"Zoom on Wednesday launched new products at its Zoomtopia conference, including an upgraded AI companion that can work across meeting apps, as well as the ability to add your own notes, AI-powered meeting scheduling, and AI avatars that resemble users. With these features, the company aims to compete with verticalized meeting startups and productivity suites. The company has long offered an AI bot that can record and transcribe Zoom meetings."
"The company is taking a page out of Granola's book to let users jot down their own notes during meetings, then have AI expand and structure them later. Zoom is also adding cross-platform search so users can retrieve information from across Google and Microsoft's platforms. New calendar-related features are also on the way. Through its AI Companion, the company will allow users to find time slots that work for all attendees."
Zoom upgraded its AI Companion to operate across multiple meeting apps, including Google Meet and Microsoft Teams, and to take notes during in-person meetings. The AI can expand and structure user-written notes, provide cross-platform search across Google and Microsoft platforms, and offer AI-powered meeting scheduling that finds mutually available time slots. A "free up my time" request can suggest meetings to skip. Zoom will offer proactive meeting recommendations, suggested tasks and agenda items, and a group AI assistant. Photorealistic avatars will mime users' actions for camera-off moments, though deepfake misuse creates security concerns.
