Zoom has added a document creation tool that uses generative AI (genAI) to help create and manage information related to meetings.
First announced last year, Zoom Docs is now generally available within Workplace, Zoom’s an all-in-one collaboration app, the company said in a blog post Monday.
Docs is pitched as a word processor that can be used create and share information related to meetings, though it supports different content types, such as wikis, whiteboards, and project tracking tables.
Docs can be pulled up and edited directly from within a Zoom video meeting, with real-time co-editing for up to 100 colleagues; it also includes collaboration features such as @mentions and comments within documents.
A key part of Zoom Docs is the integration with Zoom’s AI Companion. The genAI assistant can be used to create text from scratch, such as drafting an agenda prior to a meeting.
After a video meeting has taken place, the AI Companion can then turn the conversation transcript into a summary document for sharing and editing with coworkers. Available templates allow documents to be crafted in a certain format, such as a basic summary of key points and next steps, or a “brainstorm” document that highlights ideas proposed during the meeting.
Zoom Docs is a genAI-focused tool that’s now included in Zoom Workplace to bolster collaboration and productivity.

As with other AI assistants, Zoom’s AI Companion can also be used to revise and enhance text; check for grammatical and spelling errors; or change tone and style.
Zoom Docs is available at no extra cost to paid Zoom Workplace customers. Those on the free version can create up to 10 shared documents and unlimited personal documents, but won’t have access to Zoom’s AI Companion.
