TuneCore AI & Data Protection Program

Protecting the Value of Your Music. Creating New Value From It.

At TuneCore, we approach AI through two commitments: protecting the value of your music responsibly, and creating new value from it.

The music that powers AI, the artists who shape it, and the deals that define it are being formed today. Our job is to help ensure you’re protected where it matters and positioned to benefit where the opportunity is real.

In 2024, we launched TuneCore’s AI & Data Protection Program, built on the principles of consent, control, compensation, and transparency. Today, we’re launching the next phase of the program, including our first partner opportunities with ElevenLabs and Udio benefiting from TuneCore’s efforts to support licensed, compensated uses of music.

About the Opportunities:

Udio

Your first fan engagement opportunity

Udio is an AI music platform where fans and creators can interact with your music in new ways - remixing, reinterpreting, and experimenting with AI-powered tools. It all takes place within a walled garden, a protected space where TuneCore has licensed your music, and where AI creations cannot leave the Udio platform without approval.

This is a new way to give your most engaged fans a deeper connection with your music. It opens up new creative experiences, discovery and revenue - while you stay in control. The fan-facing experience will launch later in 2026 - secure your place now. 

By joining the Udio opportunity you get:

  • A new channel for fan engagement, discovery and monetisation

  • Licensed and compensated use of your music, including model training and AI generated derivatives, within the agreed scope

  • Protection by content safeguards including fingerprinting and monitoring

ElevenLabs

ElevenLabs is a leading GenAI music platform developing tools for music, audio and creative applications. You’ll participate in a licensed AI ecosystem while retaining control.

By joining the ElevenLabs opportunity you get:

  • Licensed use of recordings for model training

  • Compensation for participating catalogues

  • No attributable consumer-facing activation today
