AI BriefingEleven v3's Situational Awareness Feature
Key point
ElevenLabs' **Eleven v3** supports situational awareness that adjusts emotion and tone in real time through audio tags.
Details
The Eleven v3 (alpha) model provides a feature that allows control over the tone, emotion, and speed of text through Audio Tags. When specific words are entered inside brackets [], the model interprets them as performance instructions and delivers a context-appropriate performance.
This 'Situational Awareness' feature helps the AI go beyond simply reading text, allowing its voice to change according to the situation. For example, the [SHOUTING] tag adds urgency, while [WHISPER] creates a whispering effect, turning simple narration into an actual 'performance'.
The main audio tag categories are as follows:
- Emotional tone:
[EXCITED],[NERVOUS],[FRUSTRATED],[TIRED] - Reactions:
[GASP],[SIGH],[LAUGHS],[GULPS] - Volume and energy:
[WHISPERING],[SHOUTING],[QUIETLY],[LOUDLY] - Speed and rhythm:
[PAUSES],[STAMMERS],[RUSHED]
Eleven v3 naturally maintains tone changes and flow mid-sentence through its deep context model. However, since Professional Voice Clones (PVC) are not currently fully optimized for v3, it is recommended to use Instant Voice Clone (IVC) or a designed voice to use this feature smoothly.
