About Eleven Realtime v1 Max

Eleven Realtime v1 Max is ElevenLabs' speech-to-speech voice agent model for complex tasks, released October 20, 2026. Like v1 Mini it combines speech recognition, turn-taking, a language model and text-to-speech in one end-to-end tuned cascaded system, but it reasons before it responds and is aimed at long instructions and multi-step tool use such as customer support and lead qualification. It supports 90+ languages and ElevenLabs reports 570 ms time to first audio.
