Pex (part of Vobile since April 2025) is a content-identification and digital-rights technology company whose APIs identify recordings, compositions, and AI-generated music across digital platforms. Pex operates three developer-facing APIs: a Discovery / DRM & CMS API (api.pex.com) for managing rights assets, monitoring infringing copies, and running takedowns; a real-time Search API for automatic content recognition (ACR) that fingerprints and matches audio even when it has been sped up, slowed down, pitch-shifted, or partially obscured against a registry of 120M+ indexed recordings; and an AI Song Detector API (api.ae.pex.com) that classifies whether a track was generated by an AI music model such as Suno, Udio, Boomy, or ElevenLabs. Pex also publishes a hosted MCP server (mcp.pex.com) exposing the AI Song Detector to agents. Customers include streaming platforms, distributors, publishers, production-music libraries, and collection societies.
