ElevenLabs

A leading AI voice platform: v3 speech synthesis, voice cloning, real-time transcription, voice agents, and music generation, spanning 70+ languages.

ElevenLabs remains the hardest name to sidestep in the AI voice race. In February 2026, the company closed a $500 million funding round at an $11 billion valuation, and its product footprint has long since outgrown simple text-to-speech: speech synthesis, voice cloning, real-time transcription, voice agents, and AI music are now consolidated into three pillars — ElevenAgents, ElevenCreative, and ElevenAPI — serving everyone from individual creators to enterprise call centers.

On the model front, flagship Eleven v3 exited its eight-month alpha and officially hit general availability in February, with audio tags like [laughs] and [whispers] and multi-speaker dialogue as first-class citizens. Paired with support for 70+ languages, its emotional expressiveness still sets the industry benchmark; real-time use cases are handed off to the low-latency Flash and the more stable Multilingual v2. On the transcription side, Scribe v2 Realtime delivers 150ms low latency across 90+ languages and plugs straight into voice agents.

Pricing brought the biggest change of the year. In May, ElevenLabs slashed prices on its self-serve API — TTS down as much as 55%, transcription down 45% — and for the first time introduced subscription-free, pay-as-you-go credits. On the subscription side, tiers range from a free plan to options starting at $5, noticeably lowering the barrier to entry.

Whether you’re producing audiobooks, podcasts, dubbing, or voice-based customer service, ElevenLabs remains the first-choice tool. Just note that v3 doesn’t support real-time use and imposes a character limit per request — for dependable production, we recommend pairing v2 with v3.
