Common causes of "ElevenLabs not working"

If Prismix shows ElevenLabs as "Operational" but your requests are failing:

  • Character quota exhausted — Each plan has a monthly character limit. Free tier: 10k chars/month. Check usage at elevenlabs.io/app/subscription.
  • API key invalid (401) — Generate a new key at elevenlabs.io/app/settings/api-keys. Keys are account-specific, not workspace-specific.
  • Voice ID not found (404) — Shared voices can be removed from the marketplace. Save voice IDs from your own Voice Library, not shared ones.
  • Rate limit exceeded (429) — ElevenLabs applies concurrent request limits. Serialize requests if generating many clips in parallel.
  • Streaming issues — Streaming TTS requires Accept: audio/mpeg header. Without it, the API returns PCM or errors.
  • Voice cloning quota — Instant Voice Cloning is limited on lower tiers. Professional Voice Cloning requires Creator tier or above.
