Yes. LiveKit describes both the LiveKit Agents framework and LiveKit media server as open source, and teams can run LiveKit locally or host infrastructure themselves. LiveKit Cloud is also available for managed deployment.
LiveKit documentation describes model-provider integrations through LiveKit Inference and open-source plugins, including providers for LLMs, speech-to-text, text-to-speech, and realtime speech models. Teams should verify the current plugin list in LiveKit documentation before choosing a provider.
LiveKit Agents is more of a programmable real-time media and agent infrastructure layer, while Vapi, Retell AI, Daily Bots, and Bland AI are generally positioned closer to hosted voice-agent products. Choose LiveKit when media control, video, WebRTC rooms, self-hosting options, or custom frontend integration matter.
