Deezer Claims 28% of All Music Delivered Daily is Fully AI-Generated, Up 10% Since April

Deezer says it’s now receiving more than 30,000 fully AI-generated songs every day, amounting to over 28% of all songs delivered daily to the platform. This is the third announcement from Deezer this year tracking its findings about AI music on the platform, which has increased rapidly since January.

In its first announcement, which came on Jan. 24, Deezer said its new AI detection tool had found that 10% of songs delivered daily were fully AI-generated. To mitigate this growth, the platform also announced at the time that it would develop a tagging system to add disclaimers to fully AI-generated works detected on the platform, adding that those AI songs would be removed from algorithmic and editorial recommendations to provide a boost to human-made music. The company said these figures did not count songs that were partially assisted by AI, noting that it only had the capability of flagging AI use from a handful of popular AI music models, including Suno and Udio.

For this reason, Deezer’s director of research, Manuel Moussallam, told Billboard in a June interview that “we were very conservative in the numbers we reported [in January]. We didn’t want any false positives.” Just a few months later, in April 2025, Deezer adjusted its claims, saying that fully AI-generated songs accounted for 18% of daily uploads. In the June interview, Moussallam said that by April, “our data just got better” and that the jump was largely due to improvements in Deezer’s detection and tagging system: “I think the 18% [figure] is actually much more accurate and closer to what we actually saw from January, but still, that number is increasing,” he continued.

Among streaming services, Deezer has so far been the most vocal and proactive about AI-generated content on its platform. Larger streaming services have been much more hesitant to create AI policies or talk about them publicly. Amazon and Apple have yet to speak publicly about their approach to AI music on their services, and Spotify does not have any rules about AI music specifically. Instead, they police negative uses of AI-generated songs on the platform with pre-existing rules barring impersonation, spam or artificial streaming — three common uses for AI technology among bad actors.

SoundCloud, however, does have a policy that “prohibit[s] the monetization of songs and content that are exclusively generated through AI, encouraging creators to use AI as a tool rather than a replacement of human creation,” a company spokesperson says.
