CapCut makes video creation simple — but creators still face one limitation: audio. While the app includes free editing tools and premium effects, it doesn’t offer built-in text to speech. With the rise of the Narrator Voice trend, getting this right is more important than ever.
That’s where ElevenLabs comes in. Our AI voice technology helps creators generate realistic, natural-sounding voiceovers to match the visual quality of their CapCut projects. From social posts to tutorials, you can now elevate both how your content looks and sounds.
CapCut is popular for a reason — it helps creators of all levels produce high-quality videos without needing expensive software or steep learning curves.
But visuals aren’t enough. If your audio doesn’t match the quality of your edit, your content risks being overlooked. With ElevenLabs, you can turn any script into a compelling voiceover in seconds. Our voices are built to sound human — not robotic — so your audience stays engaged from start to finish.
Create human-like voices with our Text to Speech (TTS) system, built for high-quality narration, gaming, video, and accessibility. Expressive voices, multilingual support, and API integration make it easy to scale from personal projects to enterprise workflows.
Text to speech (TTS) converts written text into spoken audio. Originally developed to improve accessibility — especially for people with visual impairments — TTS now plays a broader role across everyday use cases. It is also still having an impact on the lives of people without a voice.
Whether you're listening to a long article, generating voiceovers, or simply giving your eyes a break, modern TTS tools make it easy to turn written content into natural-sounding speech.
Today’s AI-powered systems go far beyond earlier robotic outputs. With models like ElevenLabs, the voices sound human — shaped for realism, emotion, and context. That realism is key to why narrator voice, text-to-speech or simply TTS is now used across education, content creation, productivity tools, and more.

Developed using advanced AI algorithms, the ElevenLabs TTS tool is making waves across the internet. Video creators are becoming increasingly tired of the robot voiceover that screams “AI-generated content,” so they are looking for ways to make their video narrations sound as realistic and engaging as possible.
Enter ElevenLabs. This versatile TTS tool offers various features and pricing tiers, including a free plan. It allows users to experiment with hundreds of narrators and customizable parameters.
In addition to regular speech synthesis, ElevenLabs offers advanced customization features like Voice Cloning and Isolation, making it ideal for individuals looking to generate high-quality audio for their videos and projects.
CapCut is a free and intuitive video editing app that allows users to create and edit videos for various platforms and goals. In addition to being an excellent tool for beginners, CapCut also offers extended features for more experienced video editors.
The user-friendly video editor includes a simple interface, a range of pre-made templates for different video styles, text, stickers, overlays, music and sound effects, filters, and direct platform integration.
Although CapCut comes with an array of helpful video editing tools and features, audio generation opportunities are limited. For one, CapCut doesn’t include a built-in TTS tool, meaning users must rely on third-party software. However, with intuitive and versatile TTS tools ElevenLabs, this is not a problem.
Combining CapCut and ElevenLabs to create engaging videos with top-tier narration is easier than you can imagine. Both tools are highly intuitive and don’t require extensive technical skills, making them popular choices for beginners and intermediate content creators.
That said, let’s get into the step-by-step process of generating audio with ElevenLabs and uploading it to CapCut.
Behind every professional video is an engaging, well-written script. Before converting your script into audio, ensure it sounds good and is free of grammatical or syntax errors.
Read your script out loud to detect any awkward-sounding phrases, and consider using a tool like Grammarly (or just a regular spellchecker) to polish up your draft.
Once your script is finalized, log in to ElevenLabs and navigate to the text to speech tool. If you don’t have an account yet, you can create one or just sign in with Google. Check the available plans and choose a tier that suits your needs and requirements as a creator.
Open the TTS tool and paste the final version of your script into the Speech Synthesis text box.
ElevenLabs allows users to choose from a wide range of voices, narration styles, and customizable features to tailor their voiceovers according to their needs.
You can choose your narrator directly from the Speech Synthesis section or the “Voices” tab on the left. This tab allows you to look into the narrator options in more detail, allowing you to choose your desired voice by clicking “Use.”
