PublishDrive Partners with ElevenReader for Instant Audiobook Creation
Turn your ebooks into professional audiobooks in minutes and reach millions of new listeners worldwide.
We’re thrilled to announce a new chapter in audio publishing — PublishDrive now partners with ElevenReader, the innovative audiobook platform powered by ElevenLabs’ advanced AI narration technology.
This partnership makes PublishDrive the first distribution aggregator to publish directly through ElevenReader, opening the door for authors and publishers to create professional-quality audiobooks instantly, without any recording studios, voice actors, or production costs.
Starting October 7, 2025, your words can reach millions of audiobook listeners around the world — effortlessly.
A Revolution in Audiobook Publishing
Creating audiobooks has always been a challenge. Between studio sessions, narration fees, and editing time, turning a written book into an audiobook could take months and cost thousands.
Now, that’s a thing of the past.
With ElevenReader, powered by ElevenLabs, your book is transformed into an audiobook within minutes using state-of-the-art AI narration that captures natural tone, rhythm, and emotion. The result sounds human, expressive, and deeply engaging — all with zero upfront investment.
And because it’s fully integrated into the PublishDrive platform, distributing your new audiobook is as simple as enabling a store.
