How Real-Time Voice Agents Work: Media Infrastructure and Latency

I’ve been working on real time voice agents and put together a write up of what I’ve learned about the full stack including WebRTC media transport, streaming STT, incremental LLM inference, and TTS, along with where latency actually accumulates.

The post focuses on the architectural flow and practical tradeoffs involved in keeping interactions truly real time.

Curious how others are designing and optimizing voice systems.
