View Full Features →LiveKit Agents handles the complex real-time communication plumbing that's extremely difficult to build correctly: WebRTC transport, echo cancellation, Voice Activity Detection, interruption handling, turn-taking, and streaming orchestration between pipeline stages. It also manages connection lifecycle, reconnection, and scaling. Building this from scratch typically takes months of engineering — LiveKit Agents provides it as a tested, production-ready framework that you configure rather than build.
Yes, the entire stack — LiveKit Server, the Agents framework, and client SDKs — is open-source under Apache 2.0. You can self-host on any infrastructure using Docker or Kubernetes. LiveKit provides Helm charts for Kubernetes deployment and detailed self-hosting documentation. LiveKit Cloud is available as a managed alternative for teams that prefer not to manage WebRTC infrastructure, with a free tier for development.
LiveKit Agents supports OpenAI's GPT-4o Realtime API for true speech-to-speech interaction where audio goes directly to the model without intermediate transcription. It also supports Google Gemini's multimodal capabilities. For traditional STT→LLM→TTS pipelines, it integrates with Deepgram, AssemblyAI, and Google for STT; OpenAI, Anthropic, and local models for LLMs; and ElevenLabs, Cartesia, PlayHT, and Azure for TTS.
LiveKit Agents uses a worker-based architecture where agent processes register with the LiveKit Server as available workers. When a user joins a room, the server dispatches an available worker to handle the session. You scale by running more worker processes across multiple machines. LiveKit Server handles load balancing and health monitoring. For LiveKit Cloud, scaling is automatic. Self-hosted deployments can use Kubernetes HPA based on active room counts or worker utilization.
AI builders and operators use LiveKit Agents to streamline their workflow.
