Online Meetings

Scheduling a meeting

Easy to schedule: Use your calendar and add meet@chime.aws to your meeting invite. Adding meet@chime.aws will enable Chime to call you so you can ensure your meetings start on time.

Personalized meeting links: Create and use personalized meeting URLs for your online meetings.

Joining a meeting

Simplified join experience: Join with a simple tap, and avoid the need for lengthy passcodes, or choose “Running Late” to let everyone know you're running behind schedule.

Optimized meeting experience: Amazon Chime automatically selects where to host each meeting based on attendee proximity and AWS network telemetry. This enables an optimized meeting experience for all meeting participants, whether co-located or distributed globally.

Amazon Chime call me: With Amazon Chime call me, you simply enter your phone number in the web or mobile application and answer the incoming call to join a meeting.

Dial-in: Amazon Chime offers dial-in numbers in over 80 countries and low per minute rates. For more information on Dial-in rates, please visit the Dial-in rates page.

Participating in a meeting

Screen share: You can share your screen or present information, without requesting permission. 

Visual roster: The visual roster lets you see who has joined or declined the meeting, who is running late, who is currently speaking, and lets you see where background noise is coming from so you can mute that line.

Video Tiles: You can enable video with one click to interact with your meeting attendees visually. Amazon Chime supports picture-in-picture for 1:1 meetings, featured video, and highlights the video of attendees who are speaking.

Record your meetings: Amazon Chime allows you to record your meetings so that you can share important meetings with colleagues and replay as needed.

Video Conferencing

Video conferencing: You can use high-quality wideband audio and high-definition video conferencing for up to 25 people on your desktop or mobile devices.

Conference room video systems: Amazon Chime supports most Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and H.323 video conferencing systems, and meeting participants can join meetings by simply entering the meeting ID into the device console.

Team Collaboration

Chat: You can use Amazon Chime to chat with colleagues directly, in a group, or in a chat room. You can share attachments up to 50 megabytes, search contacts, conversations, and chat rooms, and read conversations across all devices.

Chat rooms: Chat Rooms can be created to enable multiple users to collaborate on projects, share files with colleagues, and use @mentions to direct messages to specific participants. There is no limit to the number of users that can be invited to a chat room and individual users can join as many chat rooms as needed.

1:1 voice and video calls: You can make instant person-to-person voice and video calls (VoIP) letting you quickly escalate from messaging to voice or video chat as needed. With call history your incoming, outgoing, and missed calls are listed making it easy to return a call, send a message, or add a new contact.

Smart Presence: Amazon Chime uses smart presence to indicate your status, where green means you’re available, and red means you’re busy. You can manually set your presence to indicate that you’re not available, or hide your presence status entirely. You can also create a short custom status message to convey more detail on your status.

Start Meetings from Slack: The Amazon Chime Meetings App for Slack enables Slack users to start and join meetings directly from their Slack workspace. Users can get access to the advanced meeting features of Amazon Chime from the existing Slack application they are using for workplace collaboration.

Incoming Web Hooks: Developers can configure their applications to use incoming webhooks to post messages into Amazon Chime chat rooms.

Chat Bots: Use custom chat bots in your chat rooms. Enable your users to interact directly with chat bots to provide access to corporate applications and information, and to automate common tasks.

Business Calling

Single Application: You can place and receive phone calls and send and receive text messages directly from the Amazon Chime application.

Receive Phone Calls: Calls to your phone number ring will ring the Amazon Chime app on all of your devices -- across desktop, mobile, or web. Just answer on one device and the others will stop ringing.

Voicemail: When you are unable to answer an incoming call, Amazon Chime voicemail will answer it for you. Voicemails are captured and can be accessed directly in the Amazon Chime application.

Place Phone Calls: Make calls to over 100 countries around the world from any of the applications using a keypad, call history, or any contacts with a phone number saved in your Amazon Chime applications.

Switch Between Devices: From the Amazon Chime application, you can switch active calls between mobile and desktop devices without interrupting your conversation.

Text Messaging: Send and receive text and picture messages with more than 100 countries. Text messages have the same look and feel as a Amazon Chime chat.
