ElevenLabs launches ElevenAI, an experimental app combining meeting notes and dictation

ElevenLabs has released ElevenAI, a preview-stage app combining meeting notes, dictation and agent integration, entering a market where Fireflies, Wispr Flow and Granola already compete.

ElevenLabs launches ElevenAI, an experimental app combining meeting notes and dictation

ElevenLabs has moved into the crowded meeting-notes and dictation market with a new experimental app. According to TechCrunch, the voice AI company unveiled ElevenAI at its 11/11 Summit in New York this week. The app combines meeting transcription, dictation and agent integration, and is currently in preview — access runs through an early-access signup rather than a public download.

What ElevenAI does

TechCrunch reports that ElevenAI carries the feature set that has become standard in this category. It takes notes across a user's meetings and alerts other participants when recording is active. Users can run queries over past meetings and receive live assistance during a conversation, such as pulling up a detail from an older discussion.

The agent angle goes further: TechCrunch says companies can integrate ElevenAgent so the app performs follow-up work, for example drafting an email based on what was discussed.

A dictation mode rounds out the package. It turns spoken input into polished text inside any application, supports more than 90 languages, and, according to the company, handles industry-specific terminology in both dictation and meeting transcription.

A team product, not a personal one

The positioning is notable. TechCrunch notes that ElevenLabs — which it reports is valued at $22 billion — is framing ElevenAI as a product that lives within a team rather than an individual productivity tool. The report suggests the company may not be trying to compete head-on in the productivity market; instead, it wants to give enterprise teams an alternative to buying separate licenses for a dedicated notetaker.

ElevenAI also serves as a showcase for ElevenLabs' own models and lets the company use its agent platform to move context between features, TechCrunch observes.

Launching alongside new Scribe models

The app is not the company's only recent release in this area. According to TechCrunch, ElevenLabs has in the last week launched the v3 series of its Scribe speech-to-text models, which add live transcription and let companies fine-tune the models on their own data. The company also introduced a tool for choosing the right language model for a given use case, plus a routine creator that automates tasks from a transcript.

An increasingly crowded category

ElevenAI is entering a busy field. TechCrunch points out that Fireflies, Wispr Flow and Granola have all shipped competing dictation and meeting-notes capabilities in the past few months. The broader dynamic, the report argues, is that meeting tools are racing to become the knowledge backbone of the companies using them — automatically extracting information and triggering follow-up actions rather than simply producing transcripts.

Why it matters

ElevenLabs is best known for the models underneath other products, and ElevenAI marks its step into an end-user application category. Because it owns both the speech-to-text stack and the agent platform, it can bundle transcription, dictation and automated follow-ups without depending on third-party providers — and because customers can now fine-tune the Scribe models on their own data, that bundle can be adapted to a specific industry's vocabulary. For enterprises already paying ElevenLabs, the packaging could replace standalone notetaker licenses, which is the wedge TechCrunch says the company is aiming for. For incumbents such as Fireflies and Granola, the arrival of a heavily funded competitor underlines how quickly the category is shifting from transcription utilities toward company-wide knowledge systems with agents attached.
