Established

When working on a data science project, this tool helps you proactively consider and address ethical implications. It takes your project files (like notebooks) or an empty file and adds a customizable ethics checklist directly to it. Data scientists, machine learning engineers, and analysts can use this to guide discussions and document decisions on ethical considerations.

306 stars. Available on PyPI.

Use this if you are a data professional who wants a structured way to integrate ethical reflection into your projects from the outset.

Not ideal if you are looking for automated ethical compliance checks or a tool to enforce specific ethical decisions, as it's designed to prompt discussion, not dictate solutions.
