Full review

Loom is a video-conferencing and screen-recording tool for teams that need to explain things without another meeting. It works on web, browser extension, iOS, and Android, and it’s built around quick screen-and-camera recording, sharing, and viewer feedback. It helps customer support, product, engineering, marketing, and operations teams. A common use case is replacing long email threads or repetitive live calls with a short recorded walkthrough. The homepage examples show it being used for access-request training, call confirmations, and internal updates. One clear differentiator is the built-in editing and sharing flow. Loom lets you trim and stitch clips, add transcriptions and captions, control video privacy, and see viewer insights. That makes it more than just a recorder. It’s set up for sending a usable explanation fast, then tracking whether people watched it.
