Text-to-speech tool that let you convert any writing into professional audio, fastElevenLabs dubs its product to offer the “most realistic and versatile AI speech software, ever” — delivering rich and lifelike voices to creators and publishers. You can test that claim right on the homepage of their website.
The company’s Speech Synthesis is powered by their proprietary deep learning model to allow users to voice anything from a single sentence to a whole book at a fraction of the time and cost traditionally involved in recording.
This creation process happens inside ElevenLabs’ Voice Lab, which lets users clone voices from samples, clone their own voice, or design entirely new synthetic voices from scratch.
The tool is meant, among other things, to help businesses grow their audiences by expanding into audio. In that sense, it lets them quickly generate top-quality spoken audio in any voice, with the underlying algorithms rendering human intonation and inflections with rock-solid fidelity and adjustments based on context.
ElevenLabs is used for storytelling, reading news articles, and audiobooks.
