| description | Build, configure, and deploy conversational video agents using the Trugen AI platform API. Use this skill when the user wants to create AI video avatars, manage knowledge bases, set up webhooks/callbacks, embed agents into websites, integrate with LiveKit, configure tools or MCPs, set up multilingual agents, or bring their own LLM to Trugen AI. |
Trugen AI
Build real-time conversational video agents — AI-powered avatars that see, hear, speak, and reason with users in under 1 second of latency.
