What about covers for YouTube content?

YouTube has a different system — you upload your cover video to YouTube, the system auto-detects and shares revenue with the songwriter via YouTube Music Publishing. Spilix Cover License is for distributing the track to Spotify/Apple/Tidal etc, not for YouTube videos.
