Free LL144 tool

Does NYC Local Law 144 apply to this workflow?

Answer five high-level questions about the employment use, computational process, output, reliance and NYC nexus. The result is a preliminary scope signal, not a legal determination.

1. Is the tool used in a hiring or promotion decision?
2. Does it use machine learning, statistical modeling, data analytics or AI as described by the rule?
3. Does it produce a score, classification, recommendation, ranking or similar simplified output?
4. Is that output used to substantially assist or replace discretionary decision-making?
5. Is there a NYC-linked employment-decision nexus?

No answers are sent to a server by this tool. It runs locally in your browser and does not ask for candidate data.

What this tool does — and does not do

The checker follows the main statutory/rule elements but cannot resolve edge cases such as mixed sourcing/screening workflows, multi-location roles, unusual outputs or changing reliance. Review the full scope framework for those questions.
