Can your meeting AI stay inside your environment? Zoom says AI On-Prem can run through Zoom Node on customer infrastructure or private cloud for paid Zoom Workplace plans. That makes the useful question less about the model and more about where the data lives when you are dealing with sensitive calls, internal training, or client material. For teams with tighter rules, that deployment choice can matter as much as the feature list. Is your bigger need private deployment or better summaries? Comment with one example.
