Was any of this track generated by AI?
A recorded process account, shown alongside the AI Credits disclosure — the transparency behind the credit.
Legacy proof · optional
Audio is only fingerprint-checked against the proof, in a short-lived store that clears itself automatically — never reused or added to anything.
Preview clip start time
DistroKid added an AI Credits disclosure for AI-generated parts. That credit is declared; Proof of Human sits beside it as the recorded account of the work that can back it.

Fits the standards you already run
Creation context inside the standards, not a new silo.
Proof of Human adds a music-specific evidence account inside C2PA / Content Credentials: observations, inferences, declarations, conflicts, and anything unseen kept unknown. Platforms decide how to use that context. Complementary, never a compliance certificate.
Observed process
Supported activity recorded inside the DAW.
AI-assisted material
Disclosed with context when declared or positively observed.
Not witnessed
Kept unknown — never silently relabelled as AI.
EU AI Act · Article 50 — Machine-readable AI marking applies from Aug 2, 2026. PoH can add creation context beside machine-readable AI markings; it does not establish compliance by itself.
What your system receives
One JSON response, built to branch on.
Every verification returns the cryptographic result plus a policy-neutral decision envelope with stable reason slugs. Your pipeline routes on the status; the threshold and the policy stay yours.

}verified_binding
Signature, registry record, and exact audio binding passed, with no open evidence flag.
needs_review
The binding passed, but the evidence report asks for a human decision — route it to your review queue.
invalid_proof
Unreadable, tampered, unregistered, changed audio, or a never-registered local seal.
PoH attests its signature, the exact-audio binding, and the scoped evidence account it received. It does not independently certify authorship or that the music is AI-free.
