Natural-sounding AI voices for narration, dubbing and cloning, with real emotion in the delivery.

What is ElevenLabs?

The first thing you notice with ElevenLabs is how human it sounds. Paste in a script, choose a voice from the library, and the narration comes back with pauses, emphasis and tone that make it easy to forget nobody recorded it.

Beyond text-to-speech, we found plenty to explore: cloning your own voice from samples, dubbing videos into other languages while keeping the speaker's character, and generating sound effects from a description. Developers get an API that powers a lot of voice apps and agents.

Voice cloning comes with responsibility, and ElevenLabs requires consent safeguards for it. The free tier is great for trying things out, with plans from $5 per month, but character limits mean long audiobooks or heavy production work push you into higher tiers.
