# September 28, 2026 ### Eleven v4 and Eleven v4 Turbo [Eleven v4 and Eleven v4 Turbo](/guides/overview-capabilities-text-to-speech-eleven-v4) are now available. Eleven v4 provides higher-quality, more expressive speech and improved voice cloning across more than 90 languages. Eleven v4 Turbo provides the same model family for real-time applications, with median inference latency of approximately 100 ms. Use `eleven_v4` through the Text to Dialogue API for content creation and long-form audio. Use `eleven_v4_turbo` through the Text to Dialogue WebSocket for agents and interactive applications. ::::card-grid :::card{title="Eleven v4 overview" href="/guides/overview-capabilities-text-to-speech-eleven-v4"} Compare the two model variants, voice cloning behavior, settings and supported languages. ::: :::card{title="Text to Dialogue API" href="/guides/changelog-api-reference-text-to-dialogue-convert"} Generate high-quality dialogue with Eleven v4. ::: :::card{title="Realtime streaming" href="/guides/elevenapi-guides-how-to-websockets-realtime-tdd"} Stream Eleven v4 Turbo dialogue over a WebSocket connection. ::: :::: ### Speech to Text - **Transcript editing**: Batch and realtime transcription now accept a natural-language edit instruction of up to 2,000 characters. Batch responses return the result in `edited_transcript`, while realtime sessions emit an `edited_transcript` event. See the [batch](/guides/elevenapi-guides-how-to-speech-to-text-batch-transcript-editing) and [realtime](/guides/elevenapi-guides-how-to-speech-to-text-realtime-transcript-editing) guides for incompatibilities, response handling and pricing. ### ElevenAgents - **Agent models**: Added `gpt-6-sol`, `gpt-6-luna`, `glm-52`, `deepseek-v41-flash`, `claude-opus-5` and `claude-opus-5-5` to the supported agent LLM options. - **Agent test usage**: Test invocation summaries can include total credits and USD price. Individual test runs can include credits and a charging breakdown. ### Flows - **Template API**: Added endpoints to list and retrieve published Flows templates, start template runs and retrieve run results. Runs can target a published version and send their terminal result to a configured webhook. ### Text to Dialogue - **Generation continuity**: Text to Dialogue requests can use preceding or following text and request IDs to maintain continuity across generations. - **Professional voice mode**: Text to Dialogue requests can use the Instant Voice Clone version of a Professional Voice Clone to reduce latency or improve expressiveness. ### SDK releases #### JavaScript SDK - [v2.70.0](https://github.com/elevenlabs/elevenlabs-js/releases/tag/v2.70.0) - Added batch and realtime Speech to Text transcript editing types, `branchId` filtering and cost fields for test invocation summaries, knowledge base auto-discovery, Text to Dialogue `usePvcAsIvc` and the `deepseek-v41-flash` agent model. #### Python SDK - [v2.70.0](https://github.com/elevenlabs/elevenlabs-python/releases/tag/v2.70.0) - Added batch and realtime Speech to Text transcript editing types, `branch_id` filtering and cost fields for test invocation summaries, knowledge base auto-discovery, Text to Dialogue `use_pvc_as_ivc` and the `deepseek-v41-flash` agent model. #### ElevenLabs CLI - [v1.4.0](https://github.com/elevenlabs/cli/releases/tag/v1.4.0) - Fixed requests with an explicit API key so they no longer also send stored OAuth credentials, which caused authentication failures. Added descriptions for the feedback command group and instructions for reporting missing capabilities to generated agent skills. Regenerated the API client with Flows template endpoints and current schema types. ### API :::accordion{title="View API changes"} ## New endpoints ### Flows - [List templates](/guides/changelog-api-reference-flows-templates-list) - `GET /v1/flows/templates` - List published templates and their runnable versions. - [Get template](/guides/changelog-api-reference-flows-templates-get) - `GET /v1/flows/templates/{template_id}` - Retrieve a template and its runnable versions. - [Create template run](https://elevenlabs.io/docs/api-reference/flows/templates/runs/create) - `POST /v1/flows/templates/{template_id}/runs` - Start a template run with input values, an optional version and an optional webhook. - [List template runs](/guides/changelog-api-reference-flows-templates-runs-list) - `GET /v1/flows/templates/{template_id}/runs` - List template runs with cursor pagination and optional version filtering. - [Get template run](/guides/changelog-api-reference-flows-templates-runs-get) - `GET /v1/flows/templates/{template_id}/runs/{run_id}` - Retrieve a template run and its output status. ## Updated endpoints ### Speech to Text - [Convert speech to text](https://elevenlabs.io/docs/api-reference/speech-to-text/convert) - `POST /v1/speech-to-text` - Added optional nullable `transcript_edit` (string), which accepts a natural-language edit instruction of up to 2,000 characters. - Responses add optional nullable `edited_transcript`.
