Review by a Growth Engineer

My verdict: the best AI voice synthesis on the market, period.

ElevenLabs generates ultra-realistic voices in 29 languages, and allows you to clone your own voice in minutes. Ideal for creating voiceovers for your videos, podcasts, training, or even personalized voice messages for prospecting.

The free plan (10k characters/month) is generous, the Starter at $5/month is unbeatable. Quality is stunning.

What I like less: watch out for usage rights if you clone voices. And on very large volumes, pricing can add up.

My advice: test the free plan. If you create audio content, you'll adopt ElevenLabs very quickly.

Why add it to your stack?

ElevenLabs has transformed my audio content production. Before, a voiceover required booking a studio or a freelancer. Now, I generate a pro voice in 30 seconds.

The API allows integrating voice synthesis into automated workflows. I use it to generate audio versions of my content, create narrated product demos, or personalize voice messages at scale.

The detailed verdict

Do I really need this?

For those who regularly produce audio content, ElevenLabs quickly becomes indispensable. Voice quality is stunning — hard to distinguish from human on the best options.

It's not critical for everyone, but for content creators, it's a real accelerator.

Does it play nice with my stack?

The API is excellent — well documented, easy to integrate. You can plug voice synthesis into n8n, Make, or your custom scripts without difficulty.

SDKs for popular languages speed up integration. It's one of the best-designed generative AI APIs.

Is it easy to pick up?

Ultra simple. You create an account, choose a voice, generate. No complex configuration, no learning curve.

Voice cloning requires a bit more work (preparing quality samples), but remains accessible. Documentation is clear.

Is the UX any good?

The interface is excellent. You paste your text, choose a voice, generate. Instant preview, stability and clarity control, one-click export.

Voice cloning is impressive: a few minutes of audio is enough. The overall UX is smooth and well thought out.

Is it worth it?

The free plan (10k characters/month) is generous for testing. The Starter at $5/month is unbeatable for regular use. Compared to the cost of a human voiceover ($50-200/piece), it's quickly profitable.

For large volumes, Pro plans become necessary. Pricing scales reasonably with usage.

What I like

  • Ideal for creating voiceovers for videos and podcasts
  • Perfect for online training and audiobooks
  • Excellent for personalized voice prospecting and content creators

What I like less

  • Limited for very specific voices with extreme customization
  • Watch out for extended commercial rights that require checking the Terms of Service
  • Not suitable for very tight budgets on large volumes
