ElevenLabs valuation doubles to $22B in tender offer
ElevenLabs, a voice AI startup based in New York and London, completed a $300 million employee tender offer at a $22 billion valuation, doubling its valuation from February. Co-led by Wellington and T. Rowe Price, the tender included new investors EQT, Goldman Sachs, GIC, OTPP, Sapphire Ventures, and BDT & MSD, alongside existing backers. This is the company's second secondary transaction, following a $100 million tender at $6.6 billion in September 2025. The valuation surge is driven by the rapid growth of its conversational agents platform (ElevenAgents), which has more than tripled ARR since the Series D and now handles over 15 million conversations weekly. Enterprises account for 55% of revenue, with clients like Stripe, Deutsche Telekom, and SevenRooms. ElevenLabs also released new text-to-speech models (Eleven v4 and v4 Turbo) and plans an IPO in 2-3 years. The company faces a class-action lawsuit in Illinois over alleged biometric voiceprint extraction without consent.
ElevenLabs CEO discusses margins, IPO timing, AI disclosure
ElevenLabs CEO Mati Staniszewski discusses the company's $600 million ARR, enterprise growth, and reported $22 billion valuation. He addresses AI commoditization, competition with customers like Decagon, and the need for AI disclosure in customer service. The company focuses on voice AI for enterprise and creators, with clients including Klarna, Deutsche Telekom, Cisco, and Adobe. Staniszewski remains non-committal on IPO timing, citing 2028 as a possible target.
