Original Abstract Submitted

Implementations relate to providing information items for display during a communication session. In some implementations, a computer-implemented method includes receiving, during a communication session between a first computing device and a second computing device, first media content from the communication session. The method further includes determining a first information item for display in the communication session based at least in part on the first media content. The method further includes sending a first command to at least one of the first computing device and the second computing device to display the first information item.
