Why this exists

Music Trust Score is a free AI music detection tool. Look up any artist, song, or album from Spotify or Apple Music, and we'll check whether there's a real person behind the music.

We've grown to trust the next song our algorithms play. For years, that trust made sense. Every song had a person behind it. A producer in a studio, a singer on a stage, a writer pulling from their life. That's changing fast.

AI-generated music is flooding streaming platforms at a scale that's hard to overstate. Deezer, the only streaming service actively detecting and reporting AI content, tracked 60,000 fully AI-generated tracks arriving every day by January 2026, accounting for 39% of all new music delivered to the platform. That share went from 10% in January 2025 to 39% twelve months later. At that rate, the majority of new music delivered to streaming services will be AI-generated before the end of 2026. And in a study of 9,000 listeners across eight countries, 97% could not tell the difference between AI and human-made music.

The impact on real artists is already measurable. An AI act called Sienna Rose was built to sound like Alicia Keys, Olivia Dean, and Norah Jones. She hit 3.6 million monthly Spotify listeners and put three tracks on the Viral 50 USA chart before being identified as AI. She's one of many. Xania Monet, the first AI artist to chart on Billboard, accumulated 44 million US streams and pulled over $150,000 from the same royalty pool that pays the human artists these acts were trained to imitate. Hallwood Media signed her for a reported $3 million.

If we want to keep discovering artists we can follow, root for, see live, we have to start paying attention to what's behind the music we listen to. Music Trust Score helps you check. Look up any artist, song, or album, and we'll show you whether you can trust that the music was made by a real person.
