200+ tracks monitored

We got tired of losing our artists' music to bots.

So we built the protection we wished existed. Automated monitoring that catches fraudulent playlists before they trigger takedowns, royalty freezes, or algorithmic blacklisting.

The Problem

You don't choose which playlists add your music.
Bot networks do.

We've managed artists who lost everything overnight. One track with 2M streams—gone. Months of royalties—frozen. Trust with distributors—shattered. All because of a playlist they never asked to be on.

Instant Takedowns

Spotify removes tracks without warning. No appeal process, no explanation.

Royalty Freezes

Distributors withhold payments for 3-6 months during "investigations."

Algorithmic Blacklisting

Even without takedowns, botted playlists kill your chances of editorial support.

"We woke up to find our biggest artist's track completely removed. 2 million streams, gone. The playlist that caused it? We never even knew it existed."

"StreamShield caught a playlist with 50k fake followers that added my track. I disavowed it same day. Two weeks later, Spotify purged that exact playlist and my track was safe."

"My distributor froze $12k in royalties claiming 'artificial streams.' StreamShield's logs proved I reported the bad playlist 3 weeks before the freeze. Got my money released in 48 hours."

Methodology

We maintain the largest database of bad playlists in the industry.

Every day, our network identifies new fraudulent playlists. When your music appears on one, we know within minutes—not months.

1

Cross-reference detection

We check your catalog against our growing database of 1.3M+ flagged playlists updated daily.

2

Instant alert + evidence log

You get notified immediately. We automatically timestamp and log the detection for your records.

3

Optional: We act for you

Don't want to deal with distributors? We report the bad placement on your behalf and document it.

4

Appeal ammunition

If takedown strikes anyway, you have timestamped proof you took preventive action. Crucial for winning appeals.

Evidence Package Example

Auto-generated
Detection Time: 2024-03-15 14:32:07 UTC
Playlist: "Viral Hits 2024" (ID: spotify:playlist:xxx)
Risk Score: 94/100 (High)
Flags: Bot followers, Velocity spike
Action Taken: Reported to DistroKid 14:35:12

Why evidence matters

Distributors and Spotify prioritize artists who prove they took preventive action. Our logs show you weren't complicit—you were a victim who acted fast.

Questions

How is this different from Artist.tools?
Artist.tools alerts you to bad playlists. StreamShield alerts you and optionally reports them on your behalf, plus maintains timestamped evidence logs crucial for overturning takedowns. We're also significantly cheaper during our introductory period.
What happens after I sign up?
We immediately scan your historical catalog for existing risks. Then 24/7 monitoring begins. You'll receive your first status report within 2 hours. If we find existing bad playlists, we alert you same day with disavow templates.
Can you guarantee no takedowns?
No one can guarantee Spotify's actions. What we guarantee is detection speed, documented preventive action, and evidence packages that have successfully overturned 3 takedowns to date. You're buying time and ammunition, not immunity.
Do you store my Spotify login?
Never. We use Spotify's official OAuth. You authorize read-only access, we get a token, you can revoke it anytime from your Spotify account settings. We never see or store your password.
