Our system creates a unique fingerprint of your audio and compares it against music databases.
We check your audio against recordings known to trigger Facebook's audio detection systems.
Based on the match confidence, we estimate the likelihood of muted or restricted audio.
If a match is found, we suggest similar Facebook-ready tracks you can use without risk.
Strong match found. This track will likely be muted, blocked, or restricted on Facebook.
Partial match detected. The track may cause issues depending on Facebook's content policies.
No match found in our databases. This doesn't guarantee safety — some tracks aren't indexed yet.
Similar-vibe tracks from Mubert that are cleared for Facebook use, with proper licensing.
Facebook has all kinds of audiences hungry for your content. But they will not get it if it is banned for using copyrighted music. This happens when the platform's automated algorithms identify protected tracks used without a valid license. The good news is you can tell whether the audio track is safe to use, and our tool is made exactly for that. This article explains how the Facebook copyright checker functions and how you can use it now to protect your media from getting your account penalized.
Social media platforms use advanced algorithms to protect the rights of artists and labels. When you post a video, these systems instantly analyze the background sound to see if it matches any protected entries in their database. If a match is found, the platform can take several actions that negatively impact your reach, including muting your media, blocking the post in some regions, completely removing it, getting you a strike, or banning your account for good. Using this free online tool from Mubert allows you to identify potential issues early.
It's worth mentioning that the algorithms inspecting your content somewhat differ across various platforms. That's why we developed separate tools for the most popular services, like Instagram Reels Copyright Checker, which allows you to keep your reels safe from being flagged for using copyrighted music.
The technology behind our tool is designed to provide immediate feedback on the safety of your tracks. When you perform a scan, the system breaks down the audio into digital signatures. These signatures are compared against a massive library of registered works. If the checker finds a match, it provides details about the owner and the specific risk associated with using that piece.
To get the most out of our system, you should understand how it handles different media types:
Our algorithm is built to detect even small fragments of protected works that might otherwise go unnoticed from short clips on TikTok or long livestreams on Twitch.
Preparing your media for publication is a straightforward process when you have the right tools. You do not need deep technical knowledge to verify your files; the Mubert interface is designed to be intuitive and fast.
The process of checking your file is simple:
No worries if the verdict is not pleasant, because with it, our system automatically provides you with a selection of tracks with a similar vibe from Mubert's library.
There are several alert levels, so in case your audio is recognised as unsafe to use, you see the degree of risk. This may depend on the popularity of the track or the presence of effects or edits in it.
In conclusion, taking a moment to verify your media before it goes live is a good practice if you post regularly. It prevents the frustration of seeing your hard work hidden or silenced by automated filters. Check your music now for free.
Facebook uses Rights Manager and other automated tools to detect copyrighted music. If a match is found, the audio may be muted, the video blocked, or restricted in certain regions to protect rights holders.
Yes. Detection can happen at any time after upload. Some videos publish normally and later get muted or restricted. Checking your audio before posting helps avoid re-editing later.
No. It just means we didn't find a match in the databases we check. Some tracks aren't indexed or are heavily modified. To minimize risk, use a licensed replacement.
No. This is a risk estimate based on matches to known recordings. Facebook's enforcement can vary by region, account type, and content context.
Yes, with the right terms. After sign-up, tracks are free to use for non-monetized Facebook content. Monetized use requires a paid license (see licensing options).
If you earn from ads, branded content, paid promotions, or commercial campaigns on Facebook, treat it as monetized/commercial use.
