ElevenLabs is an AI voice and audio platform that lets businesses, developers, and creators generate, clone, and deploy lifelike synthetic voices at scale. Founded in January 2023 (publicly launched), it started with text-to-speech and voice cloning, then expanded into dubbing, transcription, sound effects, AI music, and — most importantly — enterprise conversational voice agents under the ElevenAgents brand. Customers access the tech via API, a self-serve web/mobile app, or a managed services arm called Productions that delivers human-edited dubbing, audiobooks, and localization across 15+ languages. Enterprise buyers include Deutsche Telekom, Revolut, Klarna, Meta, Square, and the Ukrainian Government, who use ElevenLabs for customer support automation, inbound sales, citizen services, and internal training. Over 41% of Fortune 500 companies use the platform. The company is now explicitly positioning itself as the audio interface layer for AI agents — competing directly with Big Tech's native voice offerings.
