Show colleagues how much you care by sending an AI avatar to your Google Meet call
Use cases described on MeetTwins' website include status update meetings, students who have to juggle work with class, and even sales and customer teams who need to handle routine check-in calls with clients, though we don't advise that for businesses who want their customers to feel like they care about them. REG AD googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('labrador/thereg/article/desktop/b'); }); Prepping MeetTwins for a call involves telling it what questions to answer, providing documents or files participants may request, and supplying other context it may need. Certain topics can be designated off limits for the discussion as well.
