Matt Ebso
- ElevenLabs Voice Creator
- ~$1,160 monthly passive income
A Redditor got laid off in late 2024 and started licensing AI voice clones on ElevenLabs.
13 months later: 8 voices earning ~$1,160/month 🤑
📝 From the full breakdown…
The real strategy is building a portfolio of voices, not just one.
You record 30+ minutes of audio, upload your voice clone to ElevenLabs’ Voice Library, and get paid every time someone uses it for text-to-speech. YouTubers, audiobook producers, app devs – they all need natural-sounding AI voices.
Weekly payouts via Stripe.
The portfolio breakdown 👇
- Meditation/calm (top earner): ~$309/mo
- Narration (2 voices): ~$120/mo
- Conversational/podcast: ~$110/mo
- Character voices: ~$100/mo
🧐 Each voice needs its own $22/month Creator Plan – but even the worst performer ($16/mo) nearly pays for itself.
Time invested now: 1-2 hours per month.
If you can follow instructions and speak clearly into a microphone, you can do this.
No audio background needed. A quiet room and a $30 mic is enough to get started 😎
