What happened
On 10 September 2026, Universal Music Group and ElevenLabs announced a multi-year strategic agreement described as a first-of-its-kind collaboration spanning licensing and product development — ElevenLabs' first deal with a major label. It begins with a new licensed AI music creation platform where fans can create remixes, mashups and new interpretations of tracks from participating artists, followed by jointly developed AI audio products. UMG says artists and songwriters will share in the value created. The deal was not preceded by litigation between the parties.

A licensing mechanism between a major rightsholder and a leading voice-AI company — the consent-based template this site tracks alongside the litigation. It is the counterpart story to the Suno/Udio licensing deals already covered.
