Pika Labs now lets you video call your AI agent

Pika Labs released Pika Skills, an open-source collection of modules that extend AI coding agents with new capabilities. The first skill is pikastream-video-meeting, and it does something that would have sounded absurd two years ago: it lets you get on a Google Meet call with your own AI agent.

The agent shows up as a real-time avatar, talks back, remembers context from your workspace, and can execute tasks while the call is happening. It runs on PikaStream 1.0 and integrates with Claude Code, OpenClaw, and Hermes.

The full feature set:

• Real-time avatar: The agent joins with a generated or custom avatar image
• Voice cloning: Clone a voice from a short audio recording for use during the call
• Context-aware conversation: The bot pulls in workspace context, recent activity, and known contacts before joining
• Task execution: The agent can perform actions like booking meetings mid-call
• Post-meeting notes: Automatically retrieved and shared after the call ends

Setup requires a Pika Developer Key, Python 3.10+, and pointing your agent at the skill folder. It runs at $0.50 per minute via the Pika Developer API.

People already talk to their agents through speech-to-text tools. So, you can’t really say this tool is solving that problem. What this adds is a face. A real-time animated avatar sitting across from you on a call, giving your agent something to look at while you talk to it. Whether you generate a professional headshot or something more personal is up to you.

Companies are building everything they can think of amid the current agent craze, and Pika Labs is no exception. The skill is in beta, with some visible glitches in the demo. For now it supports Google Meet, with no word on other platforms.
