What is ElevenLabs?
ElevenLabs is an AI audio platform for generating lifelike speech. It also handles voice cloning, dubbing, transcription, music and sound effects, and it can run conversational voice agents. It has 17,500+ voices in its library and supports speech in 90+ languages. ElevenLabs builds its own models, including Eleven v4 for expressive speech, Eleven Flash for low-latency use, and Scribe for transcription.
The product comes in three parts. ElevenCreative is an editor for voiceovers, audiobooks, podcasts, music, sound effects, images and video. ElevenAgents lets teams configure, test and monitor voice and chat agents across phone, chat, email and WhatsApp. ElevenAPI gives developers SDK access to text to speech, speech to text, music, dubbing and agents.
