Contact centers are constantly seeking ways to enhance customer experience and operational efficiency. Large Language Models (LLMs) have emerged as powerful tools capable of transforming how businesses interact with their customers. From streamlining support processes to personalizing interactions, LLMs offer a wealth of possibilities for contact centers looking to stay ahead of the curve. But do they need to develop custom AI solutions to take advantage of the benefits of LLMs? In this post, we cover

Testing real-time communication applications goes beyond ensuring basic functionality and UI responsiveness; it also involves evaluating performance under varying network conditions. Due to their portable nature, mobile applications are especially likely to be used across diverse network environments. Therefore, it is essential to ensure they perform optimally in all scenarios, guaranteeing a seamless user experience regardless of location or network stability. Network throttling is a technique that allows developers to simulate different network speeds and

Real-time communication has become an essential part of the way we interact with each other over the internet. From video calls and live streaming to interactive gaming and instant messaging, we are constantly relying on reliable and instantaneous exchanges of information. Enter WebRTC: a transformative technology standard that enables real-time communication directly through web browsers without needing additional software. In this post, we'll delve into the essence of WebRTC, exploring its standards, technological framework, and

There is unparalleled potential in leveraging the power of Amazon Connect contact center and customer service software,

CommCon 2024, CommCon’s first US event, was held at Cloudflare's San Francisco office this June. I was happy to be able to attend and finally see CommCon in person for the first time! The rapport between the friendly community of internet media and telephony developers and the excellent talks exceeded my expectations and left me excited for future events.  Here’s a roundup of the presentations. MOQing the World at Low Latencies The conference started with

Each month, we ask our dynamic team of WebRTC developers, mobile developers, designers, testers, DevOps experts, and project leads to share some of the impactful work they did in the past month. Here’s a short list of some that might interest you — at least the ones we can talk about! High Availability and Fault Tolerance for Satellite Communication We have designed the architecture for a highly available and fault-tolerant application tailored for satellite communication.

Last month I attended a remarkable WebRTC conference, JanusCon, which WebRTC.ventures also sponsored. I was fortunate as well to present a talk on integrating WebRTC with Large Action Models (LAMs). While "Large Action Models" is not yet an industry-wide term, it is generating interest from AI startups like Rabbit and browserbase, and is worthy of consideration from a WebRTC perspective.  LAMs (Large Action Models) are a subset of Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) that can perform

Maintaining and updating WebRTC applications is complex, involving frequent updates to libraries and infrastructure components to keep them secure and efficient. Canary releases provide a strategic way to handle these updates with minimal risk. By deploying changes to a small group of users initially, developers can monitor the new version's performance and address any issues before a full rollout.  In this post, we describe how canary releases are particularly beneficial for updating WebRTC applications, why

If there’s a single theme on the WebRTC.ventures blog, it’s that WebRTC is about much more than just video. While most applications we develop include a video component, the audio and data channels of WebRTC can be used independently of the video channels. In this post, I explore a few of the WebRTC audio use cases that have come up across our content over the last six months. These conversations with industry experts in WebRTC,

On the June 18, 2024 episode of WebRTC Live, Arin welcomed Pion founder Sean DuBois to talk about about broadcasting with WebRTC and OBS. Sean is very active in the WebRTC community. He is the creator of Pion (a WebRTC implementation 100% in Go), a developer at Twitch, Field CTO for LiveKit, and author of WebRTC for the Curious.

After a promising minimum viable product (MVP) using Bubble, our client approached us to help plan the production-ready iteration of their native voice chat app. The project extended beyond conventional mobile app development, encompassing features like capturing and streaming local content, connecting users within the social application, and implementing audio recording and transcription capabilities for moderation purposes. Type of Application: Native iOS Social Audio App Assessment Client: Under NDA until Launch Deliverables: Audio streaming architecture

Imagine turning hours of call transcripts into concise summaries with just a few lines of code, all without provisioning any servers. In this "WebRTC Tips" video, our WebRTC Developer Advocate, Hector Zelaya, demonstrates how to leverage AWS Lambda to build a serverless process that reads call transcript files from Amazon S3 and uses Meta Llama 3 on Amazon Bedrock for seamless summarization. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwyj0RF37U8 At WebRTC.ventures, we specialize in integrating AI features into real-time apps.

It's crucial to ensure your application runs smoothly not only in a variety of network conditions, but also on all platforms. My exploration of network performance testing began in a previous post titled, Testing macOS Network Conditions Using Apple’s Network Link Conditioner. Today, I will turn from macOS to iOS and iPadOS devices.  As defined in that first post, network throttling is a technique that helps us understand how applications perform under various network conditions.

Welcome to a new WebRTC.ventures series where I ask members of our expert WebRTC.ventures team how they work their magic. Ensuring a flawless experience for live event streaming applications means preparing for the inevitable—unstable network conditions when broadcasting. To tackle this, developers and testers must simulate various network issues to see how their applications will perform in the real world. But how? With this question in mind, I reached out to our team of skilled QA

Real-time communication has become indispensable for both processes and products. Video meetings support internal communications for remote teams and facilitate sales and customer service activities. They are also increasingly integrated as a standard feature in software products and platforms sold by businesses. When developing video call capabilities, companies face a crucial decision: should they use a starter kit or build an application from scratch?  Here are key factors to consider: 5 Reasons to Use a

WebRTC enables developers to build powerful web-based real-time communication applications. While typically implemented in web browsers, you can also integrate this functionality into native applications by embedding the WebRTC standard into the application’s codebase. This is usually done using libWebRTC, an open-source project maintained by Google that provides a comprehensive implementation of the WebRTC protocols and APIs.  In this post, we provide an overview of the process of building a native video chat application using
