Meeting summaries, action items, smart chapters, and real-time Q&A — built into every Zoom call.
Zoom AI Companion is the AI assistant built directly into Zoom Workplace. It summarizes meetings, extracts action items, generates smart chapters for recordings, answers real-time questions during calls, and drafts follow-up messages. In 2026, Zoom added AI Companion 2.0 with agentic capabilities — it can now schedule follow-ups, create docs from meeting notes, and route action items to the right people automatically.
Who it's for: Anyone who spends more than 2 hours/day in Zoom meetings. Especially valuable for managers, project leads, and customer-facing teams who need to track decisions and action items without taking notes.
Get a structured summary with key topics, decisions, and action items seconds after the meeting ends. Shareable with attendees and absentees.
Type a question like "What did Sarah say about the budget?" and get an answer from the live transcript. Works even if you joined late.
Long recordings get split into topic-based chapters with timestamps. Skip to the part that matters instead of scrubbing through 60 minutes.
AI Companion 2.0 can draft emails, create tasks in project management tools, and schedule follow-up meetings based on what was discussed.
If your company already uses Zoom, AI Companion is a no-brainer — it's included in the price. The meeting summaries alone save 30+ minutes per meeting in note-taking and follow-up. It won't replace a dedicated tool like Otter.ai or Fireflies for transcription-heavy workflows, but for the average knowledge worker, it's the best meeting AI that requires zero setup.
