ElevenLabs cuts API, Agents pricing

This is mostly a pricing move, but it matters because ElevenLabs is making its voice stack easier to adopt for smaller teams and usage-spiky products.

• –Text to Speech is up to 55% cheaper, Speech to Text up to 45% cheaper, and ElevenAgents up to 20% cheaper
• –Pay-as-you-go removes the friction of upfront plan commitments, which is better for prototypes and variable workloads
• –Existing customers can switch to the new pricing from their subscription page, so this is not just a new-customer offer
• –Cheaper voice infrastructure raises pressure on competing APIs and hosted voice-agent platforms to match pricing
• –The change reinforces ElevenLabs as a developer platform, not just a consumer-facing voice brand
