The office software market has been widened a little further with the official release of Zoom's AI-powered word processor, Zoom Docs.
Fully unveiled in March of this year, Zoom Docs is powered by the company's Zoom AI Companion, allowing users — specifically, businesses — to work more collaboratively within Zoom's video conference ecosystem. Thus, with the AI Companion at its heart, Zoom Docs can do things like generate meeting summaries or create reports or action lists.
Participants can create, share, and co-edit documents in real time without leaving the meeting window during meetings. This feature extends to mobile attendees, who can view and collaborate on documents without needing to sign in. Additionally, users can generate editable and shareable documents that include customizable meeting information, simplifying the dissemination of relevant details.
Additionally, permission sharing is streamlined with bulk settings — allowing temporary access for meeting attendees to collaborate during sessions.
The best part, as mentioned above, is that since Zoom Docs exist within the company's Workplace ecosystem, documents can be shared seamlessly across Zoom Team Chat, Zoom Mail, or directly in Zoom Meetings, for a more fluid experience.
At the time of this writing, Zoom Docs is available right now and is included with all paid Zoom Workplace plans.
