ElevenLabs just introduced Studio 4.0, an all-in-one AI audio editor designed for podcasters and video creators.

It also adds Studio Agent, a co-editor that drafts scripts and arranges sound effects from a single prompt.
ElevenLabs just rolled out Music v2.5, making it the new default engine inside ElevenMusic. The updated model produces noticeably richer arrangements and more authentic instrumentation, coming out on top across 47,885 blind prompt pairs. Even better: every plan now includes lossless downloads and full commercial rights, though tracks referencing existing artists remain blocked from export.
Universal Music Group and ElevenLabs just announced a multi-year deal to build a licensed AI music platform for fans.

It marks ElevenLabs' first deal with a major label.
ElevenLabs just rolled out References, a new control layer for Music v2 that lets users upload 10-second to 5-minute audio tracks to steer the style, instrumentation, and vibe of generated songs. You can pair audio with text prompts or let it direct generation alone, with automated copyright checks blocking third-party recordings. It is live now on ElevenMusic, ElevenCreative, and via API.
