Deezer has launched a free online tool that scans playlists across 20 major streaming platforms and flags AI-generated tracks. Available in 27 languages, the AI music detector is accessible at deezer.com\/explore\/ai-music-detector\/<\/a> and represents the latest step in the company\u2019s push to bring transparency to streaming amid a sharp rise in machine-made music.<\/p>\n The scale of the problem is significant. Deezer reports receiving around 75,000 AI-generated tracks per day, a figure that represents 44% of all daily deliveries to the platform. In 2025, it detected and tagged 13.4 million AI tracks. Of the streams those tracks received, 85% were found to be fraudulent.<\/p>\n Deezer was the first major streaming platform to begin tagging AI-generated music at scale, a process it started in June 2025. Since then, the company has excluded AI tracks from its algorithmic recommendations and editorial playlists.<\/p>\n The decision to make its detection tool publicly available comes partly in response to how widespread AI music has become. According to Deezer, 43% of users who migrate from other streaming services already have AI-generated tracks sitting in their playlists, often without knowing it.<\/p>\n Deezer released its detector alongside new research conducted by Ipsos across 9,000 people in eight countries. The findings reinforce just how difficult it is to spot AI music by ear: 97% of respondents could not identify AI-generated tracks in a blind test.<\/p>\n That said, listeners have firm opinions about what should happen next. Eighty per cent said they want AI music labelled clearly, and 73% said they expect streaming platforms to do the tagging themselves. The data reflects a wider listener concern about the role of AI music generators<\/a> in the current streaming ecosystem.<\/p>\n CEO Alexis Lanternier said the tool demonstrates the platform\u2019s commitment to transparency for both fans and artists.<\/p>\n Beyond the consumer-facing tool, Deezer is now licensing its AI detection technology to other companies. The platform filed two patents covering the detection method in December 2024.<\/p>\n As the debate around AI music and copyright<\/a> continues to develop across the industry, tools that can accurately identify machine-generated content are likely to become increasingly valuable.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/weraveyou.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Banner.gif\")
