Overview

Loom is an async video messaging platform that adds a screen and camera recording layer to business communication, used for walkthroughs, feedback, project updates, and explanations where video conveys context that text can't. Its AI features transform the recording into structured, searchable content: AI Summaries generate a text overview of the recording within seconds of it completing, enabling viewers to skim the key points before deciding to watch. Auto Chapters divide longer recordings into labeled sections viewers can jump to directly, eliminating the need to scrub through unstructured video. The Transcript is generated automatically for every recording and is fully searchable across your Loom library, enabling retrieval of specific recordings by what was said rather than what they were titled.

Filler word reduction silently removes verbal hesitations from recordings without re-editing. Engagement data tracks view count, viewer completion rate, and where viewers dropped off, providing feedback on which content holds attention. The free tier allows up to 25 videos with a 5-minute limit per recording. Business plans start at $12.50/month per user for unlimited recordings, extended duration, and advanced analytics.

Loom is widely used in engineering, product, customer success, and sales teams where the combination of visual demonstration and async delivery makes it faster than writing and more scalable than scheduling live calls.
