? AI Act Icon discovers public website images and where they appear, then helps you classify them and maintain an audit history. EU AI Label is an independent tool that helps with transparency disclosures in the spirit of the EU AI Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689). It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or an official labeling scheme of the European Union or any EU institution. EU AI Label Pro A Pro upgrade adds, for stores that need more:

• An adaptive badge that auto-adjusts to light or dark images.
• Label Studio controls for background/text colors, border radius, and an optional Sparkles, AI Pen, or Robot icon.
• Bulk labeling from the Media Library (list and grid views).
• Optional "how it was altered" details shown in a badge tooltip (e.g. background removed, color modified).
• A tamper-evident audit log of every label change (who, what, when), sealed with a hash chain.

Label Studio is available under Settings → EU AI Label → Label Studio. Its live preview shows color, corner-radius, and icon changes immediately and reports the resulting WCAG AA text-contrast ratio before the style is saved. Badge wording remains localized and cannot be replaced. The compact “AI” mark stays circular and icon-free, while custom colors override the adaptive light-chip palette for consistent branding. The free plugin is a complete, unrestricted disclosure tool; Pro adds the refinements above. All Pro functionality lives in a separately distributed build — nothing in the free plugin is locked or limited.
