Platform Market: Deezer: Over 50% of Daily Uploads Are AI-Generated
Deezer reports that AI-generated music now makes up more than half of daily uploads to its platform, with a peak in June 2026 averaging 90,000 AI tracks per day. The company plans to remove AI-generated tracks that haven't been streamed in the past six months or that are linked to fraudulent streaming. Deezer has been tracking AI music growth since 2025, deployed labeling and detection technology (capable of identifying outputs from Suno and Udio), and has made its detection tools available to other platforms.
Rapid growth of AI-generated music affects content quality, artist royalties, streaming fraud and moderation practices; Deezer's detection and removal policy and sharing of detection tools are relevant to other streaming platforms and rights holders but originate from a single streaming service rather than a dominant platform.
