The Live API enables low-latency, real-time voice and video interactions with Gemini over WebSockets. It processes continuous streams of audio, video, or text to deliver immediate, human-like spoken responses.

[!NOTE] The Live API currently only supports WebSockets. For WebRTC support or simplified integration, use a partner integration.

[!WARNING] The following Live API models are deprecated and will be shut down. Migrate to gemini-2.5-flash-native-audio-preview-12-2025. gemini-live-2.5-flash-preview — Released June 17, 2025. Shutdown: December 9, 2025.
