Loom AI
Say it once on video, reach everyone asynchronously
Expert's Tip
"Loom AI's async video format is genuinely superior to long email threads for complex walkthroughs. But Atlassian's 2026 free-tier rollback, which auto-upgraded free users to paid seats, destroyed trust for budget-conscious teams."
What is Loom AI?
Loom is the dominant async video messaging tool — you record your screen with or without a webcam, stop, and instantly get a shareable link. Viewers can comment at specific timestamps, react with emojis, and read AI-generated summaries without watching the full video.
Pricing: The Starter plan is free with 25 total videos and a 5-minute recording cap. Business ($15/user/month) removes limits. Business + AI ($20/user/month) adds filler word removal, silence trimming, auto-generated titles, summaries, and chapters.
A critical warning for 2026: Atlassian (which acquired Loom) changed the free tier — accounts created after February 2026 have no free tier at all, and existing teams saw all previously free users auto-upgraded to paid seats. If you're evaluating Loom for team use, budget for the paid plan from day one.
