Today we're launching Expressive mode in LiveKit Agents. Most voice agents deliver every sentence in that same, upbeat register we all know and hate (including bad news). Expressive mode makes your agent sound like it registers what the caller is actually feeling.

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 Google DeepMind. One LiveKit Cloud key, one bill.

GPT-Live-1 OpenAI Developers is now supported in LiveKit Agents. It's full-duplex, so it listens and speaks at the same time instead of taking turns, and it hands reasoning and tool calls off to a backend model so a slow lookup doesn't leave your agent sitting in dead air. Same `AgentSession` API. New plugin: `GPTLiveModel`. Get started:

Today we’re launching our first homegrown AI model: an open source turn detection model for building voice agents. Instead of relying solely on voice activity detection (VAD), which only considers when a user is speaking, our model also considers what has and is being said in the context of a conversation and predicts when a user is finished expressing their thoughts before the agent responds. Conversations with AI voice agents using this new model flow much more naturally without constant interruptions from the AI— check it out (more videos, details, and code in the thread):

Voice agents do not sound robotic because they are slow. They sound robotic because the model writes like an essay and then reads it out loud. We just shared a post on making STT to LLM to TTS sound human. Make the model more human by including ums, sos, real pauses, and even laughter tags. Tiny rhythm changes can make a huge difference.

We shipped LiveKit Turn Detector v1. Instead of reading transcripts, it listens to speech directly, combining semantic and acoustic cues into one end-of-turn prediction. The result: high accuracy, low latency—the best model we tested across 14 languages. Available on LiveKit Cloud.

Voice cloning is now available on LiveKit Inference. We’re launching with and Cartesia. Clone a voice once and use it across multiple TTS providers, with automatic fallback to the same voice if a provider fails mid-call. Free to create and available on all paid plans today.
