Zoom has launched additional agentic skills across Zoom Workplace: Custom AI Companion add-on, Voice Recorder, Tasks, Custom Avatars, and more.

Jeff Smith, head of Product for Workplace AI, Meetings, and Spaces at Zoom, said: “Last month, we announced that AI Companion now includes a set of agentic skills so it can understand, plan, and get things done with minimal input from the user. We’re further delivering on that promise by launching Custom AI Companion, agentic AI, and many other features.
New features:
- Zoom Tasks: This service is designed to make task management across Zoom Workplace more convenient. Centralised tracking and seamless integration into Zoom Docs provide users with a curated to-do list that automatically generates recommended tasks and assigns them to the right owner based on meeting summaries. Users can also prompt it to surface tasks from Zoom Team Chat, Zoom Mail, Zoom Docs, and more, quickly converting action items into actionable tasks to accept or delegate to others.
- Voice Recorder: The AI Companion Voice Recorder claims to transcribe, summarise, and capture action items for in-person interactions.
- Meeting scheduling: Users can ask AI Companion to schedule meetings. It will find the most suitable times for all invitees by pulling data from across the platform and suggesting scheduling options for the user to confirm. AI Companion will then set up the Zoom meeting, add it to the participants’ calendars, and generate suggested meeting topics and agendas.
- Custom AI Companion: Tailors AI agents and skills with the Custom AI Companion add-on, built using the low-code, drag-and-drop Zoom AI Studio, to customise organisational needs easily and in a user-friendly manner.
“We continue to push the boundaries of innovation to bring our customers the very best AI-first solutions that drive productivity and collaboration,” Smith said.
