Let’s check out Zoom IQ, what it is, and what it offers.

Businesses may use Zoom IQ to increase their output, freeing up more time for innovation and better teamwork.
According to Zoom’s chief product officer, Smita Hashim, “With the introduction of these new capabilities in Zoom IQ, an incredible generative AI assistant, teams can further enhance their productivity for everyday tasks, freeing up more time for creative work and expanding collaboration.” Zoom’s federated approach to artificial intelligence allows the company to provide its clients and users with cutting-edge features by leveraging Zoom’s and its partners’ models.
Zoom uses a federated approach to AI, incorporating not just its large language model but also those of other leading AI providers like OpenAI and Anthropic and its customers. Zoom can now meet the varying demands of its clientele and provide excellent value as a result of this adaptability.
What Does Zoom IQ Offer To Its Customers?
In March of 2023, Zoom Video Communications released its artificial intelligence. The first round of features in specific plans became life for free trials on June 5, 2023.
With this, you will get the following:
1. Meeting Summary
When enabled, Zoom’s new meeting summary feature will automatically summarize each meeting without the need to record it. Zoom’s large language model is put to work. The summary is then forwarded to the host through email and Zoom Team Chat. If you want to boost productivity and teamwork, send it to anybody who couldn’t make it.

2. Email Compose
Emails may be automatically drafted using generative AI based on the context of your previous Zoom Meetings, Zoom Phone conversations, and email threads. Zoom IQ for sales already has this functionality, which aids sales representatives in quickly following up with customers depending on the context of the earlier interaction. The ability to write emails from scratch will go out to all users in the near future.
3. Meeting Queries
In the past, a latecomer to a Zoom meeting might cause disruption and be a source of confusion. Users may quietly submit an inquiry through the in-meeting chat and receive a summary of what they missed, generated by generative AI so that they can catch up fast without interfering with the meeting flow. It is expected that the meeting inquiries function will roll out to all users in the near future.
4. Team Chat Compose
The Zoom Team chat’s compose function, driven by generative AI, is available to all users. It uses OpenAI’s technology to predict user intent and create draft messages responding to ongoing conversations. It may be used to alter the message’s tone and length and get input on what should be written. Extremely potent, generative AI can save time and effort to reply to or explain complex concepts to your mates.
