Scope checker
LiveThe starting point for everything else: a free, plain-English checker that tells a small operator whether the UK Online Safety Act applies to their service — and, if it does, which duties would typically follow.
Included free — no account needed.
What it does
Seven short questions about your users, your content, and your UK link. No jargon, no account, and you see your result before you give an email.
A clear verdict — in scope, likely in scope, worth checking, or out of scope — with the reasoning shown, not hidden behind a score.
Why it matters for the Online Safety Act
Most small operators do not actually know whether the Act reaches them, and the guidance is written for lawyers. Knowing where you stand is the difference between wasted worry and a short, focused to-do list.
Every duty the checker surfaces is linked to its Ofcom or GOV.UK source, so you can verify the basis for yourself rather than take our word for it.
How it works
Answer seven questions
Plain English, about three minutes, covering user content, functionality, and your connection to the UK.

A scope verdict plus the duties that would typically apply, each with its source.
Keep the summary
Email yourself the result and a duties checklist to start preparing your records.
You go from "I have no idea if this applies to me" to a clear, cited verdict and a concrete list of what to prepare — for free.
General guidance to help you prepare your records — not legal advice, and using it does not make you “compliant”.
