Introducing ElevenLabs Eleven-V3 on WaveSpeedAI: The Most Expressive Text-to-Speech Model Yet

The world of AI-powered voice generation has just taken a massive leap forward. We’re excited to announce that ElevenLabs Eleven-V3, the most expressive text-to-speech model ever created, is now available on WaveSpeedAI. This groundbreaking model doesn’t just convert text to speech—it brings your words to life with sighs, whispers, laughter, and genuine emotional depth that was previously impossible with AI.

Whether you’re creating audiobooks, producing video content, developing games, or building the next generation of voice-enabled applications, Eleven-V3 opens up possibilities that simply didn’t exist before.

What is ElevenLabs Eleven-V3?

Eleven-V3 represents a fundamental reimagining of what text-to-speech can achieve. Built from the ground up by ElevenLabs, this model was specifically designed to close the “expressiveness gap” that has long separated AI voices from human speech.

Unlike previous TTS models that produce flat, robotic output, Eleven-V3 generates voices that genuinely react and respond. The model understands context, interprets emotional cues, and produces speech that feels authentically human. When the text calls for hesitation, the voice hesitates. When a character should laugh, the laughter sounds natural and spontaneous.

The result? Audio output that’s not just technically accurate—it’s emotionally compelling.

Key Features

Revolutionary Audio Tags

The standout innovation in Eleven-V3 is its audio tags system. By embedding simple tags directly in your text, you can control exactly how the AI voice performs:

• Emotional expressions: [excited], [nervous], [resigned tone], [cheerfully]
• Non-verbal sounds: [sighs], [laughs], [gasps], [gulps]
• Delivery control: [whispers], [shouts], [pauses], [stammers]
• Layered effects: Combine multiple tags like [hesitant][nervous] for nuanced delivery

For example, you could write:

"[whispers] Something's coming... [sighs] I can feel it."

And the AI will whisper the first phrase, then deliver a natural sigh before completing the sentence with the appropriate emotional weight.

70+ Language Support

Eleven-V3 supports over 70 languages with automatic accent adaptation. Whether you need English, Japanese, German, Spanish, Portuguese, French, or any of dozens of other languages, the model delivers natural, native-sounding speech.

Flexible Stability Modes

Choose the right balance for your project:

• Creative Mode: Maximum expressiveness for artistic projects (may require more prompt refinement)
• Natural Mode: Balanced expressiveness and accuracy for most use cases
• Robust Mode: Highly stable output for professional applications

Extensive Voice Library

Access a rich library of built-in voices, from professional narrators to character voices. Each voice can be further customized using the similarity and stability parameters to achieve exactly the tone you need.

Real-World Use Cases
