Loom is an async video communication platform designed for remote teams, sales professionals, and customer success who want to replace lengthy meetings and text explanations with quick video messages. It provides instant screen + webcam recording with desktop and mobile apps, unlimited video storage on free tier (up to 5 minutes per video), AI transcription with searchable closed captions in 50+ languages, video editing features (trim, speed adjustment, CTAs, thumbnails), and engagement tracking showing who watched and for how long. People use Loom because it saves 10-15 hours per week by replacing 30-60 minute meetings with 3-5 minute videos, increases clarity through visual explanation vs text, and costs $0-15/mo instead of $50-100/mo for video hosting platforms.

Loom shines in remote teams explaining concepts visually instead of Slack walls of text, sales teams sending personalized product demos async, customer success delivering onboarding walkthroughs, and managers providing feedback through screen recordings. Teams see results fast, often reducing meeting time by 40-60% within first month and improving onboarding completion rates by 50-70% through video walkthroughs. It fits smoothly into your tech stack by integrating with Slack, Gmail, Notion, Google Workspace, and CRM tools for unified async communication. Loom is not designed for live streaming or webinars but focuses on quick async video messages efficiently.

Loom is recommended for remote teams, sales professionals, customer success, and managers who want to replace meetings and lengthy text explanations with quick async video messages.
