Spotify has expanded its AI audiobook capabilities through a new partnership with ElevenLabs, a leading AI voice technology provider. As reported by Jess Weatherbed for The Verge, the streaming platform will now accept audiobooks created using ElevenLabs’ voice synthesis software. The service supports narration in 29 languages and requires a Pro subscription of $99 monthly to produce average-length audiobooks. Spotify aims to make audiobook production more accessible for independent authors and help revive older titles that lack audio versions. While maintaining its commitment to human narration, Spotify will clearly mark AI-narrated titles in their metadata and descriptions. The company already allows AI-narrated audiobooks through its Findaway Voices platform but previously limited this to specific partners.
