Colorado AI Act Compliance Documentation
Complete SB 24-205 deployer documentation — risk management policy, impact assessments, consumer notices, and AG response packets. Structured. Scored. Ready to file.
Does Your Organization Need to Comply?
You are a deployer under SB 24-205 if your organization uses AI systems that make or substantially contribute to consequential decisions affecting Colorado residents in any of these areas:
Employment & Hiring
Resume screening, candidate ranking, automated interview scoring, performance evaluations, promotion or termination decisions.
Lending & Credit
Credit scoring, loan approval, interest rate determination, credit limit decisions, collections prioritization.
Housing & Tenant Screening
Tenant screening, rental application scoring, lease approval, property valuation, eviction risk assessment.
Healthcare
Diagnosis support, treatment recommendations, insurance eligibility, care prioritization, utilization management.
Insurance
Risk assessment, premium calculation, claims processing, fraud detection, coverage determination.
Education
Admissions scoring, financial aid determination, academic performance prediction, disciplinary recommendations.
Small Business Exemption: Companies with fewer than 50 full-time employees are exempt from some requirements — but only if they do not use their own data to train or fine-tune the AI system. If you customize models with proprietary data, you must comply regardless of size.
If any of these apply to your organization, you likely need deployer documentation.

7 Documents SB 24-205 Requires You to Produce

Built on Recognized Frameworks
SB 24-205 explicitly requires deployer risk management programs to be reasonable considering established frameworks. AOP documentation aligns with:
NIST AI RMF
National Institute of Standards and Technology AI Risk Management Framework — referenced directly in the statute as a reasonableness benchmark.
ISO/IEC 42001
International standard for AI management systems — also referenced in the statute as a benchmark for reasonable care.
Colorado AG Guidance
Documentation templates updated as the Attorney General issues additional rulemaking and designated frameworks.
