Spotify
AI music is allowed, but unauthorised voice impersonation and deceptive synthetic media are not, and Spotify is rolling out a spam filter and AI credits disclosures.
Do you have to disclose AI?
Spotify announced AI disclosures via industry-standard credits (Sep 2025).
The rules
- Vocal impersonation (e.g. AI voice clones) only with the impersonated artist's authorisation.
- No synthetic media presented as authentic in harmful ways.
- Spam-style mass uploads are filtered and not recommended.
Common questions
Suno's free and Basic tiers are personal and non-commercial only.
Udio's current terms bar downloading outputs and distributing them on streaming platforms such as Spotify, and bar any commercial use.
ElevenLabs' music terms prohibit streaming distribution on the Free and Starter plans and permit it on Creator and above.
In their words
“Vocal impersonation is only allowed in music on Spotify when the impersonated artist has authorized the usage.”
“Content that promotes manipulated and synthetic media as authentic in ways that pose the risk of harm”
“AI disclosures for music with industry-standard credits”
