Situations, not feature bullets
Pick the scenario that fits. Each card opens with a plain-English summary, then the regulatory hooks we typically surface—so buyers without a law degree still see where risk concentrates.
“I’m launching a marketplace”
Intermediary duties, payments hooks, and consumer-facing disclosures when you match buyers and sellers.
Rules that tend to trigger
- DSA-style notice-and-action, traceability, and point-of-contact where transposed—plus national consumer information rules
- If you move money: PSD2 / national payment-services overlays for bank questionnaires
- Consumer vs business sellers: different pre-contract and unfair-terms lines in LV/LT/EE/NL
“I’m building a SaaS tool with user accounts”
GDPR posture, subprocessors, and B2B/B2C pricing surfaces that still touch consumer law.
Rules that tend to trigger
- GDPR controller vs processor, RoPA, subprocessors, transfers if US parent or hosting outside EEA
- Regulated-sector customers: their sector acts can shape your contract and support obligations
- Mixed B2B/B2C pricing pages: EU consumer disclosures may still apply on consumer journeys
“I’m adding AI features to my product”
AI Act classification plus GDPR for data and automated decisions—not tweet-thread law.
Rules that tend to trigger
- EU AI Act: classification and timelines (prohibited / high-risk / GPAI) from operative articles
- GDPR for training data, inference logs, and automated decisions affecting people
- Consumer-facing outputs: statute-level hooks on product safety and fairness—flagged, not hyped
“I’m a US startup expanding to the EU”
Representatives, transfers, and first-market consumer and payments law where you actually launch.
Rules that tend to trigger
- GDPR representative, SCCs / transfer tools, DPA language when EU entities or data subjects appear
- Local consumer law + payments in first Member States—not generic “Brussels overview”
- NL/Baltics hiring: labor and contractor rules are out of core scope unless you request an add-on
None of these? Describe your situation on the form and we will say plainly if we can source it.
