The core differentiator is customization, letting users select their preferred narrator for thousands of available eBooks.

You can access the library through the ElevenReader mobile app or web interface. While the app remains free for personal uploads like PDFs, the premium library and unlimited listening require a subscription to the new Ultra plan. The service currently supports content in 32 languages and is localized for eight global markets.
