ElevenLabs has introduced a new feature called Request Stitching to their Text-to-Speech API, designed to improve the prosody and coherence of long-form speech generation by conditioning requests on neighboring text or previous outputs, thereby enhancing the natural flow and stability of the speech. This addition aims to offer users an improved experience with minimal coding effort, allowing for the easy integration of high-quality voices into applications. The company has also made significant strides with its Impact Program, which aims to provide one million voices to individuals with permanent speech loss due to conditions such as ALS, head and neck cancer, cerebral palsy, and PSP. This initiative marks a significant step in expanding access to their technology for both patients and clinicians, reflecting ElevenLabs' commitment to leveraging AI audio to assist those in need.
