About ElevenLabs

Can shape regional accents. Voice cloning and Voice Design.

ElevenLabs is a speech generation service with many tools for shaping the voice and the delivery itself. Voices can be cloned from a short recording, and Voice Design creates a new voice from a written description of age, gender, accent and tone. In v3, tags such as [whispers] and [laughs] add whispering or laughter inside the text. Separate models cover expressive dialogue, long-form narration and low-latency use, and it works both in a web app (Studio for long projects) and through an API. Audio made on the free plan is for non-commercial use only.
