# ManyLives Audio Release Compliance Checker

> ManyLives Audio Release Compliance Checker is a paid API for AI agents from api.manylives.me, paid per call via x402, $0.002/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-21).

Validates a music release (or batch of up to 200) against streaming platform rules: AI disclosure flags, functional noise duration minimums, duplicate track detection, and upload policy checks.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability manylives-audio-release-compliance-checker-dea75c09 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Check if this release is ready to go live on streaming platforms: title is 'Rain on Tin (feat. Nova Lane)', artists are Sleep Music and Nova Lane, live date 2026-10-23, one track called 'Rain on Tin' that's 95 seconds long, AI was used for instrumentation but not vocals, and it's a functional noise recording.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to pre-screen music releases for streaming platform compliance before distribution — especially for AI disclosure requirements, functional noise duration rules, or catching duplicates across large batches. It is purpose-built for music release metadata validation and understands royalty policy changes (e.g. the Nov 2023 functional noise ruling), making it more specialized than a generic schema validator or rules engine.

## Known failure modes

- Release missing required fields (title, artists, live date) causes validation errors
- Track duration below 120s for functional noise recordings results in a royalty eligibility fail
- Live date fewer than 7 days ahead generates a warning
- Duplicate ISRCs or matching title+duration (within 3s tolerance) across batch flagged as fail
- AI used but ai_used flag omitted may cause undisclosed AI content warnings
- Malformed release JSON in the 'release' or 'releases' field causes parse errors
- Batch exceeding 200 releases may be rejected

## How this service works

Pay-per-call tools for people building AI agents: live web search and page contents, prompt-injection checks, market data and risk sizing for trading agents, company profiles and quick AI. Ask us to turn a public website into a JSON endpoint. Pay per call, no account, free trial.

## Output

A JSON object with a top-level 'ready' boolean, per-release breakdowns (title, ready status, list of fails and warns, and detailed check results with status and explanation), plus batch-level checks for duplicates across the full submission.
