Zoom's Next Act: From Video Company to AI Data Platform
At Zoomtopia 2026, Zoom showcased its second act: centered on the new Unified Context Layer, it turns conversation data from meetings, phone, chat, and customer service into an AI data platform, while communication tools such as video recede into collection entry points. This layer integrates general model knowledge, document knowledge from Salesforce/ServiceNow/Workday, and real-time conversation context, and builds near-real-time updated graphs of people, topics, and decisions. Zoom also provides 15 MCP servers, Search and Ask APIs, and connects to Claude, Codex, and Copilot.
