Playground
Agent Playground is a real-time environment to validate connectivity before running larger simulated evaluations.
What it does
From one place, you can:
- Start live tests
- Monitor call/test status
- Inspect transcripts and recordings
- Compare test-agent and voice-agent behavior
Test modes
Voice AI Agent mode
Uses external provider configuration and runs a live web call against your provider-side agent.
Supported providers commonly include Retell, Vapi, and ElevenLabs.
Typical flow:
- Create a web call with the selected agent.
- Connect through provider session/client.
- Store call recording metadata.
- Poll provider call details (status, transcript, audio).
- Create evaluator result and run metrics.
Test Agent mode
Uses the internal EfficientAI voice path with your configured voice bundle. This is useful for controlled comparisons of STT, LLM, and TTS choices.
