ElevenLabs: AI voice synthesis tool available on Swiftask

How did ElevenLabs start?

Foundation and initial funding

Aiming to transform the world of synthetic voices, ElevenLabs was born thanks to Dąbkowski and Staniszewski, inspired by their experiences with disappointing film dubbing. The company quickly gained attention, raising $2 million in pre-seed funding in January 2023, followed by $19 million in June of the same year, reaching a valuation of $100 million. This success is the result of the enthusiasm for AI in Europe and the exceptional expertise of its founders.

Rapid growth and recognition of ElevenLabs 

In January 2024, ElevenLabs raised $80 million in a Series B funding round, bringing its valuation to $1.1 billion. This round, led by top investors such as Andreessen Horowitz and Sequoia Capital, marks a key milestone for the company. It also unveiled new products, such as the Voice Marketplace and AI Dubbing Studio, aimed at enhancing its capabilities and market influence.
