What is ElevenLabs?

ElevenLabs is turning voice agents into versioned software, with weekly API surface to prove it.

The changelog is dominated by ElevenAgents, shipped as dense weekly API digests rather than feature posts. Agents now have branches, merges, rebases and version filters, plus procedures that compile into workflows, knowledge-base crawl jobs and per-agent sentiment analysis. Alongside that, the core model lines keep advancing: Music v2, Speech Engine, and now Dubbing v2 through the API.

What is Redocly?

Redocly fixes API reference pages that broke on custom hooks across five packages.

Redocly's past week was fixes. On November 9 five packages shipped the same fix for API reference pages that showed an Unknown hook error instead of docs, plus a Try it console that now asks for a reload after a redeploy. Platform releases fixed editor hangs on large repos, rejected organization names that look like card numbers, and stopped redocly push reporting success on blocked publishes. Config 0.72.1 adds triggers and rules to the docs agent's support-conversation duty.

ElevenLabs is turning voice agents into versioned software, with weekly API surface to prove it.

◆ Current state

The changelog is dominated by ElevenAgents, shipped as dense weekly API digests rather than feature posts. Agents now have branches, merges, rebases and version filters, plus procedures that compile into workflows, knowledge-base crawl jobs and per-agent sentiment analysis. Alongside that, the core model lines keep advancing: Music v2, Speech Engine, and now Dubbing v2 through the API.

◆ Where it's heading

Two arcs run in parallel. The agent platform is acquiring the mechanics of source control, which points at teams operating many agent versions in production rather than one hand-tuned assistant. The model lines are being rebuilt one at a time and exposed API-first, with older v1 models given explicit removal dates. Dubbing is the newest line to make that jump.

◆ Prediction

The v1 deprecation pattern suggests dubbing_v1 gets a removal date next, and the branch tooling looks close to gaining an approval or promotion step given merge previews already exist.

Redocly fixes API reference pages that broke on custom hooks across five packages.

◆ Current state

Redocly's past week was fixes. On November 9 five packages shipped the same fix for API reference pages that showed an Unknown hook error instead of docs, plus a Try it console that now asks for a reload after a redeploy. Platform releases fixed editor hangs on large repos, rejected organization names that look like card numbers, and stopped redocly push reporting success on blocked publishes. Config 0.72.1 adds triggers and rules to the docs agent's support-conversation duty.

◆ Where it's heading

After the Markdoc fork and docs agent changes on November 3 and 4, Redocly is in stabilization. The agent work continues in config, where the support-conversation duty can now run on a schedule against a Front desk.

◆ Prediction

Expect more docs agent duties and options in config, and further fix batches as the Markdoc fork settles.
