ElevenLabs made its biggest move yet beyond voice generation on November 11, 2026. At its New York Summit, the company unveiled a package of 13 new products and upgrades that turns it from a voice toolmaker into an enterprise AI platform — businesses will be able to fine-tune models on their own data, a new ElevenAI app will act as an AI teammate for employees, and voice agents will get memory, routines and a smarter system for routing conversations. An expanded partnership with NVIDIA adds serious compute behind the push.
CEO Mati Staniszewski framed the shift bluntly: conversational agents will become “critical infrastructure for every enterprise, as essential as cloud or payments” within a few years. “Our mission at ElevenLabs is to solve human-technology interaction, and for the first time, it’s solvable,” he said at the summit.
Key Takeaways
- What happened: ElevenLabs unveiled 13 new products and upgrades at its New York Summit on November 11, 2026.
- ElevenAI: A new app that listens to spoken conversations, including in-person meetings, and turns them into notes, summaries and action items. Free early access opened with the announcement.
- Custom models: Selected enterprises will be able to fine-tune open-source language models and ElevenLabs voice models using data from their own live deployments.
- NVIDIA deal: NVIDIA’s Nemotron 3.5 Super VL models are now available in ElevenAgents, and ElevenLabs is adding 15 MW of NVIDIA Vera Rubin compute capacity.
- Voice agents: ElevenAgents gains Memory, Routines and a new Interaction Engine that manages turn-taking, interruptions and model selection.
ElevenAI: An AI Teammate That Listens to Meetings
For employees rather than customers, Staniszewski previewed ElevenAI, a new app that listens to spoken conversations — including in-person meetings — and produces notes, summaries and action items. Dictation and meeting notes use Scribe v3, which ElevenLabs describes as its recorded-audio transcription model covering 102 languages.
Free early access to ElevenAI opened with the announcement, so anyone can try the meeting-notes experience now rather than waiting for a wider rollout. It is the most consumer-facing piece of the summit package, and the one most likely to reach ordinary users first.
Custom Models Tuned on Your Own Data
The most consequential announcement for businesses is model customization. In the coming months, selected enterprises will work directly with ElevenLabs researchers to fine-tune selected open-source language models and ElevenLabs’ own voice models using data from their live deployments.
The idea is simple: a voice agent that has learned from how your own customers actually talk will perform better than a generic one. Companies will be able to optimize for specific metrics, such as customer satisfaction scores, and build reinforcement-learning stacks tailored to their own needs. There is a catch worth noting. The customization work is rolling out to selected enterprises first, and it begins “in the coming months” — it is a roadmap item, not something every customer can sign up for today. Pricing has not been disclosed either, so the real test will be whether mid-sized companies can afford it or whether it stays a large-enterprise offering.
ElevenLabs already applies the industry-specific approach through Scribe v3 Medical, a healthcare transcription model built to recognize specialized terminology, and it revealed plans to develop a financial services model next.
The Interaction Engine: Picking the Right Model for Each Moment
One of the key announcements was the preview of the Interaction Engine, a system that orchestrates conversations by managing turn-taking, interruptions and the selection of the right language model for each moment. It sits alongside upgrades to ElevenAgents, the company’s platform for deploying voice and chat agents, which will add Memory and Routines so agents can remember past conversations and follow repeatable workflows.
Partners, Marketplace and the NVIDIA Deal
ElevenLabs reports more than 550 partners across 44 countries, including Google Cloud, IBM, Deloitte, DXC and Genesys. A new Partner Program lets consultancies, systems integrators, software vendors and agencies integrate ElevenAgents into enterprise technology stacks, and an alliance with McKinsey and QuantumBlack pairs the platform with McKinsey’s enterprise-transformation work. The accompanying Marketplace offers a curated catalog of partner-built applications for healthcare, financial services, insurance, education and retail.
The infrastructure news may prove the most durable part of the day. ElevenLabs and NVIDIA expanded their partnership, making NVIDIA’s Nemotron 3.5 Super VL available in ElevenAgents. The open model family is built for reasoning in agentic workloads, and ElevenLabs reports it achieved leading end-to-end task-completion accuracy at 70 percent lower costs compared to other leading open models. ElevenLabs also plans to add 15 MW of NVIDIA Vera Rubin compute capacity on top of its existing Blackwell Ultra systems.
The flagship deployment is in Poland. ElevenLabs is using its voice AI models and NVIDIA infrastructure to power a sovereign deployment of the voice agent for the country’s national e-Health platform, Centralna e-Rejestracja, to help patients schedule medical appointments — with NVIDIA Confidential Computing keeping citizen data and audio within government infrastructure.
What to Watch Next
ElevenLabs was founded in 2022 and is now valued at approximately 22 billion dollars following a strategic investment from NVIDIA in 2025. The New York Summit was a coming-out party for an enterprise AI company, not just a voice company. The open questions now are practical ones: when custom models open beyond selected enterprises, what they will cost, and whether ElevenAI’s meeting notes can win over users who already have a note-taker in their stack. Free early access to ElevenAI is the fastest way to find out.
