I would like to know if is there any measuable metric that Zoom give to management team how much member participant in zoom call, like how often you talk, or AFK.
Just know if i need to game the number like talk something in the call.
I used to be a zoom admin for a very large college before and during the start of COVID. At that time I never recall seeing anything about participation metrics and whatnot. Other than someone recording the meeting and watching it back I don’t think there is anything they can see besides who joined and what/if they typed.
I will say the admins can see “private” dms to each other if they really want to. So while nobody else in the call can see what you’re typing to your buddy in the moment the admins can if they want to. So don’t type anything in those private chats unless you would hypothetically be ok with your boss seeing it.
It’s been a few years since I left that job though so it possible they have added more data logging for things like camera and mic “on” time.
Personally even now for my work as long as I connect to the meetings when I’m supposed to they never care if I turn on my webcam or unmute. I’ll answer the random question thrown my way, but otherwise I’m on my phone or doing actual work work while sorta half listening to whatever meeting.
Teams does record how much a member talked and displays a bar that shows that information.
I wouldn’t be surprised if zoom does something similar.

Have you considered that Microsoft is just being a dick? After decades of doing so, it’d be okay to assume this time too.
Zoom could also be a dick, but let’s give them the benefit of the doubt.
Zoom’s history of privacy violations renders them undeserving of that benefit, in my opinion; they’re both dicks.
So often, the thing that is easy to measure is seen as important. In this case, the amount said is easy to measure. The quality of what is said is not easy to measure, but more important.
If zoom is like teams, transcription can identify you. The transcript might give you up but someone has to analyze it.
Who has time for that?
