Way better

Did you have some iconic voice selected? It skipped most likely due to inappropriate content. You can try with some non iconic voice

Wasn't using an iconic voice but it does seem to be voice specific, good call

Rev share is up to 20% on default rates (depending on notice period). With custom rates they can make their voice more expensive and earn up to $0.2 for every 1000 characters. So you can do the math.

The math is you're paying a pittance considering the insane margins involved and the fact you're using their voices in a flywheel that's actively obsoleting them.

Edit: And since you're concerned we might not be aware of Elevenlabs' generous terms... why is your documentation so cagey about them? https://elevenlabs.io/docs/product-guides/voices/payouts#thi...

I see users need to keep paying you a subscription fee in order to even get their payouts... but "up to 20%" isn't saying particularly much without the kind of details that should probably be on that page.

Considering how much your company owes to an open source model, it's also impressive how little you've returned to the commons.

But no worries, the top comment under this post is an open source model that was finetuned for a couple of thousand dollars by a single dude soliciting the public for random voice samples.

If Google has no moat, you're out to sea.
