The **ElevenLabs** text-to-speech {% term integrations %} adds support for [ElevenLabs](https://elevenlabs.io/) as text-to-speech to read a text with natural sounding voices.
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- You need an ElevenLabs account to use this integration. A free account suffices for basic usage.
|
|
- For custom voices or more quota you need a subscription.
|
|
- You need your API key from the ElevenLabs website.
|
|

|
|
|
|
For a description of which voices are available for use, check your VoiceLab voices.
|
|
|
|
To see the available models and their benefits, check the [models documentation](https://elevenlabs.io/docs/speech-synthesis/models).

|
## Action speak
|
|
|
|
The `tts.speak` action is the modern way to use TTS. Add the `speak` action, select the entity for your ElevenLabs TTS (it's named ElevenLabs by default), select the media player entity or group to send the TTS audio to, and enter the message to speak.
|
|
|
|
For more options about `speak`, see the Speak section on the main [TTS](/integrations/tts/#service-speak) building block page.
|
|
|
|
In YAML, your action will look like this:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
action: tts.speak
|
|
target:
|
|
entity_id: tts.elevenlabs
|
|
data:
|
|
media_player_entity_id: media_player.giant_tv
|
|
message: Hello, can you hear me now?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
