Users can leverage Zoom Docs to create collaborative documents, build company wikis for better information sharing, and use data tables to organize information and bring teams together. The platform allows for easy integration of meeting summaries and transcripts, making it simple to transform conversations into well-organized, actionable documents. Zoom Docs also offers features like tagging colleagues, adding comments, and sharing documents through Team Chat or during Zoom Meetings.
To create a new doc, users can start with a blank document, use the “My meetings” view to pull in AI Companion meeting summaries or transcripts, create a doc within a meeting, start with a template, or import an existing file. The platform offers various customization options, including different modules or blocks, media insertions, and layout organizations like columns and data tables.
Zoom Docs is included with Zoom Workplace Pro, Business, Business Plus, Education, and Enterprise plans, offering unlimited docs using AI Companion at no additional cost.
