## Overview

Connectors bridge LiveKit rooms with external voice communication platforms, enabling seamless integration between LiveKit and services like WhatsApp Business and Twilio. Each connector handles bidirectional audio streaming, media processing, mixing, and codec translations required for the specific platform.

All connector operations use LiveKit Server SDKs, providing a consistent API for managing calls across different platforms.

## Available connectors

| Connector | Description | Use cases |
| **WhatsApp** | Connect WhatsApp voice calls to LiveKit rooms. | Customer support with AI voice agents, outbound marketing campaigns, and multi-channel communication using voice and text. |
