Our most expressive voices yet

ElevenReader with Eleven v4 has helped my focus tremendously. I get so much more reading done, with incredibly natural intonation across everything from novels to academic works.

More consistent, accurate pronunciation 

Our previous models performed well, but could sometimes make mistakes with pronunciation, pacing, or delivery.

ElevenReader is built for listening to entire articles, documents, and books, often for hours at a time. That means getting every sentence, name, pause, and transition right matters.

With Eleven v4, we’ve improved several of the details that become especially important during longer listening sessions:

• More consistent volume across passages
• More accurate pronunciations for difficult words and abbreviations
• Customized controls for Subtle (v2 model) or Balanced and Expressive (v4 model) sound
• Better speaker consistency throughout your content
• More expressive narration that better captures the tone and emotion of what you’re reading

Together, these improvements are another step forward towards making even a 400-page book enjoyable to listen to. You can still add your own pronunciations directly in the app, which also helps us identify new words and phrases for future improvement.
