AI for Video: A Complete Guide to Intelligence in Video Products: From Real-Time Pipelines and Agents to Serving, Cost, Compliance, and Verticals
LiveKit lets an AI join a WebRTC room as a participant, and latency and cost depend on how the agent pipeline around it is built. This volume covers LiveKit in the real-time context: AI in the WebRTC pipeline, voice and meeting agents, call latency budgets, serving, and cost per stream-hour. Written by Nikolay Sapunov, CEO at Fora Soft.
