LiveKit

LiveKit is an advanced open-source framework and managed cloud platform designed specifically for building voice, video, and physical AI agents. By providing a highly scalable WebRTC-based media server, comprehensive SDKs, and a dedicated AI agent platform, LiveKit enables developers to seamlessly integrate real-time audio and video capabilities into their applications. It ensures ultra-low latency and robust connection quality, which are essential for interactive conversational AI, live streaming, and robotics. The platform boasts a massive developer community, reflected by over 17.5K GitHub stars on its core repository and 9.7K stars on its AI agents framework. LiveKit supports dual deployment models: users can completely self-host the open-source media server for maximum control or utilize LiveKit Cloud for a globally distributed, fully managed infrastructure. With built-in tools like connection testers, video codec optimization, and native integration for modern AI models, LiveKit is the foundational infrastructure for the next generation of real-time AI applications.
