AI-assisted music is welcome on ARCRYN™. AI-impersonated music is not. The difference is authorship, disclosure, and consent — and we enforce all three.
ARCRYN™ permits the use of artificial intelligence in music creation, production, and post-production. AI is a tool, not a shortcut around ownership or authenticity — using it does not exempt you from the same rights, quality, and integrity standards that apply to every release on the platform.
The following uses of AI are permitted without additional restriction, subject to standard disclosure:
Automated mastering tools applied to a finished mix.
AI-assisted balancing, EQ, and mix decisions.
AI-generated instrumentals, backing tracks, or sound design elements.
AI tools used to draft, refine, or brainstorm lyrics.
AI-based isolation of vocals, instruments, or other stems from existing audio.
The following are not permitted under any circumstances, regardless of disclosure:
At submission, every release must answer whether AI was used:
If yes, you must additionally provide:
Every disclosed AI release passes through a structured review before distribution:
Violations of this policy — including undisclosed AI use — are treated with the same severity as any other content violation. Possible actions include:
FAQ
Yes, provided you disclose AI use, hold the necessary rights to any inputs you supplied, and the release does not impersonate a real artist or use a cloned voice without consent.
Same rules as any AI generation tool: disclosure required, no unauthorized voice cloning or impersonation, and you must be able to demonstrate your creative contribution if asked.
Yes, once it passes review. AI-assisted releases are eligible for the same royalty terms as any other release on the platform.
Yes. Voice cloning of your own, verified voice is permitted. Cloning another person’s voice — including public figures — without their documented consent is prohibited.
Yes. AI mastering, mixing, stem separation, and lyric assistance are all considered standard production tools and do not require special disclosure beyond the standard AI-use question at submission.
Need Help?
If you’re unsure whether your use of AI falls inside or outside this policy, ask before you submit — review after rejection takes longer than review before submission.
