Eleven Multilingual v2 Description
Eleven Multilingual v2 is a powerful AI model designed to excel in multilingual understanding, generation, and translation tasks, supporting a wide range of languages with high fidelity and context awareness.
Technical Specification
Performance Benchmarks
- Naturalness (MOS): 4.7/5.0 Mean Opinion Score across languages
- Intelligibility: >98% word accuracy in supported languages
- Voice Similarity (Embedding Distance): 0.22 average cosine distance (lower = more human-like)
- Language Accuracy: 95–98% native-level pronunciation across key languages
Key Capabilities
- Natural Multilingual Speech: Generates fluent, culturally appropriate speech with native-like rhythm and accent.
- Expressive Voice Control: Adjust tone, emotion (e.g., happy, sad, excited), and emphasis via text prompts or API parameters.
- Real-Time Streaming: Supports low-latency streaming for interactive applications like voice assistants and gaming.
- Custom Voice Creation: Enables creation of unique, branded, or cloned voices with minimal training data.
API Prising
- 0.231 USD / 1000 characters
Optimal Use Cases
- Global Content Localization: Translate and voice-over videos, e-learning, and apps in multiple languages with natural voices.
- Interactive AI Agents: Power multilingual chatbots, virtual assistants, and customer service avatars.
- Audiobooks & Podcasts: Generate expressive, long-form narration in multiple languages.Gaming & Animation: Provide dynamic, real-time voice lines for characters across regions.
- Accessibility Tools: Deliver high-quality screen readers and voice-based interfaces for visually impaired users.
Code Sample
Comparison with Other Models
- Vs. Google WaveNet (Multilingual): Superior expressiveness (4.7 vs. 4.3 MOS), broader language support (29+ vs. 15), and better voice cloning capabilities.
- Vs. Amazon Polly (Neural): Higher naturalness and emotional range; supports more languages and real-time streaming with lower latency.
- Vs. Microsoft Azure Neural TTS: More consistent prosody in low-resource languages; faster inference and simpler API integration.
- Vs. Meta’s MMS-TTS: Better audio fidelity and voice customization; commercially licensed for broad deployment.
Limitations
Eleven Multilingual v2 has some limitations including issues with language switching during long content, where the model may bleed accents between different languages, leading to inconsistent pronunciation. Processing time can also vary depending on the language used, and the overall audio quality may be uneven across languages. Additionally, the model supports up to 10,000 characters per request, which can limit very long speech synthesis tasks.
