# Getting Started

* [Deepgram API Playground: try the Voice Agent API interactively](https://playground.deepgram.com/?endpoint=agent)

Deepgram's Voice Agent API handles the full speech pipeline (listening, thinking, and speaking) so you can focus on what your agent does, not how it hears or talks.

* [Build a Voice Agent](/docs/build-a-voice-agent): step-by-step guide to creating your first voice agent with Python, JavaScript, C#, or Go.
* [Configure Your Agent](/docs/configure-voice-agent): speech-to-text models, LLM providers, TTS voices, endpointing, and audio formats.
* [Function Calling](/docs/voice-agents-function-calling): let your agent call external APIs and tools mid-conversation.
* [Multi-Agent Architecture](/docs/multi-agent-architecture): orchestrate multiple specialized agents that hand off based on context, intent, or domain.
