Ask AI about this page

Short answer

Can my AI moderate my live meetings?

Yes. Your AI uses Daily.co tools to see who is in the room, change what users can do, or kick people out. You get a direct line of control over the session through your chat interface.

Meeting control outcomes

What your AI manages

The specific ways your agent interacts with the live session.

PRESENCE

Live room visibility

The AI checks who is currently connected. You get an instant list of active users.

PERMISSIONS

User role updates

The AI adjusts what participants can do. You can grant or revoke specific abilities on the fly.

ENFORCEMENT

Immediate removals

The AI removes specific users from the session. This stops disruptions without you needing to click through menus.

HUMAN

Manual oversight

The AI handles the technical execution, but you decide when a user needs to be removed or restricted.

The workflow
