# What does Deezer tell distributors and other business partners about using its AI-detection output (what is detected, who decides the consequences, what uploader declarations count), and is a supplier-facing AI delivery policy published?

Deezer for Business's AI Detection FAQ (system dates created 2026-05-12, updated 2026-05-21) is addressed to distributors, rights holders, collecting societies and platforms who might license the detector. It says the tool classifies and tags, that consequences (exclusion, demonetising, labels, royalty treatment) are each partner's decision under their own policies, that detection reads audio patterns rather than metadata or uploader declarations, that it focuses on fully AI-generated tracks with hybrid detection "in active development", and gives company figures (39% of deliveries, up to 85% of that fraudulent, false-positive rate below 0.01%). No supplier-facing delivery policy on AI was found in the 16 business help-centre articles; so a distributor's own AI rule, not a Deezer supplier rule, is what an uploader can read.
