## Gotchas

- Store the API key in environment variables or a secrets manager; never commit it to code or config in version control.
- Use API keys only server-side; do not expose them in client-side or mobile code.
- Free tier has usage limits; check [Pricing](https://elevenlabs.io/pricing) on the site for current plans.
