Thanks for the request! I'd love to add this as an official integration, however currently I'm traveling full time and unable to dedicate time for developing this much further than keeping the lights on.
There is still a lot of missing test coverage which I think will block this becoming part of core for a while.

If you can suggest anybody who'd like to take this over I'd likely be willing to give the keys over to someone with more time for this, or I could at least still support in general maintenance etc. Otherwise I expect at least another couple of months before I settle down and start using HA again (after getting a new home) and would have time and practicality to work on this again.

Hi! I'm not sure whether it would be easy to contribute this to the core repo as core requires any communication with an external service to be done through a pypi-package, thus I'm pretty sure the elevenlabs.py would not go through.
I have rewritten part of the integration from scratch using the elevenlabs python sdk and created a PR for this (home-assistant/core#115645)
It is not feature complete, so maybe we can take your config_flow.py and add the required features using the elevenlabs python sdk? I did not want to copy your code without asking though...

@sorgfresser thanks for asking, but it's no problem at all, copy anything that's useful. Maybe when I am able to use HA again I'll be able to start contributing to your official integration rather than this one.
