help Zoom AI Companion FAQ
Can Zoom AI Companion summarize a meeting without recording video?
Yes, Meeting Summary can use the meeting's audio transcript without creating a conventional cloud video recording. The host or administrator must enable the feature, and participants receive an in-meeting notice when it is active.
Is Zoom AI Companion included with a free Zoom account?
Zoom now offers limited AI Companion use with its Basic tier, including caps on hosted meetings and AI queries. Broader use is included with eligible paid Zoom Workplace plans or sold through separate AI Companion offerings.
Can Zoom AI Companion answer questions about a meeting I joined late?
The in-meeting Questions feature can summarize what has happened so far or identify discussed topics, subject to the host's settings. Its response is generated from the meeting transcript, so names and technical terminology can still be misheard.
How does Zoom AI Companion differ from Otter or Fathom?
AI Companion is integrated into Zoom Meetings, Team Chat, Docs, and other Zoom Workplace surfaces, reducing the need for a separate meeting bot. Otter and Fathom remain distinct products and may fit teams that want a platform-independent archive or a different sales-meeting workflow.
