Updated over a week ago

TikTok is launching TikTok Scanning, a new service that identifies which sound recordings are suitable for scanning UGC (User Generated Content) videos to apply either a monetize or block policy.

Purpose:

  • Allows music to be available on TikTok even if it does not comply with all UGC requirements.

  • Ensures tracks distributed without scanning rights can still be included in TikTok videos but will not claim other UGC videos.
