Deezer Introduces AI-Generated Music Labels on Albums

The French streaming service deploys a proprietary detection tool that tags fully AI-created songs, safeguarding royalties for human artists.

Les albums contenant des titres entièrement générés par l'intelligence artificielle (IA) sont désormais signalés par une mention à l'attention des utilisateurs de la plateforme de streaming française Deezer

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.
