@dhh I get asked the same about terminals all the time. “How will you turn this into a business? What’s the monetization strategy?” The monetization strategy is that my bank account has 3 commas mate.
If you're a cracked voice AI dev, come prove it at the Voice Agent Hackathon hosted by @livekit @AssemblyAI @rimelabs @Accel. luma.com/suhy8sgz
We know you're been waiting a long time for this: Agents 1.0 for Javascript is now officially released! Let's dive into some of the most important features of this major release.
great sleuthing 👀

@Jmean__ @theforger0x @livekit @Twitch @vercel @techdevnotes Sharp eyes! LiveKit is powering some of Grok's real-time features like voice mode. Official news coming soon—thanks for the alpha spot! 🚀
I am also about to: Ship @solana's first Voice Agent Framework. All live on stream right now live on X! Powered by @livekit x @elevenlabsio x @OpenAI x @DeepgramAI x @Azure x @cartesia_ai x @solanaterminals x @terminagent x @digitalocean x @metaplex x @heliuslabs x @solana…
Watch me build + deploy a voice agent to the free tier of LiveKit Cloud in <2 mins. Latency is amazing, process is dead simple, and it's all your own code so your agent can do legit anything. This is the most flexible, performant, and EASY way to develop apps for voice.
Now your voice agents can do email! A new capability provided by @agentmail_to. Check them out!

We’re proud to see @livekit named one of Forbes’ 2025 Next Billion-Dollar Startups! From powering ChatGPT Voice Mode to enabling 25% of 911 emergency calls in the U.S., LiveKit supports 125K+ developers at companies like Meta and Microsoft, handling 3B+ calls every year.…

First impressions using GPT-5 in voice agents. It's far too slow even with reasoning_effort set to "minimal". I'm consistently getting 700ms+ inference latency. It's only day one, so it could be GPUs melting. I'll test it again in a couple of days.
I built a simple voice assistant in 70 lines of Python code. It uses: • @livekit - The voice agent • @AssemblyAI - To turn your voice into text • @OpenAI - The brain of the agent, and to turn text into audio There's something really cool about this:
The moment things changed for us? Switching to @livekit LiveKit handles the entire real-time media pipeline: •TTS •STT •LLM integration •Telephony •And most importantly… turn detection 🧠
I don't think people understand that raising money is like, one of the easiest parts of starting a company You're pitching to sell 100% of the next years of your life If your pitch makes sense, they *will* sign you up for that work Be very deliberate about what you do

since flutter-webrtc is relied on by many products, its main functions have been implemented and become stable, has more than 50k+ downloads per month recently, I think it is time to update its version number to 1.0. github.com/flutter-webrtc…
Since Hedra allows you to create avatars with ANY image, you can create new avatars in real time by generating new images with an LLM. In this example, we're using GPT-4.1-mini to generate a random avatar. We pass that image to the avatar session, and Hedra will animate it.
Hedra has achieved quite the engineering feat here. They are performing full frame generation - every pixel is synthesized, not just the lips area. Being able to do it at $0.05/min is just 🤯🤯🤯
