See Artificial Streaming Before It Costs You

Stream Radar is LabelGrid’s streaming-integrity monitor. It flags tracks and releases showing patterns consistent with artificial streaming, early enough for you to act before fees, takedowns, or strikes arrive from the DSPs.

Radar view flagging tracks with artificial streaming patterns

THE PENALTY ARRIVES WEEKS LATE

Most Artificial Streaming Isn’t Even Intentional

An artist buys a playlist promotion in good faith. The promoter delivers streams with bots. Weeks later the DSP responds with artificial-streaming fees, content takedowns, or account strikes, and by then the damage is done. The artist rarely knew. The label or distributor carrying the account pays for it anyway. That gap between the streams and the consequences is exactly where Stream Radar works.

AN EARLY-WARNING SIGNAL

What Stream Radar Does

Watches your whole catalog

Live monitoring across your releases, not spot checks. New patterns surface as they develop.

Flags at the track level

See which specific tracks and releases may be generating artificial streams, so conversations with artists start from evidence.

Leaves time to act

A flag arrives while you can still pause promotion, warn the artist, or investigate, instead of reading about it in a DSP penalty notice.

SIGNAL, NOT VERDICT

Built for Catalogs With Reputations to Protect

No detection system catches everything, and a flag is an early warning to look into, never a guilty verdict on an artist. Most affected artists bought promotion in good faith and have no idea what was done in their name. Stream Radar exists so you can protect them, and your own DSP standing, while there’s still time to fix things. It’s built on the same streaming-integrity detection LabelGrid runs in production on its own catalog, and it ships for both API and white-label customers.

THE WINDOW WHERE ACTION WORKS

How the Timeline Usually Plays Out

The streams arrive

A promo campaign delivers a spike. On the surface it looks like success, and nobody thinks to question it.

Radar raises a flag

The pattern looks consistent with artificial activity, so the release gets flagged for you to look at while the campaign is still running.

You act before the DSP does

Pause the promo, talk to the artist, document what you found. When penalties land weeks later on catalogs that didn’t act, yours already has.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

Stream Radar is a streaming-integrity monitor for LabelGrid API and white-label customers. It watches your catalog for patterns consistent with artificial streaming and flags the tracks and releases that need attention.

No, and nothing honest claims to be. Stream Radar is an early-warning signal. It surfaces tracks that may be generating artificial streams so you can investigate while action is still possible.

Not at all. Most artificial streaming traces back to third-party promotion bought in good faith. A flag starts a conversation, nothing more.

Check the release’s recent promotion, talk to the artist, and pause any campaign you can’t verify. Acting early is the whole point, because DSP fees and takedowns typically land weeks after the streams do.
