WebGPU lets JavaScript drive the graphics card for heavy parallel work, including neural networks, inside a normal web page. It makes in-browser inference — background blur, client-side transcription — fast enough for real time without a server round-trip.

AI for Video: A Complete Guide to Intelligence in Video Products: From Real-Time Pipelines and Agents to Serving, Cost, Compliance, and Verticals
WebGPU turns the browser into a place where background blur or transcription can run in real time, but GPU support still varies by browser and device. Volume 7 covers WebGPU in detail as part of real-time AI in calls: the call latency budget, where AI plugs into a WebRTC pipeline and client versus server inference cost. Written by Nikolay Sapunov, CEO at Fora Soft.
