Does Zoom's AI Companion record the meeting?
Not by itself. Zoom AI Companion’s meeting summary creates a text recap, not an audio or video recording — recording is a separate setting. It’s also a host-enabled Zoom feature that notifies participants and, since 2026, asks them to accept an AI disclaimer. Reline instead records locally on your own device, on any platform.
We're aligned on the rollout date — what's the gating risk on the auth flow?
The refresh-token edge case. Once that's covered we can ship to the pilot cohort.
Send me the failure modes before EOD and I'll bake them into the test matrix.
Will do — pairing with the platform team tomorrow morning to align on the schema...

The details
- AI Companion is built into Zoom and controlled by the host or admin — it only works in Zoom, and participants are prompted to consent before it’s active.
- Its meeting summary is a text summary; to get an actual recording you must turn on Zoom cloud recording separately, which has its own notifications.
- Reline is different: it captures your mic and the meeting’s system audio locally on Mac, Windows, or Linux (beta), so you own the recording and it works on Zoom, Meet, Teams, Webex, or in person, with no host setting required.
- You still get a transcript with speaker separation and an AI summary next to the kept recording; capture is local, transcription and AI run securely in the cloud.
