Zoom Communications, Inc. has unveiled Zoom Virtual Agent 3.0, the next evolution of its agentic automation platform. The new virtual agent features a revamped execution architecture and expanded AI capabilities designed to resolve customer issues end-to-end, seamlessly hand off to human agents, and help enterprises shift from transactional service interactions to more connected customer relationships.

Why it matters

These features are designed to improve reliability, oversight, and operational efficiency of automated customer service.
