Daily Client SDK for Python

The Daily client SDK for Python allows you to build video and audio calling into your native desktop and server applications.

This SDK is well suited to build AI applications on the server side as it can be easily integrated with well-known Python libraries such as OpenAI, Deepgram, YOLOv5, PyTorch, OpenCV and much more.

The SDK's core features include:

• Joining a Daily meeting as a participant
• As a meeting participant, configuring inputs, publishing, and subscription settings
• Receiving video frames from other participants
• Receiving raw audio from all participants in the meeting
• Sending video into a meeting
• Sending raw audio into a meeting

This functionality can be applied to several AI use cases, including:

• Performing object or face detection on the server side
• Processing audio from a Speech-To-Text platform into a meeting
• Sending audio from a Text-To-Speech platform into a meeting
• Sending video and audio tracks to a content moderation platform
• Using generative AI to inject video content into a meeting
