About ElevenLabs

ElevenLabs is an advanced AI audio research and product company that specializes in high-fidelity speech synthesis and conversational AI. The platform provides users with the ability to transform text into lifelike speech that captures human-like nuance, emotion, and cadence across more than 70 languages. By developing proprietary foundational models, ElevenLabs offers a suite of tools that go beyond simple voice generation, including an AI music generator, custom sound effect creation, and a highly accurate speech-to-text transcription engine. This holistic approach to audio allows users to create entire soundscapes from a single interface. The platform is organized into three primary ecosystems: ElevenCreative, ElevenAgents, and the ElevenAPI. ElevenCreative serves as a production hub for marketers and content creators, featuring tools like the Dubbing Studio for automatic video localization and the Voice Library, which contains thousands of unique voices. ElevenAgents is a specialized platform for businesses to build and deploy intelligent conversational bots for customer support via phone, email, and messaging apps. For technical teams, the ElevenAPI provides the infrastructure to integrate these audio capabilities into third-party applications, offering different models optimized for either extreme low latency or maximum expressive quality. This tool is designed for a diverse range of users, from independent creators and authors to large-scale global enterprises. Solo podcasters and YouTubers use it to generate professional-quality narrations and voiceovers, while developers leverage the API to build interactive voice experiences in apps and games. In the corporate sector, companies like Cisco, Disney, and Salesforce use ElevenLabs to localize marketing content and automate customer service interactions. The platform also includes specific programs for startups and nonprofits, providing grants and accessibility licenses to ensure that cutting-edge audio technology is available to those who need it most. ElevenLabs distinguishes itself from other AI voice platforms through its commitment to research-driven quality and a robust safety framework. Unlike basic text-to-speech tools, its Speech-to-Speech technology allows users to maintain the emotional delivery of an original recording while changing the voice itself. To address ethical concerns, the company has implemented a multi-layered safety system that includes an AI Speech Classifier to identify synthetic audio and clear provenance standards. With significant backing from investors like Sequoia Capital and Andreessen Horowitz, the platform continues to evolve, recently releasing Scribe v2 to set new industry benchmarks for transcription accuracy.
