ElevenLabs is integrating its ElevenAgents platform into SlackBot to enable natural-sounding audio and voice-driven interactions. This shift transforms Slack from a text-heavy messaging hub into a multimodal orchestrator where teams can manage complex tasks through conversation.

ElevenLabs is bringing its conversational AI technology to Slack through a new integration powered by ElevenAgents. This update allows SlackBot to generate natural-sounding audio and engage in voice-based interactions directly within the workspace. It transforms the bot from a notification system into a voice-capable interface for team collaboration.

This partnership aligns with a broader strategy to position the platform as an enterprise orchestrator. By adding a voice layer, the system bridges the gap between text-based chat and autonomous agents like Salesforce's Agentforce. It enables more intuitive interaction with the thousands of tools already integrated into the ecosystem.

You can now use these voice capabilities to automate routine workflows and query internal information more naturally. The integration streamlines how teams access data without leaving their communication channels. The system leverages infrastructure supporting over 400 pre-configured integrations to connect voice agents to various enterprise systems.
