You know what’s better than a car podcast interviewing one LiveKit founder? Interviewing both of them. 😄🚗🎙️
Today I’m excited to drop the newest episode of Skywatch — Bluejay (YC X25)'s podcast taking a bird’s-eye view on conversational AI, filmed inside my car while driving around SF.
This time, I had both LiveKit co-founders, Russ d'Sa and David Zhao, and also my own co-founder Faraz Siddiqi hop in and unpack what it actually takes to build and scale real-time infrastructure powering modern voice and agentic systems.
We went deep on things you've never heard publicly:
🔹 Never-told stories from early LiveKit deployments and the real scaling challenges behind production voice + real-time AI
🔹 The founders’ journeys — from Y Combinator startups to building LiveKit
🔹 Where LiveKit is headed — and what a new era of real-time computing means for AI
If you’re building in voice, real-time infra, or agentic systems — you’ll love this one.
