ElevenLabs introduced multi-region serving, cutting global TTS API latency by up to 40%.

Details

ElevenLabs has introduced multi-region serving for its Text to Speech API. Now, depending on the user's location, requests are automatically routed to the nearest backend among US-Central (Americas), Netherlands (Europe/Middle East/Africa), and Singapore (Asia Pacific).

Flash v2.5, running on upgraded GPUs and an optimized inference stack, achieved a model TTFB of 50ms. Combined with improved network routing, this has reduced perceived latency by 20-40% across 11 major regions worldwide.

This update delivers more natural conversations and faster responsiveness for applications such as real-time voice agents. No code changes or migration are required—simply continue using the existing api.elevenlabs.io endpoint to benefit immediately.
