Abstract
Back-to-back Web Real-Time Communication (WebRTC) virtual agents, and related methods, systems, and computer-readable media are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a method for providing back-to-back virtual WebRTC agents comprises receiving, by a WebRTC server executing on a computing device, a WebRTC offer/answer exchange between first and second WebRTC clients. The method further comprises instantiating one or more virtual WebRTC agents. The method also comprises establishing a first WebRTC interactive flow between the first WebRTC client and one of the one or more virtual WebRTC agents, and a second WebRTC interactive flow between the second WebRTC client and one of the one or more virtual WebRTC agents. The method additionally comprises directing a content of the first WebRTC interactive flow to the second WebRTC interactive flow, and a content of the second WebRTC interactive flow to the first WebRTC interactive flow, via the one or more virtual WebRTC agents.
