Where the sources disagree

Recorded rather than resolved. Picking the tidier number would hide the fact that the vendor's own pages do not agree.

What to understand before using it

Explainers naming the mechanisms this model's own documentation mentions.

MCP servers that front ElevenLabs

Servers in the media MCP directory whose own description or homepage names this vendor. Absence of a server here is not evidence that none exists: most publish no tool list at all.

26 further servers name ElevenLabs with lower confidence and are not listed, because a server naming a vendor may be using it for text rather than media.
