Short answer

A model card is a standardized document describing an AI model's intended uses, training data, performance results, and known limitations. It helps buyers, developers, and compliance teams understand where a model works well and where it may fail or show bias. Marketers can use model cards when evaluating AI vendors and assessing risk.
