# Overview

live-layer is a platform for building **voice-first AI agents** — agents that converse with your visitors, walk them through slide-based experiences, and embed anywhere with a snippet of code.

These docs serve two audiences:

**No-code builders:**

You can build a complete agent from the dashboard without writing code: design slides, configure prompts, connect a knowledge base, and publish. Start with the [Quickstart](/docs/introduction/quickstart).

**Developers:**

You can embed agents into any site three ways, in increasing order of power: a hosted URL, a script tag, or the NPM package. Start with [Develop overview](/docs/develop/overview).

## Three ways to ship an agent

Once an agent is published, you have three integration paths. Pick based on how much control you need:

1. **Hosted**

   The agent lives at `https://livelayer.app/a/your-slug`. Share the link, embed in an iframe, print as a QR code. **Zero code on your end.** [Learn more →](/docs/develop/hosted/overview)

2. **Script tag**

   One line of HTML. The widget self-installs as a floating bubble or inline embed. **Works on any site, any CMS.** [Learn more →](/docs/develop/script-tag/overview)

3. **NPM package**

   `@livelayer/react` and `@livelayer/sdk`. **The full power of live-layer** — page awareness, form filling, custom UIs, controlled sessions. [Learn more →](/docs/develop/npm/overview)
