The world's most advanced AI audio platform for lifelike speech, voice cloning, and dubbing.
An entry-level tier for hobbyists and casual users to test AI voice generation and text-to-speech features with strict monthly character caps.
Forever free
Designed for creators, hobbyists, and low-volume content producers needing commercial rights and custom voice cloning.
A high-demand tier tailored for professional YouTubers, authors, and independent content businesses requiring larger character limits and professional voice quality.
Built for scaling content agencies, publishers, and heavy media producers needing extensive character quotas and advanced voice design.
An enterprise-grade volume tier for high-output media companies, e-learning platforms, and global B2B marketing teams.
ElevenLabs meters usage strictly by character count rather than audio duration. Special characters, punctuation, and multi-language scripts can impact the exact conversion efficiency, meaning technical documents or code-heavy text outputs consume character quotas faster than standard prose.
The Free tier restricts audio usage to personal contexts. B2B professionals, freelance creators, and marketers must upgrade to at least the $5 Starter plan to secure a legal commercial use license, making free outputs unusable for monetized client projects or commercial campaigns.
While lower tiers (Starter, Creator) provide basic tools, high-volume B2B platforms building automated text-to-speech features into their own software are structurally forced into the Pro or Scale tiers to obtain the necessary API rate limits and infrastructure stability.
No. The 10,000 character limit is quickly exhausted by even short video scripts or blog posts, making this tier useful solely for testing voice quality before committing to a paid subscription.
At $5/month, this tier is budget-friendly for solo creators. If generating voiceovers automatically saves you 1 hour of recording and editing time per month at a $30 hourly rate, it yields $30 in value, instantly justifying the expense.
Yes, for regular video or audiobook producers. If generating professional voiceovers saves 5 hours of studio recording and manual pitch correction per month at a $40 hourly rate, the $200 value heavily outweighs the $22 monthly fee.
At $99/month, this tier targets scaling operations. If producing 10 hours of localized audio per month replaces external voice actor fees (typically $100+ per finished hour), the subscription pays for itself within a single project.
For large organizations processing thousands of localized user interactions or automated media assets, the $330 monthly cost replaces costly voiceover booking agencies, reducing production cycles from weeks to minutes.
No. ElevenLabs operates on a strict 'use it or lose it' quota model. Your character balance resets to your plan's default allowance on the first day of each billing cycle.
No. Commercial use rights require an active paid subscription, starting from the Starter tier ($5/month). Free tier audio is restricted strictly to non-commercial, personal use.
Professional Voice Cloning allows users to create a hyper-realistic digital replica of an individual's voice using clean, high-grade audio samples. It is available on the Creator tier and above to ensure security and voice fidelity.
