Loom

Loom

Loom is a screen and camera recorder built for async video messaging. You hit record, capture your screen, face, or both, and get a shareable link teammates or customers can watch on their own time. It is aimed at distributed teams that want to explain ideas, give feedback, or walk through a workflow without scheduling another meeting.

What sets Loom apart is how little cleanup a recording needs before you send it. Loom AI can generate titles, summaries, chapters, and written docs from your video, strip filler words and dead air, and even turn a bug walkthrough into a Jira or Linear ticket with device and console details attached. The product is now part of Atlassian, with deep ties to Jira, Confluence, and Slack.

Sales reps use it for personalized outreach, engineers for code reviews and bug reports, support teams for how-to clips, and managers for project updates across time zones. If your work involves showing something on screen and getting a clear response back, Loom fits that rhythm.
