ElevenLabs offers advanced AI voice synthesis technology, enabling users to create realistic voiceovers and audio content for various applications, enhancing media production and accessibility.
ElevenLabs is an AI voice synthesis platform that generates lifelike speech with emotional depth and nuanced delivery across 70+ languages[1][3]. The platform offers multiple voice creation options, including access to 5000+ pre-built voices, voice cloning capabilities through Instant and Professional Voice Cloning, and Voice Design—a generative tool for creating entirely synthetic voices by selecting parameters like age, gender, and accent[3][4][6]. Its most advanced offering, Eleven v3 (alpha), delivers unprecedented expressiveness through inline audio tags that control emotion, delivery direction, and multi-speaker conversations, enabling users to create dynamic, contextually-aware dialogue that sounds natural and human[1][3]. The tool serves creators, media professionals, developers, and enterprises—from content creators producing voiceovers and audiobooks to developers building voice agents and applications requiring advanced audio models[3]. ElevenLabs distinguishes itself through its focus on emotional expressiveness and controllable performance, offering robust APIs and SDKs for seamless integration, along with complementary features like Speech to Speech conversion for voice transformation and a Speech to Text API with 98% accuracy[3][8]. The platform is trusted by major creators and enterprises, combining studio-quality audio generation with accessibility features that democratize professional-grade voice synthesis for diverse applications.

High risk across multiple dimensions. Only use with public, non-sensitive data.
The documents do not explicitly state whether ElevenLabs trains on user data submitted through its services. The CCPA Notice mentions 'research and development of AI models' as a purpose for processing personal information, and the Privacy Policy reference suggests data may be used for model training, but no clear opt-out or explicit prohibition is stated in the provided documents. This vague language warrants a moderate concern score.
“[CCPA Notice] 'For the research and development of AI models' listed as a purpose of processing Personal Information, but no explicit training prohibition or opt-out mechanism detailed in provided documents.”
The Image & Video Terms grant ElevenLabs a broad, perpetual, sublicensable license to user-generated content. Specifically, if users share output publicly, ElevenLabs obtains 'a worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid-up, transferable, and sublicensable (through multiple tiers) license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works of, distribute, publicly perform and display, and otherwise exploit the Shared Output for any lawful purpose,' including commercial activities and sublicensing to third parties.
“[Image & Video Terms] 'ElevenLabs a worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid-up, transferable, and sublicensable (through multiple tiers) license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works of, distribute, publicly perform and display, and otherwise exploit the Shared Output for any lawful purpose.'”
The documents reference third-party sharing in limited contexts (e.g., payment processors like Stripe, third-party model providers for Image & Video, telecommunications providers for Reception). However, the documents do not provide comprehensive detail on all third parties with whom data is shared, sub-processor lists, or explicit DPA requirements for all sub-processors. The CCPA Notice mentions sharing with 'advertising vendors' and 'parties to a corporate transaction,' but broader sharing practices are not fully detailed.
“[CCPA Notice] 'Advertising vendors (e.g., affiliate marketing companies, tracking technology providers)' and '[Image & Video Terms] 'Image & Video is powered in part by one or more third party model providers' but comprehensive sub-processor list not provided.”
The CCPA Notice states 'ElevenLabs will not keep data it generates about your voice longer than 3 years after your last interaction with us, except as required by law,' providing a specific retention period for voice data. However, retention periods for other data types (text inputs, usage logs, etc.) are not clearly specified in the provided documents. The vague language 'except as required by law' and lack of comprehensive retention schedules warrant moderate concern.
“[CCPA Notice] 'ElevenLabs will not keep data it generates about your voice longer than 3 years after your last interaction with us, except as required by law.'”
The Productions Terms explicitly state that 'Customer will own all right, title, and interest in and to all Revised Output,' with ElevenLabs retaining only rights to its pre-existing IP and methodologies. The Music Terms also confirm users own generated outputs subject to plan restrictions. This clear statement of customer ownership of generated content supports a score of 0.
“[Productions Terms] 'Customer will own all right, title, and interest in and to all Revised Output' and '[Music Terms] 'Customer owns all right, title, and interest in and to all Revised Output.'”
The provided documents do not explicitly mention SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, or other major compliance certifications. The Reception Terms explicitly state 'The Reception Offering is not designed to meet HIPAA requirements,' and the Image & Video Terms disclaim compliance with PCI-DSS. No security certifications or trust page is referenced in the provided documents, warranting a moderate concern score for absence of documented compliance.
“[Reception Terms] 'The Reception Offering is not designed to meet HIPAA requirements, and ElevenLabs makes no representations or warranties regarding such compliance' and '[Image & Video Terms] 'The Reception Offering is not designed to comply with payment card industry standards (including PCI-DSS).'”
