Testing a voice agent

Test a voice agent right in the browser with the LiveKit console — no phone number required.

Using the console​

  1. Open the voice agent and start a test session.
  2. Grant microphone access when prompted.
  3. Speak to the agent; it responds in real time using its configured voice and model.
  4. End the session and adjust the voice, provider, or LLM as needed.

What to check​

  • Latency — does the agent respond quickly enough to feel natural?
  • Voice — is the chosen voice right for your brand?
  • Turn-taking — does it handle interruptions and pauses gracefully?
  • Accuracy — does it understand callers and answer correctly?

Once the agent sounds right in the console, attach a number via telephony to take it live.

tip

Test sessions consume credits at the same rate as live calls, so keep test runs focused.
