Combine LiveKit's programmable audio pipeline with @inworld's state-of-the-art TTS and natural-language steering for emotionally grounded, turn-based dialogue and instant feedback
Our @livekit partner story explores how Inworld’s speech models and LiveKit’s realtime infrastructure help developers build voice applications that can scale with their users.
Through Inworld’s integration with the LiveKit Agents framework, developers can use pre-built or custom voices alongside their choice of LLM and speech recognition models, with LiveKit handling realtime communication across web and mobile apps.
The accompanying video takes a closer look at expressive delivery, including how TTS-2’s voice steering helped the team bring Expressive Mode to LiveKit Agents.
“Inworld's TTS-2 marks a real step forward in emotionally expressive voice synthesis. When combined with the conversational intelligence of LiveKit agents, it enables interactions that feel genuinely human, responsive, nuanced, and alive in ways that feel natural.” - David Zhao, CTO, LiveKit

“In today’s world, ‘low code’ really just means ‘low customization.’”
@_kyleshechtman and @chasef07 started Acuity Health on a low-code platform, hit a wall, and rebuilt on LiveKit. Now 80% of patient calls are fully handled by their agents, and most bookings take under a minute.

Two small models we trained for voice agents: turn detection knows when the user is actually done talking, adaptive interruption knows “uh huh” isn’t an interruption.
Free for agents on LiveKit Cloud. Starting today, self-hosted agents can run them in production too: a free development allowance, then metered per request. The old monthly cap is gone.

Meet SpookyKit, five haunted voices for your voice agent 🎃
Voices from LiveKit coworkers (guess who?), via @FishAudio as a custom voice:
🕯️ the hollow whisperer (v_rcMdmMksGhqr)
📞 the grave caller (v_ou7cbav4LMuq)
🌊 the thing below (v_U9DZ7HDMqqtM)
Voices summoned from the shadows by our spooky friends at @GradiumAI 🧡
💀 the bone barker (hwchrc8s07s20000)
📻 the dead air host (hwchrc8s07s00000)
paste a voice ID into LiveKit Inference or Agent Builder and go give someone a fright 👻

Voice agents get built three ways: cascaded (STT, LLM, TTS), turn-based speech-to-speech, and full-duplex, where the model listens and talks at the same time.
All three now run on LiveKit Inference: GPT-Live and GPT Realtime from @OpenAI, @grok Voice Think Fast from @xai, and Gemini Live from @GoogleDeepMind. One LiveKit Cloud key, one bill.
Interested in trying @GoogleDeepMind's Gemini-4 Argon? It's available in LiveKit Inference! Drop it into your voice agent with a single line of code, run a test call, and hear the difference for yourself.

80% of Moss customers use @livekit. 👀
LiveKit handles real-time voice. Moss handles the retrieval.
Together, your agent gets the context it needs on every turn, automatically.
No tool call. No extra roundtrip. No dead air.
Sub-10ms retrieval for voice AI.

> Direct a voice line by line, then hear it hold up through a real conversation.
That’s what stood out when we tested Gemini 3.8 Flash-Lite TTS inside a LiveKit agent.
Expressive speech, custom voices, and a production-ready voice library.

LiveKit has acquired @LoopholeLabs, an infrastructure company whose technology will enhance our platform for building voice, video, and physical AI agents.
With their team, we move closer to offering customers essentially unlimited concurrent agents.
