ElevenLabs

AI voice technology company offering text-to-speech, voice cloning, and dubbing tools; founded by two Polish entrepreneurs, headquartered in New York and London.

ElevenLabs was founded in 2022 by Polish entrepreneurs Mati Staniszewski and Piotr Dabkowski, who set out to build more natural, expressive AI-generated speech after being frustrated by poorly dubbed foreign films. The company's core products include text-to-speech and voice cloning tools, an AI dubbing studio, conversational voice agents, and developer APIs, used by media companies, publishers, and app developers for narration, localization, and voice assistants. ElevenLabs raised a $180 million Series C round in January 2025 at a $3.3 billion valuation, followed by a $500 million round in February 2026 that valued the company at $11 billion as it explored a potential IPO; total funding raised exceeds $800 million. Mati Staniszewski serves as CEO and Piotr Dabkowski as CTO. The company operates from offices in New York, London, and Warsaw, and had grown to several hundred employees by 2026.
