Personalization

Personalizes based on meeting history, decisions, and commitments — powered by Zoom's native meeting graph and memory.

Personalizes by role, team, location, and behavioral signals via knowledge graph pulled from across applications.

Results are tailored to what matters most to each person based on their actual work context, not just their job title.

Native conversation data

Meetings, chat, phone, recordings, summaries, My Notes — all indexed natively. This is also combined with enterprise data from connected apps.

Requires separate integrations for meeting/chat data

Workflow automation

Agentic workflows triggered from events, schedules, or actions — from simple tasks to complex multi-step pipelines.

Requires a separate interface to initiate workflows; no native conversation triggers or deliverable generation.

Routine work happens automatically based on what's discussed or decided, eliminating manual follow-up and reducing busywork.

In-context actions

Trigger workflows, update CRM records, create Jira tickets, send follow-up emails, before, during and after meetings — all without leaving Zoom.

Salesforce Opportunity updates available via natural language in Glean Assistant, but must be done in Glean's web portal.

Your team stays focused and productive by taking action on information immediately, without switching between multiple apps and losing context.

Production-ready outputs

Generate docs, spreadsheets, slide decks, and data tables directly from conversations and data in Zoom's native application.

Draft emails, create docs and spreadsheets, and send messages across Google Workspace and Microsoft 365; no native productivity suite.

Turn discussions into finished work products instantly — no copying, pasting, or reformatting across different tools.

Embedded execution

Actions happen inside meetings, chat, and the Zoom client — no app switching. Slack, Google, and Teams integrations available.

Separate portal/interface; Slack, Teams, and Zoom integrations available

Everything happens in your natural workflow, so your team doesn't have to remember to check another app or portal.

Meeting-native AI

Native AI summaries, action items, and follow-ups generated from live meeting context — unique to Zoom (video, speaker attribution, meeting chat data and context). Backed by transcripts and added granular controls. Third-party meeting transcripts and context captured with My Notes.

Meeting capture, transcription, and summaries

Meeting intelligence is built-in and automatic, capturing decisions and action items without requiring participants to take notes or remember details.

Unified platform

Built into Zoom Workplace — meetings, chat, phone, and productivity suite in one platform.

Standalone platform requiring separate deployment and user adoption

One platform for all work means fewer tools to manage, lower IT impact, and a simpler experience for your team.

User experience

No new tool to learn — search and actions embedded where users already work

Separate interface; requires user training and adoption of new portal

Adoption is fast because there's no new tools to learn — AI capabilities appear right where your team already works every day.

Productivity suite

Native AI Productivity Suite with Canvas, Slides, Sheets, and Paper with ZoomMate to turn conversations into finished deliverables with the ability to collaborate with peers in real-time.

Basic docs, spreadsheets and slide generation and editing (admin- enabled deck template required).

Create and collaborate on work products without leaving your workspace, accelerating the path from discussion to deliverable.

Collaboration context

Understands your full workday — meetings, chats, docs, and relationships across the platform.

Indexes documents and content but lacks real-time collaboration signals
