Summary

ElevenLabs has expanded its Text to Speech capabilities by introducing support for Hungarian, Vietnamese, and Norwegian, bringing the total to over 70 languages. This development is part of the new Turbo v2.5 model, which allows users to generate high-quality audio content and significantly enhance accessibility and engagement with diverse audiences. With approximately 97 million Vietnamese speakers, 13 million Hungarian speakers, and 5 million Norwegian speakers, the addition of these languages enables creators and businesses to forge stronger connections with new demographics. Users can experiment with Turbo v2.5 through Speech Synthesis, create long-form content using Studio, or integrate the service into their products via API, including the ability to clone voices across the supported languages. Although these languages are not yet available in the Dubbing or Reader app, they will be soon, alongside more voices trained specifically for these languages.
