Best for
ElevenLabs Eleven v4 is the text-to-speech voice for scripts that need a full read, including lines you may later dub or lip-sync. It is priced per 1,000 characters, so the length of the script is the cost. Use it for narration, ads, explainers, and dialogue you want to hear before you animate a face.
Prompting tips
Write the line the way it should be spoken. Short sentences and punctuation do more than adjectives about emotion. A radio line such as a weekend sale announcement is a good test of pace. If you need the same read at a lower character price, compare Turbo v2.5.
How to use it
Open Audio, choose text to speech, and select Eleven v4. Paste the script, pick the voice, and generate. The table shows the Free plan price at 1,000 and 2,000 characters. A script under 1,000 characters is still billed as one block of 1,000.
Where it fits
Voice cloning is separate from this character price. The text-to-speech page lists the clone cost and how many voices each plan can save. After the clip exists, lip-sync can drive a portrait with it, and that animation has its own per-second price.
Controls and pricing
Read the line aloud before you generate it. If you stumble, the voice will too. Break long copy into beats you can check, because every new thousand characters is another block of credits. Eleven v4 is the voice to keep when the read is the final one. Turbo v2.5 is the lower character price while you are still editing.
