ElevenLabs is moving into meeting notes and dictation. The voice AI company, now valued at $22 billion, has released an experimental app called ElevenAI. It combines meeting note-taking, dictation, and agent integration in one product. According to TechCrunch AI, the company unveiled the app at its 11/11 Summit in New York. It’s still in preview, so you’ll need to sign up for early access instead of downloading it.
The category is already crowded. TechCrunch AI notes that Fireflies, Wispr Flow, and Granola have all shipped competing features in the last few months. ElevenLabs is taking a different angle, though. It’s pitching ElevenAI as a tool for whole teams, not as a personal productivity app.
What ElevenAI Actually Does
The app covers what you’d expect from tools in this category and adds a few things that come from ElevenLabs’ own platform. Here are the main features:
- Meeting notes across all your calls. ElevenAI records and summarizes your meetings. It also tells other participants that the conversation is being recorded, which matters a lot for consent and compliance in enterprise settings.
- Search across past meetings. You can query data from all your meetings instead of digging through transcripts one at a time. If you need to know what a client said about pricing three weeks ago, you just ask.
- Live help during a call. ElevenAI can help you while a conversation is still going, for example by pulling up a key detail from an older meeting. That changes the notetaker from something you check afterward into something that helps you in the moment.
- Follow-up actions through ElevenAgent. Companies can connect ElevenAgent, the company’s agent platform, to act on meeting notes. One example is drafting a follow-up email from what was discussed.
- Dictation in any app. The dictation feature turns speech into cleaned-up text in any app and supports more than 90 languages. That puts it in direct competition with Wispr Flow.
- Industry-specific vocabulary. ElevenLabs says the app understands industry terms in both dictation and meeting transcription. For legal, medical, or technical teams, this is often what decides whether a transcription tool is usable.
Why ElevenLabs Is Doing This
The interesting part here is the strategy more than the feature list. As TechCrunch AI explains, ElevenAI works as a showcase for ElevenLabs’ own speech models. It also uses the company’s agent platform to give those agents better context.
The company may not be trying to beat Granola or Fireflies head-on in the consumer productivity market. The more likely play is enterprise. Teams that already pay ElevenLabs for voice infrastructure could drop their separate notetaker licenses and use ElevenAI instead. Bundling like this is how platform companies grow inside a customer, and ElevenLabs clearly wants to be more than a text-to-speech vendor.
A Busy Week of Launches
ElevenAI wasn’t the only release. In the past week, ElevenLabs also launched:
- Scribe v3, a new series of speech-to-text models with live transcription. Companies can fine-tune the models on their own data.
- A model selection tool that helps teams pick the right language model for a given use case.
- A routine creator that automates tasks based on transcripts.
Taken together, these releases suggest ElevenAI sits on top of a much larger stack. The app is the visible part, and the models and agent tooling underneath it are what ElevenLabs actually sells.
The Caveats
This is a preview product, and ElevenLabs calls it experimental. There’s no public download, and the article doesn’t mention pricing or a general availability date. Teams that are interested should expect a waitlist and probably some rough edges.
Competition is also intense. Every meeting tool is racing to become its company’s central knowledge hub, where it automatically pulls out insights and handles follow-up work. TechCrunch AI points out that this is now the goal across the whole category. ElevenLabs has strong voice models, but Granola and Fireflies already have users, habits, and integrations built in.
What Comes Next
I’ll be watching how ElevenLabs prices ElevenAI for enterprise accounts. If it ends up close to free for existing customers, it could put real pressure on standalone notetakers. The broader trend is easy to see: meeting transcripts are becoming the raw material for AI agents, and whoever owns that data owns the follow-up work.
