Since August, Harley, the voice agent we built on @livekit, has run 10,000+ insurance onboarding calls. Average call time is down 63%, and quotes take two or three seconds on hold, not a day or two.

This fall powered by @livekit, with support from @AskVenice , @eastworlds_io and Reflex
Every LLM, STT, and TTS model in LiveKit Inference is zero data retention by default. No flag to set, no tier to upgrade, no dashboard toggle.
We did the verification work across every provider so you don't have to redo it every time you add a model.

The fastest LLM you can put in a voice agent right now is an open-weight model.
Gemma 4 31B on LiveKit Inference is only 192ms to first token, 354ms to a full spoken sentence, and cheap. $0.40 per 1M in ($0.20 cached) and $1.20 per 1M out.
Am I the only nerd that has been thinking the stop "square" on Claude is an un-rendered icon? It's been long enough that I'm sure that's just a design choice and not a bug😀

Laguna M.1 is now top 20 on @OpenRouter by weekly tokens served.
Please keep on cooking.

Love to see more open models coming out! Great work from Poolside

If you've ever wondered what Poolside was up to... They've been cooking!
They just released Laguna XS and M, their first ever public models, on Hugging Face:
- Two coder models: one is 225B params, of which 23B active, the other is 33B-3A.
- hybrid attention: global v. sliding window in a 3:1 ratio
- kv cache quantized in FP8
- SOTA results, on par with Qwen-3.5!
- apache 2.0 (so a real open-weights)
They also released pool, their CLI coding agent.
With this performance, Poolside just entered the big game.
Congrats, huge release!
Today we're launching our first public Poolside models: Laguna M.1 and Laguna XS.2, and we've built ❈Shimmer, an instant-on VM sandbox with Poolside Agent pre-installed so you can try them out.
Go play out our new models for free, and build something fun → shimmer.run

Today @poolsideai is releasing Laguna M.1 & Laguna XS.2, our latest generation models and first public models
We started Poolside because we believed that to build truly capable coding agents, you need to own the full stack: data, training, reinforcement learning, inference.
These models are the first result of that work, and we’re making them available to everyone
Laguna M.1 and XS.2 are out today. So proud of the work from @poolsideai end to end, a lot of passion and craft went into these.
One thing I’m especially excited about is getting real feedback from the broader community now that the work is public.
