Fraud Intelligence Network
The music industry's shared defense against fraud
Distributors and DSPs fight fraud alone, discovering the same bad actors, building the same ban lists, losing the same revenue. Groovian connects that knowledge into a single intelligence network, so when one organization catches a threat, everyone benefits.
Screen incoming content
Check artists, releases, and accounts against industry-wide fraud intelligence before they hit your catalog. Catch known bad actors at the door, not after they've done damage.
Share fraud signals
Report suspicious activity securely. Every signal you share strengthens the network for the entire industry. Privacy-first design means your data stays protected.
Uncover fraud rings
See connections no single distributor could find alone. When multiple organizations flag the same entities, patterns emerge that reveal coordinated fraud operations.
DSP signal sharing
DSPs can submit signals on UPCs and ISRCs involved in artificial streaming, playlist manipulation, and other platform-level fraud. Their intelligence feeds the same network, closing the loop between platforms and distributors.
How it works
Three steps to collective intelligence
Connect your organization
Join the network and onboard your team. Set up API access to integrate screening directly into your existing distribution pipeline.
Share what you know
Submit fraud signals from your operations, individually or in bulk from existing ban lists. Your intelligence is anonymized and added to the collective database.
Screen everything
Check new content, artists, and accounts against the full network before distribution. Get instant risk scores and match data from across the industry.
