### Answer
End-to-end latency on the Retell dashboard measures the total time from when the user stops speaking until the AI agent begins responding [(1) ](
) . This metric includes processing time, network delays, and model inference time .
You can monitor end-to-end latency for individual calls in the "Call History" section of the dashboard . The dashboard displays key latency metrics including :
- **P90 (90th Percentile) **: 90% of calls have latency below this value
- **Median (50th Percentile) **: Half of the calls have latency less than this value
- **Min**: The fastest response time achieved in any call
Note that end-to-end latency does not account for network trip time from the Retell server to the user's frontend .
You can also retrieve detailed latency breakdowns programmatically using the Get Call API after a call ends . The response includes a
latency
object with per-component metrics like ASR (transcription) , LLM, TTS, and other processing stages .
