How it sells itself

If your store uses AI-generated descriptions, images, or chatbots, the EU AI Act requires you to disclose that to customers. Enforcement begins August 2026. This app scans your products, pages, policies, and apps to find content that needs transparency labels. It also checks for FTC issues like unsubstantiated health or green claims.

Vapely Compliance helps vape, nicotine, and hemp product merchants stay compliant with US federal and state regulations. The app uses AI to automatically classify your products and evaluate them against current laws in all 50 states and DC. It identifies which states each product can legally be sold in and blocks restricted sales at checkout, on product pages, and on collection pages.

Key points
  • One-click scan of products, pages, and policies for AI Act violations
  • FTC checker flags unsubstantiated health, green, and product claims
  • Auto-generate disclosure labels and an AI transparency page
  • Continuous monitoring alerts you when new content creates gaps
  • AI classifies vape, nicotine, and hemp products by regulation category.
  • Evaluates product compliance across all 50 US states and cities.
  • Blocks restricted product sales at checkout based on shipping address.
  • Hides or badges restricted products on collection and product pages.
