AudioStack has partnered with Adclear to integrate its API into our end-to-end audio production platform.

This will make it quicker, easier and more reliable to create audio content that’s compliant with advertising regulations in your local territory.

By making regulatory feedback more efficient for audio creators – even for those with little exposure to advertising regulations – it will significantly speed up the process of turning a concept into a campaign that’s ready to air (all while minimizing risk).

What is Adclear?

Adclear is an AI-powered compliance platform that analyzes ad content to ensure it conforms to diverse advertising standards, from the ASA to the FCA. They work with the leading FinTechs and Banks in the UK, but their technology can be applied to any regulated industry or body. 

That’s a TLDR. You can learn more about Adclear here.

Why does this matter?

AudioStack’s mission is to help users create quality audio fast. With AudioStack’s end-to-end production platform, audio creation takes place far faster than it would in a studio.

However, when addressing campaigns at scale, manual QA – checking audio ads for quality, the read, and compliance – slows down the time it takes for agencies, brands and publishers to go from brief to first impression.

But make no mistake: compliance is non-negotiable, and even advertisers with good intentions can fall foul of the regulations if they don’t have systems in place to ensure their ad content is compliant.

If it isn’t, the risk isn’t just a slow re-approval process or a fine… but a complete paralysis of marketing operations whilst investigators look into the failure.

AudioStack already has tools to make this comprehensive set of QA checks far less painful. And with Adclear, we’re elevating the speed and confidence with which teams can remain compliant.

How will it work?

Adclear’s platform is integrated into AudioStack via its API. 

Currently in beta, Adclear will progressively be integrated as a hands-off check that identifies compliance issues when you provide a script or a product description.

This is based on both universal guidelines (such as IAB tags) and local regulatory requirements (such as those imposed by the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority [FCA]) and detects incompliant or problematic content across fields ranging from gambling, pharmaceuticals and finance, as well as advertising standards on inappropriate content or competitor claims.

When a review flag is raised, the platform will explain why ad content has been flagged, as well as a recommended remedial action.

This will make it easy for users, even those with little knowledge of regulatory requirements, to avoid going on ‘autopilot’ when checking content for compliance,.

The result is great-sounding creative that won’t fall foul of advertising standards.

The vision

AudioStack and Adclear share a fundamental commitment to trust, safety and responsibility in the AI space. To that end, we’ve jointly sought to play a greater role in regulatory conversations regarding AI content creation, appearing together at Ofcom and DSIT roundtables in the UK, and industry events elsewhere.

Of the partnership, Joe Jordan, Co-Founder at Adclear says:

"We’re thrilled to partner with AudioStack to bring automated ad compliance directly into the creative process. At Adclear, our mission is to make trust and safety seamless – not a bottleneck. By integrating our technology into AudioStack’s platform, we’re empowering creators to produce compliant, high-quality audio faster and with greater confidence. Together, we’re setting a new standard for responsible innovation in advertising."

Peadar Coyle, CTO of AudioStack, says:

"At AudioStack, we are delighted to partner with Adclear to enhance the customer experience and reduce compliance back-and-forth, making audio production with AI even faster and safer. We have taken trust and safety seriously since day 1, and are delighted to be rolling this out soon to customers throughout the world"
