LiveKit Quick Start

pip install livekit-agents livekit-plugins-sarvam livekit-plugins-silero

from livekit.agents import Agent, AgentSession, JobContext, WorkerOptions, cli
from livekit.plugins import sarvam, silero

class VoiceAssistant(Agent):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(
            vad=silero.VAD.load(),
            stt=sarvam.STT(model="saaras:v3"),
            llm=sarvam.LLM(model="sarvam-30b"),
            tts=sarvam.TTS(model="bulbul:v3", voice="shubh")
        )

    async def on_enter(self, session: AgentSession):
        await session.say("नमस्ते! मैं आपकी कैसे मदद कर सकती हूं?")

async def entrypoint(ctx: JobContext):
    agent = VoiceAssistant()
    await agent.start(ctx)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    cli.run_app(WorkerOptions(entrypoint_fnc=entrypoint))

Pipecat Quick Start

pip install pipecat-ai "pipecat-ai[sarvam,silero,daily]"

from pipecat.pipeline import Pipeline
from pipecat.services.sarvam import SarvamSTT, SarvamTTS, SarvamLLM
from pipecat.vad.silero import SileroVAD
from pipecat.transports.local import LocalAudioTransport

transport = LocalAudioTransport()
pipeline = Pipeline([
    transport.input(), SileroVAD(),
    SarvamSTT(model="saaras:v3"),
    SarvamLLM(model="sarvam-30b", system_prompt="You are a helpful voice assistant."),
    SarvamTTS(model="bulbul:v3", voice="shubh"),
    transport.output()
])

JavaScript/TypeScript Note

LiveKit and Pipecat agents are Python-only. For JS/TS voice pipelines, use the individual SDK methods directly:

import { SarvamAIClient } from "sarvamai";
const client = new SarvamAIClient({ apiSubscriptionKey: "YOUR_SARVAM_API_KEY" });

// STT: client.speechToText.transcribe({...})
// TTS: client.textToSpeech.convertStream({...})  // returns BinaryResponse
// LLM: client.chat.completions({...})
