# ElevenLabs
ElevenLabs is an AI research and product company transforming how we interact with technology. We launched in January 2023 with the first human-like AI voice model. Today, we serve millions of users and thousands of businesses across three main platforms. ElevenAgents enables businesses to deliver seamless and intelligent customer experiences, with the integrations, testing, monitoring, and reliability necessary to deploy voice and chat agents at scale. ElevenCreative empowers creators and marketers to generate and edit speech, music, image, and video across 70+ languages. ElevenAPI gives developers access to our leading AI audio foundational models.
> [!NOTE]
> ## ElevenLabs MCP server — [elevenlabs.io/mcp](https://elevenlabs.io/mcp)
>
> Hosted, remote MCP server over HTTP. Exposes ElevenAgents management and ElevenCreative generation (50+ models) as tools to any MCP client, scoped to the authenticated workspace.
>
> **Endpoints**
> - `https://api.elevenlabs.io/v1/mcp` — global
> - `https://api.us.elevenlabs.io/v1/mcp` — US residency
>
> **Auth:** OAuth, one time per client. No API keys to store or rotate; access is revocable from the workspace.
>
> **Capabilities**
> - *Agents:* list and query agents, read conversation transcripts and call metrics (latency, outcomes, failures), create agents, update prompts, voices, and tool configuration. Changes take effect without a redeploy.
> - *Creative:* generate speech, music, images, and video. Regenerate an individual layer (voiceover, music, single shot) without re-running the rest.
>
> **Setup:** per-client install steps (ChatGPT, Claude, Claude Code, Cursor, GrokBot, Hermes) and the ElevenLabs CLI are documented at [elevenlabs.io/mcp](https://elevenlabs.io/mcp). Fetch it with `Accept: text/markdown` for the current commands and config.
## Fetching Markdown Content
Most ElevenLabs pages support a Markdown-optimized response format. When you request a page with the header `Accept: text/markdown`, the server returns a stripped-down Markdown version of the page — no navigation or boilerplate — containing only the essential content. This significantly reduces token usage and improves parsing accuracy.
**To request Markdown content, add this header to your HTTP requests:**
```
Accept: text/markdown
```
**Example (curl):**
```bash
curl -H "Accept: text/markdown" https://elevenlabs.io/text-to-speech
```
Where Markdown responses are available, the server will reply with `Content-Type: text/markdown`. If a page does not support this format, it will fall back to the standard HTML response. The [LLM-optimized full documentation](https://elevenlabs.io/docs/llms-full.txt) is always available as a single flat Markdown file without requiring any special headers.
