Key Benefit: Transform meeting transcripts into polished, formatted content in seconds. Perfect for follow-up emails, meeting recaps, proposal sections, and discovery call summaries.

Prerequisites: Installing Zoom Integration

Before you can use AI-powered smart fields with Zoom transcripts, you need to set up the Zoom integration in HubSpot:

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to generate an AI summary?

AI summary generation typically takes just a few seconds. The time may vary based on transcript length and system load, but most summaries are generated within 5-10 seconds.

Can I use transcripts from meetings I didn't attend?

If you have access to the HubSpot record and the associated Zoom transcript, you can generate AI summaries. Access permissions are controlled by your HubSpot and Zoom settings.

Does the AI summary include speaker identification?

The level of detail in AI summaries depends on the transcript quality and AI processing. Summaries typically focus on content and key points rather than attributing every statement to specific speakers.

Can I regenerate a different summary from the same transcript?

Yes. You can create multiple projects from the same template and select the same transcript each time. AI may generate slightly different summaries with each generation.

Are AI summaries saved for future use?

Once generated and inserted into a project, the AI summary becomes part of that project and can be edited like any other text. The summary is not automatically saved separately for reuse in other projects.

What languages are supported?

AI summary capabilities depend on the languages supported by HubSpot's Zoom integration and AI services. Check with your administrator about language support for your account.
