Workflows
Overview
Workflows provides pre-configured templates that combine multiple AI tools into guided step-by-step processes. Each workflow is designed by our team of experts to help you achieve specific creative outcomes without needing to understand the technical details of model selection, parameter tuning, or file management.
With Workflows, you can browse pre-made templates, customize them with your own inputs and settings, and generate high-quality outputs. The system automatically handles model selection, prompting, and file organization, allowing you to focus on your creative vision.
Guide
Browse the gallery
Navigate to the Explore tab to view available workflows. Each workflow shows a preview of the expected output and the steps involved.
Select a workflow
Choose a workflow that matches your desired outcome. Click on it to view the full details and requirements.
Follow the steps
Complete each step in sequence, providing your custom inputs such as images, prompts, or settings. You can pause at any time and resume later from the History tab.
Completed workflows automatically appear in the history of related products (e.g., Image & Video, Music) so you can continue iterating outside of Workflows.
How it works
With Workflows, we’ve created automated sequences that handle model and prompt selection for you, ensuring consistent, high-quality results. Each workflow specifies:
- Model selection for each generation step
- Pre-engineered prompts optimized for specific outcomes
- Parameter configurations tested for quality results
- File management and organization between steps
When you complete a workflow, the generated content appears in your history for the corresponding product. You can inspect the settings, models, and prompts used to understand how the output was created and replicate the process manually if desired.
Featured workflows
Select a pre-made avatar, upload an image of a prop, and generate a personalized video message.
Upload photos and animate them with realistic motion and expressions.
Generate personalized holiday messages from Santa addressed to specific recipients.
Upload a video and generate a custom soundtrack that matches the mood and pacing.
Key features
Pre-configured model chains
Pre-configured model chains
Each workflow selects the optimal model for each step based on extensive testing. You don’t need to understand which models work best together or how to configure them for specific use cases.
Optimized prompts
Optimized prompts
Workflows include prompt engineering developed by our team. This reduces the number of iterations needed to achieve high-quality results compared to manual prompting.
Guided process
Guided process
Step-by-step instructions make it clear what inputs are required and what to expect at each stage. You don’t need to memorize complex procedures or refer to documentation.
Automated file transfers
Automated file transfers
Workflows handle intermediate files and outputs automatically. You don’t need to manage file transfers between different tools or keep track of which files to use for each step.
Resumable execution
Resumable execution
For multi-step workflows, you can stop at any point and resume later. Your progress is saved automatically in the History tab.
Billing and pricing
Workflows use the same pricing as running the individual models manually. There is no additional markup for using Workflows.
Price estimates are shown before each step when possible. Some workflows (e.g., LipSync) cannot provide exact prices upfront due to variable processing requirements.
Credit usage is calculated based on:
- Model type used for each generation step
- Duration or size of the output
- Number of variants or iterations
All credit costs are transparently displayed before you confirm each generation step.
FAQ
Can I modify workflows or create my own?
Workflows are currently curated by the ElevenLabs team. You cannot modify existing workflows or create custom ones. If you need more control, you can replicate the process manually using the individual tools after inspecting the workflow’s settings in your history.
Where do my workflow outputs go?
Completed workflow outputs appear in the History tab within Workflows. They also appear in the history of the corresponding product (e.g., Image & Video, Music) so you can continue editing using those tools.
Can I resume a workflow I started earlier?
Yes. Navigate to the History tab to see all workflows in progress. Click on a partial workflow to resume from where you left off.
Are workflows more expensive than manual processes?
No. Workflows use the same per-model pricing as manual execution. You pay only for the models and generations used, with no additional fees.
Can I see what settings were used in a workflow?
Yes. After completing a workflow, you can view the models, prompts, and settings used by checking your history in the corresponding product. This transparency allows you to learn from workflows and replicate them manually if desired.
What if I'm not happy with the output?
Depending on where the workflow outputs to (e.g., Image & Video, Music), you can continue iterating using that product’s editing tools. You can also restart the workflow with different inputs or settings.
