Quality control,
on every release
limbo/Agent Quality Control is an AI agent that runs a full quality pass on every release before it ships: cover art, metadata and audio, checked against the rules that actually matter to the stores you deliver to. Issues flagged, ranked and explained, consistently across your entire catalog.
Image, metadata
and audio
Three layers of automated checks run on every release before it reaches a store, catching the issues that normally cause rejections, claims or worse.
- Titles, ISRC, UPC and check digit
- Version tags, P-line / C-line, advisory
- Multi-language spell check (Latin and non-Latin)
- Artist similarity vs. famous artists
- Technical specs (format, sample rate, bitrate)
- Silence, long intros and spoken-word detection
- Audio quality scan (clipping, codec, lossy)
- Fingerprint match (covers, samples, prior releases)
- AI-generated music detection
- AI cross-review against store rules
An AI that reads the
whole release
Beyond field-by-field checks, a multimodal AI reads the full report and the cover together, cross-checking every finding against an up-to-date library of store delivery rules.
Audio matched against a global catalog to surface covers, samples, shared beats and prior releases, protecting you and your DSP relationships.
Flags whether tracks were created with generative AI, so you can apply the right policy before delivery. Human music, kept honest.
Stays aligned with the content-integrity and delivery policies of Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, Merlin and more, so clean releases go in and rejections stay out.
Agent QC is the submission-time layer. It pairs with limbo/'s ongoing artificial-streaming protection so your catalog is protected before release and monitored after it goes live.
QC that scales
without the drift
Manual review does not scale and is never consistent. An agent that applies the same rules every time does.
Founder-owned, no major labels, no VCs. Your catalog and the findings on it stay inside limbo/.
Agent QC works with distribution, royalties, the API and white-label, as modular Music Blocks.
The agent handles scale; a senior team handles the judgment calls. Not a ticket queue.
Quality control,
answered
What does limbo/Agent Quality Control check?
Every release gets a full quality pass across three layers: image (content moderation, OCR, store-policy compliance), metadata (titles, ISRC, UPC, version tags, multi-language spell check, technical specs) and audio (silence, clipping, codec and lossy detection, fingerprint matching). Issues are flagged, ranked and explained before delivery.
Does it detect AI-generated music?
Yes. Agent QC flags whether tracks were created with generative AI, so you can apply the right policy before delivery. A multimodal AI also reads the full report and the cover together, cross-checking every finding against an up-to-date library of store delivery rules.
Does it check against store policies?
Yes. The checks are run against the rules that actually matter to the stores you deliver to, and stay aligned with the content-integrity policies of Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, Merlin and more. Consistent across your entire catalog, not dependent on which reviewer looked at it.
Does it catch covers, samples and duplicates?
Yes. Audio is fingerprinted and matched against a global music catalog to surface covers, samples, shared beats and prior releases, alongside reference matching that protects you and your DSP relationships.
How does this relate to artificial-streaming protection?
Agent QC is the submission-time layer. It pairs with limbo/'s ongoing artificial-streaming protection for a full picture: clean releases going in, and fraud monitoring after they are live.
Is Agent QC part of the platform or separate?
It is the limbo/Agent Quality Control Music Block, available in the platform and via API. It works with distribution, royalties and the rest of the stack. Take only the blocks you need.
