Google's rapid prototyping IDE and developer API workbench for building multimodal applications with Gemini models.
Allows developers to drop hours of video, multi-track audio files, high-resolution images, entire codebases, and multi-hundred-page PDFs directly into the prompt window with up to 1,000,000 tokens of shared context.
Provides direct access to Google's frontier reasoning and agentic models with granular controls over thinking tokens, temperature, function declarations, and strict JSON schema output validation.
Includes a dedicated `/live` studio interface for testing sub-second, bidirectional voice and screen/camera interactions powered by `gemini-3.8-live`, `gemini-3.8-live-extended-thinking`, and `gemini-3.5-live-translate-preview`.
Connects model responses to live Google Search results and Google Maps geospatial data with a single toggle, including 5,000 free grounded requests per month on Paid tiers before $14/1,000-query metering.
Build, test, and deploy production-grade voice AI agents over API
Configure speech recognition, an LLM reasoning layer and text-to-speech through one API instead of integrating several vendors separately.
The platform handles real-time audio streaming, interruption handling and call state so conversations feel natural and responsive.
Provision Vapi phone numbers or bring Twilio, Vonage or Telnyx, and support both inbound and outbound calling from the same agent.
Simulate calls before launch, then track transcripts, effectiveness metrics and compliance signals across every production call.
SpecialistProvides raw frontier language models and real-time multimodal capabilities, requiring custom scaffolding compared to Vapi's voice workflows.
