GPT-Live 1 now available on AI Gateway
GPT-Live 1 from OpenAI is now available on AI Gateway.
GPT-Live 1 is a full-duplex voice model and can listen and speak at the same time. Many voice models use turn detection to respond. Full duplex removes that boundary, so a user can pause, interrupt, or add detail while GPT-Live is speaking.
GPT-Live 1 also supports client delegation. Client delegation lets you choose the background model independently from GPT-Live 1. A basic session runs only the voice model. When deeper work is needed, your application can handle delegation-created with any text model on AI Gateway while the conversation continues.
Install AI SDK 7, @ai-sdk/openai 4.0.67 or later, and a WebSocket client:
Simple example without delegation
This starts openai/gpt-live-1 without calling another model. Wait for session-started before sending audio.
Delegate work and keep talking
You can call a text model for GPT Live to delegate to, then return the result on the commentary channel for it to speak. This example uses openai/gpt-5.6-sol, but you can substitute any text model available on AI Gateway:
Your application controls delegated work and its permissions, confirmations, and cancellation. Delegated model requests are billed separately through AI Gateway; voice-session usage continues while they run. These snippets omit WebSocket connection, event parsing, transcript assembly, audio streaming, and shutdown. See the GPT-Live guide in the AI Gateway docs for connection setup, audio streaming, and complete examples. For all audio models on AI Gateway, go to the model list.
