The AI-SBOM Transparency is intended as the single point of truth for collecting and sharing the necessary information, keeping the following benefits in mind:
 
 - Overview of transparency obligations: Reducing the need for an in-depth understanding of the AI Act (saves time and effort to read 160+ pages).
-- Improves risk management in transparency: Completing the AI BOM helps in identifying and addressing potential vulnerabilities and dependencies related to transparency throughout the development cycle of high-risk AI systems.

 - Approach to simplify compliance with transparency requirements: Helps to ensure adherence to the AI Act's transparency requirements by collecting the relevant information, which, in turn, reduces deployment and liability risks.
-- AI BOM Transparency may complement and/or refer to the instructions for use (“User Manual”). It could be a first “draft” of a “User Manual” which has to be provided to the Deployer.

-AI BOM Transparency targets technical professionals engaged in compliance matters as well as compliance experts delving into technical aspects. Our goal is to support providers and deployers in managing, maintaining, and making knowledgeable choices about AI systems within the AI Act's regulations (Articles 13 and 52). Achieving this is more feasible through a collaborative approach.

 **Article 13 (2)** Requires that the high-risk AI System shall be accompanied by **instructions for** use** [Like a “**(Digital) User Manual**”] that helps the deployer (the entity who is putting the AI System into use) operate and maintain the AI System as intended, as well as supporting an informed decision making by the deployer. Such a User Manual has to incorporate information referred to in Article 13 (3) and be available prior to putting the AI System into service or placing the AI System on the market.
 
-**Article 13 (3)** Specifies concrete information that shall be communicated for reaching sufficient transparency to satisfy Article 13 (1). This is the focus of the AI BOM and includes information such as the intended purpose of the AI System, known/foreseeable risks/misuses, desired input data, affected persons etc. The AI BOM is not meant to replace or implement the instructions for use. The AI BOM aims to support in collecting such relevant information for the instructions of use during the development process of an AI System.

The AI BOM aims to support in collecting such relevant information for the instructions of use during the development process of an AI System.
 
 Thus, high-risk AI Systems shall be designed and developed in such a way that their operation is sufficiently transparent to assure the respective deployer (and provider themselves if they deploy their own AI System internally) appropriately interpret and use the results of the AI System [“Procedural Transparency”]. Such Procedural Transparency, as outlined in Article 13, is particularly crucial in the AI value chain perspective from the provider to the actual deployer of the AI System.

 **Note #3**: Recognizing the variety of stakeholders involved in the AI lifecycle, each possessing varying degrees of technical know-how, we understand that transparency is not a one-size-fits-all attribute. AI systems should offer tailored transparency across the AI value chain, catering to the unique needs and perspectives of each stakeholder. This calls for a collaborative effort among all parties involved to ensure effective transparency."
