Your AI platform writes the narration, the ElevenLabs MCP server generates the audio, and you import it into your video editor such as Descript. Only use voices you have the rights to.

Confirmed
Confirmed means the vendor documents it (linked). It doesn't mean IonBin has tested it. AI-platform and human steps need no source.
Human approval
You approve the final mix. Cloned voices need the speaker’s explicit consent.

Starter prompt
Goal: Get a clean, consistent voiceover for product videos without booking a studio. Tools involved: ElevenLabs, Descript. Your part: writes the narration script, timed to the video; generates the voiceover audio through its mcp server. Work step by step, show me each draft or proposed change, and wait for my approval before anything is sent, published, signed, filed or changed in a live system.
Assembled from this page’s goal and steps. Paste it into your AI platform and adjust it to your situation.
Computed from the MCP and API steps only: "Confirmed" needs the tool's docs to name the platform and the platform to support the connection. Browser, upload and human steps work from any platform.
What we checked
ElevenLabs MCP generates voice, music, images and video from one connector, according to ElevenLabs. Sign-in is a one-time OAuth flow with no API key, and you can revoke it at any time. ElevenLabs publishes setup steps for ChatGPT, Claude, Claude Code and other clients.
Rights. On paid ElevenLabs plans you get commercial rights to what you generate. On the free plan you can use output only non-commercially, with attribution.
Credits. The MCP page doesn’t list what each generation costs. Check usage in your ElevenLabs account after a short test before you voice a long script.
Descript MCP connects through your Descript login and asks which Drive the assistant may use. It can import media and edit with Underlord. Imports use media minutes, and Underlord edits can use AI credits. It can’t import from YouTube URLs: pass a direct file URL, upload the file, or use a Google Drive or Dropbox link.
Set it up
Ask your AI platform for a narration script timed to the video’s sections, and read it aloud once yourself.
Generate the voiceover through ElevenLabs MCP with a voice you have the rights to use.
Import the audio into Descript (or your editor) and line it up with the edit.
Check pronunciation, pacing and names before you publish. Cloned voices need the speaker’s explicit consent.
