Today Zoom Video Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZM) announced that Zoom AI Companion, the company’s generative AI assistant, has reached a milestone less than two months after its launch, with more than 125,000 accounts using AI Companion, generating more than one million meeting summaries. Zoom also announced new capabilities, additional language support, and further enhancements to existing capabilities for AI Companion.

“Providing the best value to our customers across our platform is core to our mission, which is why we made AI Companion available at no additional cost,1 and we continue to introduce new AI capabilities at Zoom speed, so more of our customers can get the most out of Zoom’s AI innovations,” said Smita Hashim, chief product officer at Zoom. “Our unique federated approach allows us to dynamically utilize different models, helping to reduce AI overhead costs and provide broad access to generative AI.”

New Zoom AI Companion capabilities

Beginning today, AI Companion users will be able to use the in-meeting questions capability in new languages, as well as receive short meeting summary overviews at the beginning of full meeting summaries.

  • Users can now use AI Companion’s in-meeting questions capability in seven new languages (preview).
  • Based on feedback from users, the meeting summaries capability now includes an overview at the top of the summary in email summaries, providing users with a shorter version of the meeting summary in addition to the full meeting summary. Meeting summary overviews will be available in summaries delivered via continuous meeting chat in November.

AI Companion capabilities available in November

Zoom will continue to improve AI Companion, with the following new capabilities planned to be available in November:

  • Both AI Companion meeting summary and in-meeting questions capabilities will support a total of 32 new languages, in preview.
  • AI Companion will provide users with meeting coach capabilities, beginning with speech analytics in Smart Recordings. Speech analytics will include the meeting host’s talk-listen ratio, talk speed, and speech fillers so that hosts can glean valuable insights into how they engage with meeting participants during Zoom Meetings.

AI Companion will be available in Zoom Events, with chat compose capabilities for lobby chats and assistance with composing emails for registration, marketing, and ticketing communications.

  • Zoom will introduce an optional control for customers to specify that AI Companion capabilities for their organization only use the Zoom large language model.
