🚨 Speech-DF-Arena Update 🚨
We will be temporarily pausing the current phase of the Speech-DF-Arena leaderboard.

This pause will allow us to prepare the next stage of the benchmark with several important updates:

1. New submission policies
2. New evaluation sets for audio deepfake detection
3. New and updated leaderboards

Important note: systems submitted before previous pause notification (14th April 2026), which are under validation) will still be validated, and their results will be added to the leaderboard in the coming weeks.

Our goal is to make Speech-DF-Arena more robust, transparent, and useful for the research community working on speech deepfake detection and trustworthy speech AI.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed, submitted systems, and followed the leaderboard so far.
Stay tuned ! We will be back soon with more updates !!!

The advent of machine generated speech calls for dedicated research to develop countermeasure systems to protect against their misuse through deepfakes. The Speech DF arena leaderboard provides a standardized benchmarking platform for both commercial and open source systems to compare different detection approaches and ranks them using standard metrics. This leaderboard is an evolving inititatie where new systems and attacks can can be added upon request to keep it up to date with the latest advancements in the field. Check out the Submit Your System section to learn how to submit your system.

Below we report the Equal Error Rate (EER %), Accuracy (%) and F1 scores. The table consists of both pooled and average results. Pooled results are computed by using thresholds obtained across all datasets, while average results are computed by simply averaging the dataset level results. We rank the systems according to the Pooled results
