Free Spotify Bot Checker for Artists

The checker uses artist.tools data to identify known high-risk playlists associated with your artist profile. When flagged playlists are found, you can review those results and the suggested next steps.

This is a playlist-risk check, not an audit of every stream or listener. It does not connect to your private Spotify for Artists analytics or calculate an exact percentage of fake streams. Coverage depends on the information available to artist.tools.

This checker starts with an artist and helps you find flagged playlists associated with their music. It does not accept a playlist URL for a standalone playlist scan.

For a specific playlist you are considering, use the artist.tools Spotify playlist bot checker. Review the playlist before submitting music, and check any warnings alongside the information you have about its curator and promotion methods.

A result with no flagged playlists means the checker found no known high-risk playlists associated with your artist profile in the available artist.tools data.

Our team continually reviews playlist activity and investigates suspicious patterns. If you notice an unusual change in Spotify for Artists, save the relevant playlist links and contact us so our team can take a closer look.

Save the playlist links and a screenshot of your results. Compare them with your Spotify for Artists data, noting when unusual activity started and which tracks were affected.

If you believe a playlist is generating artificial streams, use Spotify's playlist reporting tool, which requires Spotify for Artists access. Contact your distributor if you are concerned, particularly if you received an artificial-streaming notice. If the curator has public contact details, you can also request removal.

Being added to a playlist does not by itself show that you requested or paid for that activity. Keep a record of what happened and the steps you took.

No. This tool identifies playlist risk; it does not verify individual listening sessions. Use its findings alongside your own streaming data rather than treating it as a count of fake streams.

Spotify defines artificial streams as activity that does not reflect genuine listening intent, including manipulation through bots or scripts. Read Spotify's artificial-streaming guidance for its current advice and policies.

SubmitLink was created by the same team that made artist.tools, our sister company. Our team specializes in auditing playlists for bot activity, artificial streams and artificial growth. This checker brings that expertise and artist.tools data to artists for free.

We guarantee that playlists offered for submission through SubmitLink are bot-free. Every playlist goes through our team's review and ongoing monitoring using artist.tools data. For broader Spotify research or a closer look at an individual playlist, explore artist.tools.

A bot check can help you investigate risk, but it does not choose the right audience for your next release. Before submitting, look for playlists that fit your music and understand what the service is charging for.

With SubmitLink's Spotify playlist promotion, you pay for curator consideration, not guaranteed placement or streams. You can also explore free playlist submissions. Avoid offers promising a fixed number of streams or guaranteed playlist placements.
