What is Loom?
Loom records your screen and camera so you can explain work in a short video instead of a meeting. The free Starter plan allows 25 videos per person, screen recordings of up to 5 minutes and video quality up to 720p.
Business removes those limits. Business + AI adds Loom AI features listed on the pricing page, including auto-meeting notes, auto-meeting recap emails, video-to-text automation, advanced editing and auto-video enhancement.
