Deezer launches AI tool to detect AI-generated music in playlists across major streaming platforms
Deezer’s latest AI tool lets you check whether you’ve got AI-generated music hiding in your playlists.
Deezer has been one of the most proactive streaming platforms when it comes to AI transparency. After becoming the first streaming service to detect and label AI-generated music, the company has now unveiled a new tool designed to bring more transparency to listeners themselves.
Its latest launch allows listeners to scan their playlists using its AI music detector to identify whether they contain fully AI-generated tracks. The tool is available across major streaming platforms, helping listeners everywhere see whether AI music exists within their playlists.
How does Deezer’s AI detector tool for playlists work?
According to Deezer, the free online tool allows users to connect their streaming account and scan playlists for AI-generated music.
Available in 27 languages and compatible with 20 major streaming platforms, the detector uses Deezer’s existing AI detection technology to analyse playlists and identify fully synthetic tracks. Users simply select their streaming service, connect their account, allow the scan to run, and receive an AI score showing how much AI-generated music appears in their library.
Speaking about the launch, Deezer CEO Alexis Lanternier said the company wanted to make it possible for everyone to check their playlists, regardless of which streaming service they use.
“We decided to make it possible for everyone to check if their playlists include synthetic music, no matter which streaming platform they use… A vast majority of people want to know if AI music is being recommended to them and our data show that nearly half of the users joining Deezer from another platform have AI tracks in their playlists. We’re expecting our AI music detector to be an eye-opening experience for listeners around the world.”

The bigger picture
The launch builds on Deezer’s broader push for transparency around AI content. The company became the first streaming platform to label AI-generated music, and continues to heavily invest in detection technology as the volume of AI-created music continues to rise.
The figures recently shared by Deezer highlight the scale of that growth. Deezer says it currently receives nearly 75,000 AI-generated tracks every day, representing more than 44% of all daily uploads to the platform. In total, the company detected and tagged more than 13.4 million AI-generated tracks in 2025 alone.
At the same time, Deezer says AI-generated music is already appearing in many listeners’ libraries. According to the company, 43% of users joining Deezer from other streaming services have AI-generated tracks in their playlists. That’s a lot.
For artists, these developments underline the growing importance of transparency as AI music becomes more prevalent across streaming platforms. They also highlight the challenges around discoverability as increasing volumes of AI-generated content enter the ecosystem.
Looking ahead
Deezer’s AI Music Detector is a simple tool, but it reflects a much larger shift taking place across the music industry.
As AI-generated music becomes more common, listeners are increasingly asking for transparency, while platforms are investing in detection, labelling, and fraud prevention measures.
For artists, the conversation is likely to become just as important as the technology itself. How streaming services identify, label, and surface AI-generated content could play a significant role in shaping music discovery in the years ahead.
