Deezer is reinforcing its AI music detection push by allowing listeners to scan playlists from other streaming services for synthetic tracks. This gives users a way to check whether a playlist contains AI-generated music, regardless of which platform they use.
This new tool works via its AI music detector site. Users only need to choose a streaming service, grant Deezer permission to access it, and then allow the platform to import playlists for analysis.
The feature is compatible with 20 services, including Spotify, Apple Music, SoundCloud, and YouTube Music.
Once the playlists are imported, Deezer scans them for AI content, flags any matches, and lets users share the results.
The launch builds on Deezer’s earlier role in the space. The company was the first major streaming service to start labeling AI-generated music, and it also offered its detection technology to other platforms.
According to Deezer CEO Alexis Lanternier, no other company followed that lead, so Deezer decided to make the feature available directly to users. The company’s system appears to use Tune My Music for playlist importing, a service it already uses for library transfers from competitors.
