Daily runs a global WebRTC infrastructure for real-time audio and video calls, and it is the team behind Pipecat, the open-source orchestration framework for voice and multimodal agents. For agent builders the platform serves as the transport layer: a Pipecat agent joins a Daily room and exchanges audio and video with people through the same infrastructure that hosts human-to-human calls.
Client SDKs cover JavaScript, React, React Native, iOS, Android, Flutter, and Python, and Daily Prebuilt drops a complete call UI into a page with one line. A REST API creates rooms, issues meeting tokens, and configures domains from your backend, while webhooks report call events. Pipecat Cloud hosts Pipecat agents on the same network with containerized deployment, autoscaling across regions, and bundled PSTN and SIP telephony plus Krisp noise cancellation.
