Deezer scans Spotify and Apple Music playlists for AI

On Deezer, Apple Music, Spotify, SoundCloud and YouTube Music charts songs produced by artificial intelligence has made its free tool available for use. French music service, this tool Playlists on 20 different platforms Prepared to scan. Thus, it becomes possible to learn which songs are classified as synthetic music in the lists that have been growing for years on different services. The company highlighted this move at a time when demand for transparency in music services is increasing.

Deezer CEO Alexis Lanternier said that no other company has followed the step the company has taken in this field. However, Lanternier stated that Deezer now wants to enable each user to control their own playlist. According to company data, users switching to Deezer from other platforms 43 percent Their lists include parts produced with artificial intelligence. This rate shows that even an ordinary playlist may contain more synthetic content than thought.

To use the tool, click on Deezer AI music detector It is necessary to enter the page and then select the relevant music service. Access to Deezer is then granted and the system imports the playlists. The tool then scans the tracks, flags songs that look suspicious, and shows the user the results. The Verge reported that Deezer seems to benefit from the Tune My Music infrastructure in this transfer process.

On the Apple side, there is a different approach. Apple Music in March Transparency Tags launched the metadata system called. However, this system does not directly analyze the use of artificial intelligence, it is based on the statements of record companies and distributors. That’s why tags on Apple Music rely on voluntary or submission notifications from artists and rights holders.

Deezer separates synthetic music streams with technical analysis

Deezer’s approach differs from Apple’s declaration-based system. The platform technically examines the tracks and detects content that may be produced with artificial intelligence. In addition, Deezer labels these tracks in its own service and removes them from algorithmic recommendations. Thus, it is possible to see more clearly which content the recommendation systems highlight while listening to music.

The figures announced by the company explain why this vehicle has become a separate product. Deezer every day in January More than 60 thousand completely artificial intelligence produced parts He announced that he reached the platform. This number represents approximately the daily music delivery at that time. to 39 percent It was corresponding. In April 2026, the company will increase the daily number It is approaching 75 thousand and your share to 44 percent announced that he was leaving.

Fake rest data also explains why Deezer focuses on this area. The company predicts the number of listens in music produced with artificial intelligence by months throughout 2025. up to 85 percent detected fraud. However, Deezer is trying to protect artist payments by removing these streams from its revenue pool. Thus, synthetic music creates a separate topic not only on the content side but also on the royalty income side.

For those who have been using Apple Music or Spotify lists for a long time, this tool offers a practical checkpoint. In the lists that grow with suggestions over time, it becomes difficult to understand at first glance which pieces differ from human-made music. Deezer’s free tool answers this question by scanning lists on different platforms in a single spot. The company states that this experience will enable listeners around the world to look at music charts with new eyes.
