OpenAI's New WARP Extensions Cut WebRTC Latency to a Single RTT, Usually Under 100 ms
juberti · x · 2026-10-08
OpenAI updated its Live API/Realtime API documentation to show how to use the new WARP extensions for WebRTC, reducing connection latency to a single RTT — typically well under 100 ms.
Key points:
- WARP extensions optimize WebRTC connection setup for voice agents by reducing handshake round trips;
- Docs offer an llms.txt index, and appending .md to any page URL yields a Markdown version, handy for agent workflows;
- The docs also cover the full developer surface: Responses API, Agents API, Evals, fine-tuning, and more.
