ElevenLabs Speech Engine adds LiveKit support

ElevenLabs' Speech Engine now integrates with LiveKit, enabling developers to connect voice agents to real-time communication rooms via a worker that bridges audio streams. This integration supports both Python and Node.js, allowing developers to build low-latency voice-driven applications using existing LLM logic.

// ANALYSIS

This integration significantly simplifies the process of bringing production-grade conversational AI voices to real-time voice calls.

* Allows voice agents to easily participate in multi-party RTC sessions instead of being limited to 1:1 browser sessions.

* Offloads voice orchestration challenges like turn-taking and interruption handling to ElevenLabs while keeping core LLM websocket logic unchanged.

* Highlights Python as the preferred ecosystem for production real-time media agents, given the Node.js implementation relies on developer preview SDKs.
