Editor's take
Founders shipping a voice or audio feature who can absorb the branding requirement.
You sell into government or enterprise. The footer badge invites procurement questions you do not want to answer.
Grantees must display the ElevenLabs Grants logo in their site footer, linking back to ElevenLabs, for at least 12 months. That is a real cost, not a formality. Price it before you accept.
The backlink condition is the deciding factor on this one, which is why it leads the gotchas rather than sitting in the fine print.
