ElevenLabs

ElevenLabs is a voice AI company whose models generate speech that many consider among the most natural available. Its core products include text-to-speech in dozens of languages with control over emotion and delivery, voice cloning that recreates a specific voice from a short sample, a dubbing tool that translates video and audio into other languages while preserving the original speaker's voice and timing, AI-generated sound effects, and a speech-to-text model. Around these, ElevenLabs has built products for specific audiences: a platform for narrating audiobooks and articles, tools for game and film studios, and an API that developers embed into apps. Its fastest-growing area is conversational AI: a platform for building and deploying voice agents that handle phone-based customer support, sales, and internal tasks, with large companies deploying it for first-line support across many languages. ElevenLabs has grown to a valuation around eleven billion dollars and several hundred million dollars in annual recurring revenue, with customers spanning media companies, banks, and governments. It offers a free tier with a monthly character allowance, paid subscriptions for creators and teams that raise limits and add commercial rights and cloning, and usage-based pricing for the API and agent platform.
