AI-Powered Call Management Suite

“By embedding AI directly into the Ooma Office UCaaS platform, we're not just adding features — we're fundamentally transforming how teams connect, collaborate, and make decisions,” said Dennis Peng, senior vice president, product management at Ooma. “Ooma AI helps businesses automate routine tasks and deliver real-time insights, empowering organizations to move faster, work smarter, and focus on what truly drives value: meaningful human interaction.”

Ooma AI capabilities create a more automated, intelligent call workflow — helping businesses reduce manual effort, respond faster to customers, and turn everyday conversations into actionable insights.

AI Transcriptions — Converts call recordings into searchable text and concise summaries, with Ask AI to extract key details and insights from individual calls. Included with Ooma Office Pro Plus at no additional charge.

Availability and Future Plans

“By embedding additional AI capabilities into the Ooma Office platform, we're making advanced call handling and conversation intelligence easier for everyday businesses to adopt,” added Peng. “These features are designed to deliver practical productivity gains and better caller experiences, not additional complexity.
