How do I share a voice?

Learn how to share Professional Voice Clones with the Voice Library, or share voices privately within your workspace.

You can share Professional Voice Clones with the Voice Library, or privately with other users.

Instant Voice Clones and voices created with Voice Design can only be shared with members of your workspace. They cannot be shared outside your workspace or published to the Voice Library.

When you share a Professional Voice Clone with the Voice Library, other users can discover and use it. You also earn money via our Voice Actor Payouts!

Only Professional Voice Clones can be published to the Voice Library.

In My Voices, find your voice and click More actions (three dots), then select Publish to Library. You’ll also see this option highlighted for your Professional Voice Clones at the top of My Voices.

Enter a name and description for your voice. Make sure the name follows our naming guidelines:

Naming guidelines

  • The naming pattern should be a name followed by key voice traits or a voice persona, separated by a hyphen (-).

  • The name must be 40 characters or fewer.

  • Your name should NOT include the following:

    • Names of public individuals or entities (company names, band names, influencers or famous people, etc).
    • Social handles (Twitter, Instagram, you name it, etc).
    • ALL CAPS WORDS.
    • Emojis and any other non-letter characters.
    • Explicit or harmful words.
    • The word “voice”.

  • Some examples of names following our guidelines:

    • Serena - Calm, Friendly, Warm
    • Olivia - Upbeat podcast host
    • Jasper - Deep, Encouraging, Serious
    • Maya - Terror narrator
    • Nelson - Scary villain
    • Harmony - High-energy, High-pitch

Description guidelines

  • The description helps users decide if your voice is right for their project. Be specific about the use cases your voice is best suited for.

  • Include as much detail as possible about your voice’s key attributes — tone, style, emotion, pacing, and any unique qualities that set it apart.

  • Do not list unrelated use cases to increase visibility. Voices with misleading or spammy descriptions will not be approved.

  • Example of a good description:

    Serena offers a warm, meditative tone with a naturally slow and steady pace. Her voice carries a “smile” that feels both friendly and reassuring, making her perfect for content where the listener needs to feel safe or relaxed.

    Best use cases: Meditation apps, sleep stories, wellness tutorials, and empathetic customer service IVR systems.

    Key qualities: Soft-spoken, breathy, and consistently calm.

Set labels (language, accent, gender, age, use case, tone, and style) to help others find your voice.

6

Review and accept the Voice Library Addendum to our Terms of Service and provide the required consents and confirmations. Do this carefully and make sure you understand the service before sharing. If you have questions, contact legal@elevenlabs.io.

7

After submission, your voice will be reviewed by our team. If minor adjustments are needed, we may make these for you. Your request may be declined if it doesn’t meet our guidelines, and repeated uploads that consistently violate our guidelines may lead to restrictions on uploading and sharing voices.

We currently do not have an estimate for the review time, as it depends on the queue.

Adding a custom voice preview

You can add a custom voice preview during the sharing process, or afterwards.

In My Voices, find your voice, click More actions (three dots), then select Edit in Library. Click Manage your voice. In the Custom voice preview section, select an eligible generation from the drop-down selector. Any generations you’ve made of 70–150 characters will be available. For more details, see How do I add a custom preview for my shared voice?.

Sharing your voice privately

You can share a voice with members of your workspace. Professional Voice Clones can also be shared externally with anyone who has the link. Instant Voice Clones and voices created with Voice Design can only be shared within your workspace.

1

In My Voices, find your voice and click More actions (three dots), then select Share Voice.

2

To share your voice with other members of your workspace, add them in the Add users or groups field.

3

To share externally, use the toggle to enable access for Anyone with the link. A sharing link will be generated, which you can give to other ElevenLabs users to add your voice to their account.

Anyone with the link will be able to add your voice to their account. If you would like to restrict usage to named users, you can add them to your workspace and share with them there.
