What's New in ElevenReader

We launched ElevenReader with a simple goal: make reading effortless, immersive, and accessible — powered by the world’s most advanced AI voice model.

Since launch, users around the world have used ElevenReader to listen to almost anything — PDFs, ePubs, articles, text files, and our growing library of independent and published titles. And we’re just getting started: new features are on the way to make your listening experience even richer, more seamless, and more personalized.

To support a more immersive and premium listening experience, we’re introducing flexible subscription plans that offer greater access, convenience, and control — while continuing our commitment to a free plan for everyone.

How Listening Hours Work

You use listening hours when ElevenReader generates audio from your personal content—like articles, PDFs, or ePub files.

The amount of hours consumed depends on the length of the text and the speed at which you listen. For example, listening at 2x speed will convert content into audio faster, using hours more quickly.

Importantly, you’re only using hours during the initial generation. After that, you can replay your generated audio as many times as you like, without using up any more hours.

You can also buy additional listening hours in one-time purchase packs if you go above the amount allowed in your subscription plan — letting you only pay for the amount of hours you need.

Hour Packs for Extra Listening

Need more time without upgrading? Prefer to buy one-time instead of a subscription? You can purchase hour packs anytime.

Offline Mode is Here

One of our most requested features — Offline Mode — is now available for subscribers.

Offline mode lets you download audio in advance of listening without internet service. It’s great for listening on a flight or commuting on the subway.

We’re bringing offline mode to ElevenReader as a premium feature because it involves generating and downloading a sizable amount of audio before being offline. This means your subscription powers the text-to-audio conversion that lets you listen to audio fully uninterrupted while offline.

• Plus subscribers get 3 offline downloads per month
• Ultra subscribers get 10 offline downloads per month

**Downloading means saving audio for listening offline, not exporting audio files. Monthly limits are subject to change.

Free & Premium Content

All users get unlimited access to thousands of free books and audio articles in our library with no hourly limits. All yours, no hours needed.

GenFM

With GenFM, your content becomes smart, conversational podcasts – narrated by ultra-realistic AI co-hosts.

• Free users get 2 episodes/week
• Plus subscribers get 20 episodes/month
• Ultra subscribers get 50 episodes/month

Advanced Playback Controls – No Paywalls

We believe great listening shouldn’t be locked behind a paywall. ElevenReader includes powerful, customizable features for everyone:

• Change playback speed (up to 4.0x)
• Unlimited file imports
• Bookmark key moments
• Sleep timer
• Listen in 32 languages with natural-sounding, lifelike audio

These tools are free for all users, because how you listen should be up to you.

What’s Next

We are continuing to build. From more powerful listening features, improved voice models, an expanded content library, and personalized recommendations, there is so much more coming to ElevenReader this year.

Our goal is to make content universally accessible in any language and in any voice — and to continue delivering exceptional value for every user. We’re excited to have you along for the journey.
