Yes, LiveKit can be used for text-based interactions only, without audio or video. To implement this, you can configure the system to enable text input and disable audio output. For example, you can set

audio_enabled=False

in the

RoomOutputOptions

and

text_enabled=True

in the

RoomInputOptions

. This ensures that only text messages are exchanged. Whether this is recommended depends on your specific use case. If your application primarily requires text communication, this setup can be efficient and straightforward. However, if you anticipate needing audio or video in the future, you might want to consider a more flexible configuration. Sources: Text and transcriptions | LiveKit Docs | Tree View: | dse-workbench
