Recognition database: AudD says its database contains 160 million songs.
Recognition method: AudD says its music recognition uses its own neural-network audio fingerprinting technology.
Returned metadata: Recognition results can include artist, title, album, label, release date, and identifiers such as ISRC and UPC.
Stream monitoring: AudD monitors radio stations and audio streams around the clock and can return results by webhook or long polling.
Large-file capability: The enterprise endpoint processes files of any length and returns recognized tracks with timestamps.
Supported integrations: AudD lists official SDKs for Python, Node.js/TypeScript, Go, Rust, PHP, Swift, Kotlin, C#/.NET, Java, C, and C++, plus an MCP server for AI agents.
Streaming integrations: AudD says its stream recognition can identify music from Twitch, YouTube, or other stream URLs, and offers a Twitch extension and embeddable widget.
