How to call ElevenLabs Multilingual v2

Pass elevenlabs/multilingual-v2 as the model field. The first request returns a 402 with the exact price; a signed retry runs it, and the client libraries fold the two into one call — how the payment works. Request and response shapes are in the docs.

curl -X POST https://blockrun.ai/api/v1/audio/speech \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"model": "elevenlabs/multilingual-v2", "input": "Your order has shipped and arrives on Friday."}'

ElevenLabs Multilingual v2 or another speech model

Two ways to run this

Get an API key

Sign in, get a key, and call the same endpoints with usage billed to your account. For teams that want one invoice instead of one wallet.

Get an API key 

Or let your agent pay per call, in USDC

No account, no API key. Three steps, and the last one is the request this page is about.

  1. 01
    Point your agent at BlockRun

    Install ClawRouter, or add the BlockRun MCP server to Claude Code, Cursor, Codex or OpenClaw. Any OpenAI-compatible client works too — change the base URL, nothing else.

    curl -fsSL https://blockrun.ai/ClawRouter-update | bash
  2. 02
    Fund a wallet with USDC

    Send USDC to a wallet on Base, Solana or Arc. There is no account to create and no API key to issue: the wallet is the account, and it pays per call.

  3. 03
    Call ElevenLabs Multilingual v2

    The first call returns HTTP 402 with the exact price, your agent signs it, and the answer comes back. Payment settles on-chain; nothing is charged if the call fails.

    curl -X POST https://blockrun.ai/api/v1/audio/speech \
      -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
      -d '{"model": "elevenlabs/multilingual-v2", "input": "Your order has shipped and arrives on Friday."}'
