Google Cloud and ElevenLabs, a Polish artificial intelligence startup, are deepening their collaboration to produce advanced AI voice tools more accessible to businesses worldwide. The expanded partnership, announced Friday, builds on existing function and leverages Google Cloud’s infrastructure and NVIDIA’s AI technology to power ElevenLabs’ rapidly growing platform. This collaboration aims to streamline the creation of realistic and versatile AI voices for a wide range of applications, from customer service to content creation.
The core of the agreement centers on ElevenLabs’ access to Google Cloud’s G4 virtual machines (VMs), equipped with NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell GPUs. This increased computing power will allow ElevenLabs to train and deploy more sophisticated voice models, supporting larger-scale enterprise deployments and accelerating research and development. The partnership likewise extends to integrating Google’s Gemini and Veo models directly into ElevenLabs’ platform, enhancing its capabilities in reasoning, planning, and multimedia content generation.
Expanding AI Voice Capabilities with Google Cloud
Founded in 2022 by Polish programmers Mati Staniszewski and Piotr Dąbkowski, ElevenLabs initially gained recognition for its highly realistic text-to-speech technology. Staniszewski and Dąbkowski have since broadened the company’s focus to encompass speech-to-text, sound effects, dubbing, music, and conversational AI. The company’s technology is now used by businesses across various sectors, including financial services, retail, and telecommunications, to create AI agents that can respond naturally in multiple languages.
“Google Cloud has been an excellent partner from day one,” said Staniszewski in a statement. “Now, with the G4 VMs based on NVIDIA Blackwell, we are further developing our multimodal models, with faster inference, better reliability, and instant responses in multiple languages. Our goal remains the same: creating voice agents that work at scale, without compromise. We are excited to continue building together and see what our customers implement with it.”
A Platform for Enterprise AI Voice Solutions
ElevenLabs offers a suite of products designed for different use cases. ElevenAgents provides a platform for companies to deploy reliable and scalable AI-powered voice and chat agents for customer support, sales, and internal training. Organizations like Deutsche Telekom, Square, the Ukrainian government, and Revolut are already utilizing ElevenAgents for these purposes. ElevenCreative caters to creators and brands, enabling the generation, editing, and localization of high-fidelity audio content in over 70 languages, with clients including Duolingo, NVIDIA, and TIME. Finally, ElevenAPI provides developers with low-latency voice infrastructure for building interactive products and experiences, powering platforms used by companies like Meta, Epic Games, and Salesforce.
The partnership also includes the launch of ElevenLabs’ solutions on the Google Cloud Marketplace, simplifying the process for customers to scale conversational agents and benefit from streamlined billing and compliance frameworks. This integration allows businesses to more easily access and deploy ElevenLabs’ technology within their existing Google Cloud environments.
NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs Power the Next Generation of AI Voice
The availability of NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs is a key component of this expanded collaboration. According to NVIDIA, combining the power of Google Cloud’s AI platform with NVIDIA’s infrastructure allows ElevenLabs to train larger models faster and run advanced AI services more efficiently. “Here’s exactly the type of ecosystem innovation we envisioned with Blackwell, helping pioneers like ElevenLabs deliver smarter and more responsive AI agents and media tools across every domain,” said Ian Buck, NVIDIA’s vice president and general manager of Hyperscale and HPC, in a press release.
Matt Renner, President and Chief Revenue Officer at Google Cloud, emphasized the partnership’s potential to transform customer experiences. “This partnership helps companies create more natural and engaging experiences for their customers at a global scale. By leveraging the full package of Google Cloud technologies, including our top AI models and advanced computing platforms from NVIDIA, ElevenLabs is helping companies transform how they interact with users, delivering a more personalized and advanced experience for their customers.”
The collaboration between Google Cloud and ElevenLabs represents a significant step forward in the development and accessibility of AI voice technology. By combining Google Cloud’s robust infrastructure, NVIDIA’s cutting-edge GPUs, and ElevenLabs’ innovative AI models, the partnership is poised to empower businesses to create more engaging and personalized experiences for their customers worldwide. The next step in this collaboration will be the continued integration of Google’s AI models and the expansion of ElevenLabs’ platform to serve a broader range of enterprise clients.
