ElevenLabs announced that it has completed a $300 million employee tender offer. The deal values the company at $22 billion, roughly twice the $11 billion valuation it reported after its Series D round in February 2026. The tender was led by Wellington and T. Rowe Price, with new investors such as EQT, Goldman Sachs and GIC joining existing backers like Andreessen Horowitz and Lightspeed.

## Why the valuation jump matters

The higher valuation reflects strong demand for ElevenLabs’ conversational‑agent platform, which it calls ElevenAgents. Enterprise users now account for 55 % of the company’s revenue, and the firm says its voice agents handle more than 15 million conversations each week – three times the volume it logged in February.

## What the company is delivering

ElevenLabs has released two new text‑to‑speech models, v4 and v4 Turbo, which it describes as its fastest and most emotive. It also offers a medical transcription model called Scribe v2. The platform lets businesses connect the agents to internal knowledge bases, so the AI can answer questions, process refunds, schedule appointments and more. Customers include five of the world’s ten largest tech firms, five of the top ten insurers and four of the top ten telecoms.

## The facts

## Why it matters
