What was said

"As a company, what we now do, we created a marketplace where people can create their voice, we authenticated, you can share it, and you earn money. Today, we paid back over $22 million back to the community of talent."

11Labs has established a voice marketplace allowing voice actors to license their voices for AI generation, having paid out more than $22 million to creators. Voice actors can spend an hour recording to create an authenticated 11Labs voice profile, then license it out either at default pricing optimized by the platform or at rates they set themselves. The company has also worked with celebrities including Matthew McConaughey and the estate of James Earl Jones to license iconic voices.
