AI-voices, accents and best supported languages

Currently, we use Elevenlabs as the provider for AI-voiceover.

They stated that: 

The language is determined by the text, while the accent and pronunciation are determined by the voice itself.

However, our tests with different languages and accents doesn’t provide enough confidence that the accent will be preserved from the AI-voice.

Here’s the list of voices and accents we use now, and recommendations (by Elevenlabs) on what other languages this voice works well:
