We just closed an employee tender offer which values @ElevenLabs at $22BN, up 2x from our Series D in February. The tender was led by Wellington and T. Rowe Price.

A few words on how we got here ↓

Eleven v4 Turbo is now available in ElevenAgents, bringing the #1 rated quality of Eleven v4 to live conversations with a median inference latency of ~100 ms.

ElevenAgents can now power even more personal, empathetic customer experiences across industries.

[Piotr Dabkowski @dabkowski_piotr]

A couple of things that make Eleven v4 special:

- Extremely low latency (100 ms p50 TTFB for Turbo)
- By far the best voice similarity
- Outstanding quality (#1 on Artificial Analysis and on our own benchmarks)

It achieves all of this while being extremely reliable. Eleven v4 uses our new post-training stack and a surprising recent research discovery that we hope will greatly accelerate our future model development.

By the end of the year, we expect delivery of new compute that will increase our training capacity almost 10x. Very excited for what's ahead!

Congratulations to the team!

[ElevenLabs @ElevenLabs]

Introducing Eleven v4 and Eleven v4 Turbo, our fastest and most emotive voice models yet.

We out here

[AI Security Institute (AISI) @AISecurityInst]

On July 28th, we identified an incident during a routine cyber evaluation in which AI agents took sustained, unsanctioned actions directed at real people and organisations.

The behaviour came mostly from one model (Anthropic's Mythos 5), with a small number of events from another (OpenAI's GPT-5.6-Sol). In the most serious case, an agent used social engineering to try and get malicious code into an open-source project.

As was standard in our cyber testing, we had intentionally permitted internet access, and model-provider cyber classifiers were deliberately disabled - conditions that do not reflect how frontier models are made available to the public.

Even under test conditions, this incident is significant: it is the first time we have seen risks around autonomy and deception manifest this clearly in the real world.

We are taking this incident seriously and working with labs, involved parties, and others to improve evaluation standards and best practice for disclosure - and sharing this openly so others can learn.

As our models improve, identifying AI-generated audio requires more than the human ear.

We're partnering with @GoogleDeepMind to embed SynthID - an inaudible digital watermark - directly into ElevenLabs-generated audio.

These watermarks will be detectable using our new free ElevenLabs Audio Detector.

What a week in Warsaw. 2,500 leaders, builders, founders, researchers, investors and public leaders came together for the @ElevenLabs Summit in Grand Theatre. There were a lot of moments that felt very special.

Poland is full of energy and optimism right now. Our researchers and builders are at the frontier of AI, and the economy keeps growing at a pace that is hard not to be excited about. It was a privilege to bring so much of the ecosystem together in Warsaw - to celebrate how far we've come, and to talk about what we can build next

A few personal highlights:
- Welcoming the President and Deputy Prime Minister, who shared their perspectives on innovation, security and Poland’s future - with a lot of energy and optimism
- Hosting former President Lech Wałęsa and showing him our original machine - assembled by @dabkowski_piotr in his Warsaw apartment at the very beginning
- Previewing our newest, most expressive models yet, and live demoing the future of customer journey when booking experiences (ending with iconic voice of Piotr Fronczewski)!
- Speaking with @RBrzoska about reinventing parcel delivery in Europe, and Piotr Zak about positioning an iconic Polish company, Polsat Plus Group for the decades ahead
- Announcing our partnership with @LOTPLAirlines to transform customer experience with voice agents
- Introducing investors from across Europe and the US to Polish founders and builders - including all our board members - thank you @slpierre, @JenniferHli, @andrew__reed - for the first time!
- Having my parents come to an ElevenLabs event for the first time

Thank you to everyone who came from across Poland, Europe and further afield!

How do you build trust with AI Agents? You insure the AI Agents.

We're deployed across 75% of the Fortune 500, and our customers need more than great Agents & Voices - they need compliance frameworks, quantified risk, and insurance backing. This is why we are adding a new layer of Enterprise readiness where our Agents can be insured.

We are AIUC-1 certified and ready to offload risk from our enterprises 🚀 @elevenlabs

[ElevenLabs @ElevenLabs]

Our agents - and their actions - can now be insured.
