Using Deepgram Voice Agent (JavaScript / TypeScript SDK)

Full-duplex voice agent runtime over wss://agent.deepgram.com/v1/agent/converse: audio in, LLM orchestration, audio out, plus function calling and prompt/runtime updates.

When to use this product

• You want an interactive voice assistant where the user speaks, the agent thinks, and the agent responds with speech.
• You need function / tool calling inside the conversation loop.
• You want Deepgram to host the STT + think + TTS orchestration.

Use a different skill when:

• You only need transcription → deepgram-js-speech-to-text or deepgram-js-conversational-stt.
• You only need synthesis → deepgram-js-text-to-speech.
• You want project keys, usage, models, or other admin APIs → deepgram-js-management-api.
