ElevenLabs Conversational AI lets an agent use a Custom LLM: an OpenAI-compatible endpoint you supply instead of a built-in model. Point that at the SLNG Context Router and your agent keeps its voice, prompt, and tools while gaining response caching. Prerequisites:
  • An ElevenLabs account with a Conversational AI agent you can edit.
  • An SLNG key from app.slng.ai/api-keys.
  • Your region-specific router base URL from your SLNG contact (looks like https://[region].context-router.slng.ai/v1).

Open your agent's LLM settings

Choose Custom LLM

Select Custom LLM as the model provider. Set:
  • Server URL / Base URL: https://india.context-router.slng.ai/v1
  • Model ID: slng/auto
  • API key: SLNG_API_KEY (stored as a secret)
ElevenLabs calls <base-url>/chat/completions with your key as a Bearer token, which is exactly what the router expects.

Verify it is routing

Check the agent’s conversation logs, or replay a turn directly with a cURL request.
