Voice AI startup ElevenLabs<\/a> on Wednesday introduced a feature that lets you upload different types of content to create a multispeaker podcast for you, similar to Google\u2019s NotebookLM<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The feature, called GenFM, can be found on the company\u2019s ElevenLabs Reader iOS app. Currently, GenFM supports 32 languages, including English, Hindi, Portuguese, Chinese, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, and others. <\/p>\n

To use GenFM, you first upload a YouTube video, text, or document. The app then picks out two voices automatically to create a podcast. There are over a dozen voices available, the company notes. <\/p>\n

One of the interesting screens you might see when the app prepares an AI-generated podcast is \u201cSprinkling some umms\u201d and \u201cadding some thoughtful pauses.\u201d At a time when tools are helping humans remove \u201cUms\u201d and \u201cAhs,\u201d<\/a> ElevenLabs is adding human elements to its AI-generated podcast.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe debated about how much to introduce \u2018ums,\u2019 \u2018ahs,\u2019 \u2018mhmms\u2019\/ laughter\/breathing similar human dialogue fillers or overlays \u2014 we\u2019re aiming to strike the right balance of natural, human conversation and providing\u00a0utility\u00a0from the content,\u201d Jack McDermott, who looks after mobile growth at ElevenLabs, told TechCrunch over email.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we look at exceptional long-form podcasts out there, we find [fewer] interruptions and more natural, insightful conversation flow,\u201d he said. \u201cThat type of experience is ultimately what we\u2019re aiming for while making audio narratives more accessible across voices and languages.\u201d<\/p>\n

Going forward, ElevenLabs plans to support more customization and the ability to add multiple sources to create a generative AI podcast.<\/p>\n

In September, Google launched the ability to create AI-generated conversations<\/a> with NotebookLM from the sources you provided. A month later, the company added the ability for users to customize these AI-generated podcast outputs<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, ElevenLabs announced it\u2019s investing $11 million into the Polish startup ecosystem<\/a> and opening an office in Warsaw, which will be the company\u2019s R&D center to attract local AI talent. The startup also said that it is expanding into India<\/a>, where it has hired a business head and is now building a team. The company also launched conversation AI agents for its customers<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
