Open Source Everything

LiveKit

LiveKit is a server that lets people, devices and AI agents talk by voice, video and data in the same online room. It is for developers who want to build calling, video or voice AI features into their own apps and run them on their own servers.

Something wrong?

Wrong devices, a wrong description, or it isn't really open source? A mod reviews every suggestion.

What we couldn't confirm3
  • The README does not say whether the Agora or Twilio comparison is accurate for pricing, features or scale beyond what the lists state.
  • Whether the SDKs and companion services (Egress, Ingress, SIP) are all open source under the same license is not confirmed in the material given.
  • The README mentions LiveKit Cloud and paid plans; it does not state what features, if any, are restricted to paid or closed parts of the project.
