AI-Generated Content, Audio, Artwork & Metadata Policy

Last Updated: October 19, 2026 • Published by Zaventra Music Group Operations

Policy Summary: Strict prohibition of generative-AI audio in standard distribution, cover art authenticity rules, and genuine metadata standards.

1. Core Creative Standards

Zaventra Music Group is dedicated to championing genuine human musical artistry. Our standard distribution pathways enforce clear boundaries regarding artificial intelligence:
  • Audio Standard: Fully generative AI music (text-to-audio tracks, synthetic cloned vocal performances) is NOT accepted for standard commercial distribution.
  • Artwork Standard: Cover art must be human-created and must not consist of prominent or fully generative-AI imagery.
  • Metadata Standard: Contributor credits, songwriter names, and performer identities must represent real, verifiable individuals.

2. Permissible Audio Engineering vs. Prohibited AI

Conventional digital audio engineering—such as digital EQ, compression, noise reduction, vocal pitch correction (AutoTune/Melodyne), and algorithmic mastering tools (e.g., Ozone)—is permitted. Prohibited generative AI involves systems that synthesize the actual musical composition, instrumental arrangement, or singing performance without human execution.

3. Mandatory AI Involvement Disclosure

Submitters must accurately disclose whether any AI-assisted tools were utilized during creation. In accordance with streaming partner standards (including YouTube and Spotify), misrepresenting synthetic audio as human performance constitutes grounds for catalog rejection.
