I'm also curious about this for longform content. Will this be competitive for something like creating an audiobook?

For $0.015 a minute it has to be.

The books I am listening to now wouldn't even be $10. Any future price drops then will really make this a no-brainer.

The Elevenlabs pricing to me makes it completely useless for audiobooks that I just want to listen to for my personal enjoyment.

Do you have any affiliation with Elevenlabs?

I do not have any affiliation with Elevenlabs or OpenAI except as a user of their APIs. I'd actually prefer it if OpenAI had a better realtime product than Elevenlabs because it'd be more convenient.

FWIW I have no affiliation with any of these companies but I have a book coming out soon and have been researching AI audiobook tools and Elevenlabs seems to be far and away the consensus for that at least
