Turn text into natural-sounding speech with **ElevenLabs** — add a "listen" button to
articles, narrate content, or make your site more accessible.

## Setup

In **Settings → Connectors → ElevenLabs**:

| Field | What to enter |
| --- | --- |
| **API key** *(secret)* | From ElevenLabs → Profile → API Keys (starts `sk_…`). |
| **Voice ID** *(optional)* | A default voice (e.g. `21m00Tcm4TlvDq8ikWAM`). You can also let Genesis pick one in chat. |

Your key is encrypted server-side; audio is generated through the relay and returned to the
page.

## Example prompts

Just describe it — no special syntax needed:

- *"add a 'Listen to this article' button that reads the post aloud"*
- *"narrate the page summary in a friendly voice"*
- *"read the testimonial text aloud when it's clicked"*

## Use cases

- A **read-aloud button** on blog posts and long pages.
- **Narrated summaries** for content or product pages.
- **Accessibility** — spoken playback for visitors who prefer listening.
- **Voiceovers** for short on-page clips.

Republish your site after configuring.
