AI Disclosures

Symphonic was among the first distributors to integrate AI disclosures directly into the release submission process, allowing clients to identify AI involvement in:

Clients can disclose AI involvement at the:

  • Sound recordings

  • Artwork

  • Contributor credits

This, combined with scanning audio to detect AI, helps creators meet evolving platform requirements while providing DSPs and listeners with greater transparency around AI use.

A form with sections for sound recording, artwork, and contributor credits—each asking about AI tool usage and showing toggles or file upload options—streamlines the Music Distribution process. AI detection scanning is enabled at the bottom to ensure transparency.

AI Tools That Empower Your Work

AI is unlocking powerful new possibilities for creators—but the same technology can also be exploited. Mass-generated content, impersonation, fraudulent uploads, and artificial streaming can create noise, divert royalties, and undermine legitimate artists and rightsholders.

Symphonic is committed to helping keep the music ecosystem trustworthy. Our Trust & Safety team combines advanced technology, data-driven detection, and human expertise to identify suspicious activity, prevent abuse, and take action against content and behavior designed to manipulate platforms or royalties.

We believe AI should empower creativity—not exploit it.

Al creates incredible opportunities-but it also creates new risks.

That’s why we’ve invested in technologies that help artists, labels, and rights holders protect their music, voices, and creative identity.

MusicShield by ArtyShield

Through our partnership with ArtyShield, Symphonic clients have access to MusicShield, a technology designed to help prevent recordings from being used to train generative Al models without permission.

MusicShield modifies the machine-perceived characteristics of audio while remaining virtually unchanged to human listeners, making tracks significantly harder for Al systems to interpret and learn from-all without impacting the listening experience.

MusicShield is available directly through SymphonicMS.
