Just wanted some clarification. From what I understood from reading the book, Artificers have a few spells that can be cast as rituals. It doesn't seem like you need a ritual caster feat to cast them that way from what I feel like I read. Is this the case or do they need ritual caster feat in order to cast them that way?
Artificers can cast ritual spells as a ritual if they have those spells prepared. They don't need the ritual caster feat. Similar to how ritual casting works with clerics and druids.
The ritual caster feat would allow you to cast ritual spells that are written in the ritual book without needing them to be prepared.
Since you don't prepare cantrips and there are cantrips with the ritual tag, in the artificer spell list, can all tagged cantrips be ritual cast, no matter what?

I don't think there are officially any cantrips with the ritual tag. Casting a ritual spell as a ritual lets you cast it without a spell slot in exchange for a 10 minute longer casting time. Cantrips already don't cost spell slots so they'd gain no mechanical benefit from being a ritual spell.
Are you perhaps looking at homebrew cantrips?

Ritual Casting
You can cast an artificer spell as a ritual if that spell has the ritual tag and you have the spell prepared.

Cool. That's what I thought but just wanted to get a second opinion
