AI-generated music is hitting streaming platforms faster than any review team can screen it, and most detection tools return a single opaque score per track while misflagging autotuned or heavily produced human recordings. Modulate's AI Music Detection API runs two independent models, one for vocals and one for instrumentals, and scores every four-second window, so you can see exactly where AI content appears in a track instead of guessing from one number. This guide covers the batch and streaming endpoints, how to read the structured output, and how to tune thresholds for your own precision/recall tradeoff, with working curl and Python examples.
