ElevenLabs is an AI audio platform that lets your Lovable app generate spoken audio and voice-driven experiences. It’s designed for apps that need realistic text-to-speech, character voices, or audio output as a core part of the product experience. With ElevenLabs, your app can:
  • Convert text into high-quality synthesized speech
  • Use character voices or branded narrators
  • Generate podcasts, audio summaries, or spoken content
  • Power real-time conversational or voice-based interactions
  • Support accessibility through screen-free or hands-free experiences
ElevenLabs is a good fit when your app depends on spoken output or audio-first interaction rather than text-only interfaces.

How to connect ElevenLabs

Workspace admins and owners can connect ElevenLabs.
ElevenLabs promotion: Get your first month for free (new ElevenLabs customers only). Redeem by December 22, 2025. To redeem the offer, see ElevenLabs video instructions.
You can create multiple ElevenLabs connections using different API keys, and with different access levels, which is useful for separating environments (for example, development and production) or managing rate limits. When the connection is created, ElevenLabs becomes available across all projects in the workspace.

​
Prerequisites

Before connecting ElevenLabs, make sure you have:
  • An ElevenLabs account and API key
    All audio generation or processing performed through this connector consumes ElevenLabs credits (based on the selected model and input length), and billing is handled directly by ElevenLabs, not Lovable.
  • Lovable workspace owner or admin role

​
Step 1: Create an ElevenLabs account and API key

An API key lets you connect to ElevenLabs API and use its features. You can create multiple keys with different access levels. To create an ElevenLabs API key:
  1. Go to ElevenLabs and set up your account.
  2. In Developers → API keys, click Create Key.
  3. Give the key a descriptive name, for example, Lovable integration.
  4. Turn on Restrict Key.
  5. Set a monthly Credit Limit.
  6. Choose which feature endpoints this key can use, depending on what your app needs.
  7. Copy the generated API key and store it securely.
    Your API key functions like a password. Keep it secure and never share it publicly. You’ll need it in the next step.

​
Step 2: Connect ElevenLabs to Lovable

You can create multiple connections using different API keys. To connect ElevenLabs:
  1. Go to Settings → Connectors → Shared connectors and select ElevenLabs.
  2. Click Add connection.
  3. Display name: name the connection, for example ElevenLabs Prod.
  4. Under Authentication, enter your ElevenLabs API key (sk_xxxxxxxx…).
  5. Click Create.
When connected, your Lovable apps can start generating speech and audio using ElevenLabs.

How to delete a connection

Workspace admins and owners can delete connections. Deleting a connection is permanent and cannot be undone. It will remove the credentials from all linked projects, and any apps depending on will stop working until a new connection is added. If the connection is used by multiple projects, consider creating a replacement connection first. To delete a connection:
  1. Go to Settings → Connectors → Shared connectors and select .
  2. Open the connection you want to remove.
  3. Under Delete this connection, review the list of projects currently using it.
  4. Click Delete and confirm.
