Elon Musk’s company, X, is expanding its scope beyond job listings and payments to venture into the realm of video conferencing tools, directly competing with the likes of Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams.
Recent internal testing of X’s new tool received positive feedback from employees, with plans to enhance features like speaker pinning and improved notifications for participant status.
Elon Musk himself acknowledged the progress with a fire emoji response on social media amid the shift in X’s communication strategy under his leadership.
Initial reports suggest that X’s upcoming video conferencing tool will offer convenient options for creating meetings through the iOS app, including instant and scheduled sessions, similar to its competitors.
Moreover, potential features like unique meeting codes and seamless integration with other X services are being hinted at by industry researchers.
As X prepares to integrate video conferencing into its existing lineup, there are considerations for user privacy and security that must be addressed before the official launch.
