Zoom AI Companion

The AI Companion is designed to work across the Zoom ecosystem, including Meetings, Team Chat, Mail, and Whiteboard.

• Meeting Summaries & Next Steps: Automatically creates a summary of a meeting you hosted, so you don't have to take manual notes. It also identifies action items for attendees.
• Smart Recordings: If you record a meeting to the cloud, the AI can automatically create chapters for easy navigation, highlight the most important parts, and generate a transcript.
• In-Meeting Questions: You can ask the AI Companion questions during a meeting to catch up on what you missed or clarify a point without interrupting the speaker. For example, you could ask, "What was the decision on the Q4 budget?"
• AI-Powered Writing: The companion can help you draft professional messages in Team Chat and compose well-written emails in Zoom Mail, ensuring the tone and length are appropriate.
• Whiteboard Content Generation: If you're brainstorming, you can give the AI a prompt and it will generate ideas and organize them on a Zoom Whiteboard.

Using these features provides some significant advantages:

• Save Time & Boost Productivity: Automating tasks like note-taking and summarizing frees you up to focus on the actual conversation. You can get through your work faster and with less manual effort.

• Improve Collaboration: By clearly identifying action items and summarizing decisions, it ensures everyone on the team is on the same page, reducing misunderstandings.

• Never Miss Key Information: If you miss a meeting or join late, you can quickly get up to speed with the summary or by asking the AI direct questions. This is a game-changer for people in back-to-back meetings.

• Enhance Focus: Knowing that the AI is capturing the key details allows you to be more present and engaged in the discussion instead of worrying about taking perfect notes.

So, is the Zoom AI Companion "tight" for you? Here’s a simple way to decide.

This is a great fit for you if:

• You are on a paid Zoom plan (like Pro, Business, or Enterprise).

• You frequently attend meetings where important decisions are made or complex topics are discussed.

• You often have to take notes, assign action items, or summarize meetings for others.

• You manage a team and need to ensure everyone is aligned on tasks and deadlines.

• You sometimes miss meetings and need an efficient way to catch up.

This might not be for you if:

• You use a free Zoom account.

• You primarily use Zoom for quick, informal chats with friends or family where note-taking and summaries aren't necessary.

In short, for any professional, student, or team that relies on Zoom for collaboration, the AI Companion is an extremely powerful and valuable tool, especially since it comes at no extra cost for paid users.
