Pros and cons

ElevenLabs

Pros

  • Broad product range in one account: text-to-speech, speech-to-text, cloning, dubbing, sound effects, music and agents
  • Language coverage of 90+ languages on Eleven v4 and Scribe v2
  • Low-latency models: Flash v2.5 at about 75 ms and Eleven v4 Turbo at about 100 ms median
  • Free plan with 10,000 credits per month for testing
  • Official SDKs for Python and TypeScript, plus mobile and React SDKs for agents

Cons

  • Credits are consumed quickly on long-form work; the Starter plan's 30,000 credits is about 30 minutes of text-to-speech
  • The Free plan has no commercial license and needs attribution when published
  • Professional Voice Cloning requires Creator ($22 per month) or higher
  • Plan structure is complex, with credits, concurrency limits and different per-model API rates

Granola

Pros

  • No bot joins calls, which keeps meetings less intrusive
  • Notes are private by default with granular sharing controls
  • Broad integration set including HubSpot, Attio, Notion, Salesforce and Zapier
  • MCP connector and REST API make notes usable in AI assistants and custom workflows
  • Documented SOC 2 Type 2 compliance and an Enterprise tier with SSO, SCIM and HIPAA workspaces
  • Desktop, mobile and Apple Watch apps cover in-person meetings

Cons

  • Free plan limits viewing to 30 days of meeting history and excludes pre-meeting briefs, follow-up emails and API access
  • API and most integrations require the $14 Business plan or higher
  • Reviewers report AI summaries can compress nuance or overstate decisions, so notes need review
  • Relies on device audio, so some meeting-room hardware setups may not work well
  • Granola trains its own models on anonymized user data unless users opt out in Settings
