Key Features of Eleven v4
Give each line the emotion it needs
Eleven v4 reads your script and figures out the feeling behind each line. An ad can sound warm and welcoming, a story can sound tense, and a character can sound excited or worried. Take the line "You came back." In a happy reunion, Eleven v4 says it with joy. In an angry argument, the same words come out cold and sharp. You get the right feeling in every line without recording anything yourself.
Try it NowTell the voice how to say each line
You can write short directions in square brackets right inside your script. Type [whispers] before a quiet line, [laughs] after a joke, or [pauses] before a big reveal. You can even add sounds to the audio, like [light rain] or [phone buzzing]. ElevenLabs built Eleven v4 to follow these directions more closely than its earlier voice models. You decide exactly how each moment of the script sounds.
Try it NowChange a line and keep the same voice
Eleven v4 keeps a speaker's voice steady when you make a line again. Say you rewrite a character's last line in a scene. The new version comes out in the same voice as the rest of the scene. Long scripts stay steady too, because each new part keeps the pace and tone of the part before it. You can fix one line at a time and leave the rest of your audio as it is.
Try it NowWrite a conversation between several characters
Eleven v4 can voice a scene with two or more characters, each in a different voice. Write who says what, pick a voice for each speaker, and Eleven v4 turns it into one back-and-forth conversation. The characters respond to each other's tone, so the scene sounds like real people talking. That makes Eleven v4 a handy AI dialogue generator for podcast-style videos, short films, and animated series.
Try it NowSpeak in more than 90 languages
Eleven v4 speaks more than 90 languages, from English and Spanish to Hindi, Arabic, and Bengali. Write your script in another language, and the same voice reads it fluently with a natural accent for that language. Your ad can speak to buyers in every country where you sell. You can reach a new market without hiring a voice actor for each language.
Try it NowRead your scripts in your own voice
Use OpenArt's Voice Clone tool to make a copy of your voice from a short audio sample. Eleven v4 then reads any script in a voice that sounds like you, with your tone and your timing. Type your scripts and get narration for a whole week of videos in one sitting. Your voice stays the same from one video to the next.

Best Use Cases for Eleven v4
Make ad reads that fit your campaign
Marketers and agencies can turn a product script into an AI voice over that matches the campaign. Say you are launching a water bottle. Write a 20-second script with [warm, friendly] at the start, and Eleven v4 reads it like a friendly host showing off a product. If the brand team wants more energy, change the direction to [excited] and make it again. You can also make the same ad in Spanish or French for other markets.
Try it NowGive your film and animation characters their voices
Filmmakers and animators can hear their characters speak before they book a recording studio. Write the scene with each character's lines and a direction for how they feel, like [nervous] or [angry, shouting]. Eleven v4 plays out the whole conversation, with each character in their own voice. If one line sounds wrong, rewrite it and make just that line again, and the character keeps the same voice.
Try it NowNarrate YouTube and social videos in the right mood
Creators need narration for every upload, and Eleven v4 works as an AI narrator that changes mood from video to video. A travel vlog might need a calm, happy voice, while a true crime short needs a low, tense one. Write the script, add a direction like [calm] or [tense, quiet] at the top, and Eleven v4 matches it. Use your cloned voice from Voice Clone so every video sounds like you, even on days you cannot record. You can post on schedule with narration that fits each video.
Try it NowExplain lessons and tutorials step by step
Educators and tutorial creators can turn written lessons into clear spoken explanations. Write one short paragraph for each step, like "Click Settings, then turn on dark mode." Eleven v4 reads each step in a calm, clear voice that is easy to follow. Long lessons work too, since one script can hold up to 10,000 characters. If a step in your product changes, rewrite that one paragraph and make it again in the same voice. You can also make the same lesson in another language for students around the world.
