Eleven Flash v2.5
ElevenLabs · USA / Poland · 2024
Speech in 75 milliseconds — the model that made AI voices fast enough to interrupt.
Eleven Flash v2.5 is the low-latency branch of the ElevenLabs voice line, built for conversation rather than narration. Where the company's flagship models are tuned for expressive long-form reading, Flash targets a single number: it starts producing audio roughly 75 milliseconds after receiving text, before network and application overhead. That figure is what makes real-time voice agents feel like a phone call instead of a walkie-talkie, because the caller can cut in mid-sentence and the system can respond. The trade-off is deliberate: Flash drops the inline audio tags and the fine emotional shading of the flagship in exchange for speed and a lower price, billing one credit per two characters — half the standard rate. Version 2.5 extended the original English-only Flash to 32 languages while keeping the same latency and pricing, and it accepts inputs of up to 40,000 characters. ElevenLabs positions it as the default choice for developers building voice agents, telephony and interactive applications, and recommends it over the older Turbo line at the same latency class.
