A comprehensive analysis of how leading video conferencing brands are perceived and recommended by Large Language Models and AI search engines.

In 2026, the video conferencing landscape has shifted from a battle of bandwidth to a battle of 'AI-native integration.' Our analysis indicates that visibility within AI recommendation engines is now the primary driver for mid-market and enterprise procurement. Microsoft Teams and Zoom maintain a dominant share of voice, but niche players like Butter and Around are capturing significant visibility in 'creative' and 'asynchronous' query clusters. The report highlights a 34% increase in user queries specifically asking for 'AI-automated meeting synthesis' capabilities, where Google Meet and Teams currently lead.

Key findings in the source

Generated claims, including numeric figures. No underlying measurements are attached.

  • Microsoft Teams holds a 94% visibility rate for 'enterprise-grade' queries due to deep integration with the Microsoft 365 ecosystem.
  • Perplexity AI shows the highest variance in brand recommendations, frequently citing GitHub discussions and Reddit for 'developer-centric' meeting tools like Jitsi.
  • Zoom's visibility has pivoted successfully from 'video quality' to 'AI Companion' utility, maintaining an 89% sentiment score across LLMs.
  • Google Meet dominates 72% of 'low-friction' and 'browser-based' recommendation slots within the Gemini platform.
  • 42% of LLM responses now prioritize 'privacy and data sovereignty' as a top-three evaluation criterion for video software.
