AnyTopic enhances the personalized audiobook experience with ElevenLabs integration
AnyTopic, a pioneering platform in online learning, has introduced an innovative feature that allows users to create personalized mini audiobooks for free. According to the ElevenLabs blog, this new service is designed to fit seamlessly into users’ busy schedules, providing personalized content lasting between 3 and 25 minutes.
How does it work
AnyTopic users can enter a topic or question into the platform, which then searches for the most matching online content, including existing news, blogs and podcasts. This material is transformed into a mini audiobook adapted to the user’s interests and learning pace. Bite-sized episodes are great for listening on the go or for relaxing in the evening.
Choose ElevenLabs
When AnyTopic was in the development stages, the team focused on finding cutting-edge solutions for speech generation. The goal was to generate personalized audiobooks without relying on traditional voice actors. According to the team, they needed an AI speech generator that sounded non-robotic and engaging, similar to that of a great teacher. Poor audio quality was not an option, as it would dissuade students from continuing with the content.
After discovering ElevenLabs, known for its human-like voice generation, AnyTopic was impressed by the quality and decided to integrate it into its app. The integration process went smoothly, allowing AnyTopic to easily incorporate ElevenLabs’ speech API into its audiobook generation pipeline. ElevenLabs’ real-time latency allows for near-instant audio content generation, allowing students to immerse themselves in topics without long wait times.
Future perspectives
The app is currently in its beta phase but shows great promise. Daniel Rascon, co-founder and CEO of AnyTopic, expressed excitement about the future of personalized audio content. “ElevenLabs has been instrumental in helping us bring this vision to life quickly and at the level of quality we desire. We are excited to create more immersive audio experiences for our listeners,” said Rascon.
