AIAPS Protection Mark

The AIAPS protection mark signals that a recording has been processed under the AI Audio Protection Standard.

The recommended public notice is

AIAPS-PROTECTED

Unauthorized AI training prohibited.

This notice signals that the recording has been designated as not authorized for AI training, dataset ingestion, voice cloning, style modeling, or synthetic generation without permission from the rights holder.

Section 02 — Relationship to Protection

Relationship to Protection

An AIAPS-compliant recording includes all four components of the standard.

Required for compliance

01A registry-backed AIAPS record

02A compliant perceptual fingerprint

03An embedded AIAPS watermark

04A metadata notice where supported by the file format

The mark is a public signal that these requirements have been met. Displaying the mark alone does not substitute for the compliance requirements above. Verification is performed through AIAPS verification tools and registry records.

Section 03 — Verification Reference

Verification Reference

Where possible, AIAPS-processed recordings should include a verification reference.

Verify: aiaps-standard.org/verify/{AIAPS-ID}

The verification reference links the recording’s public identifier to the AIAPS verification system and helps users confirm the associated registration record.
