Overview
- On June 20, 2025, Deezer became the first streaming platform to display an “AI-generated content” label on albums whose tracks are entirely produced by artificial intelligence.
- The company’s in-house detection system, which analyzes audio signals for AI-specific markers, achieves 98% reliability according to CEO Alexis Lanternier.
- Deezer receives over 20,000 fully AI-generated tracks each day, accounting for more than 18% of its daily uploads.
- AI-created songs remain available on the platform but are excluded from play counts used in royalty calculations to prevent diluting payments to human artists.
- In January, Deezer signed a rights agreement with SACEM to boost creator compensation and has signaled that subscription prices may rise in response to inflation and industry pressure.
