The Verdict

Loom (by Loom, founded 2015) and InVideo (by InVideo, founded 2019) both compete in the video space, but they serve slightly different needs. Both tools offer 4 core features, but their strengths differ. Loom excels at screen recording, whereas InVideo puts more emphasis on ai generation. However, Loom has a distinct advantage for Async communication and Tutorials. On the other hand, InVideo is better suited for Social media videos and Marketing. Loom is particularly popular among Remote teams and Educators, while InVideo tends to attract Marketers and Content creators. Both tools operate on a freemium model starting at $12.50/mo, making cost a non-factor in your decision. No tool is perfect. Loom's main limitation is not for editing, which might be a dealbreaker for some workflows. Meanwhile, InVideo's biggest drawback is watermark free. We recommend Loom as the stronger overall choice (4.4 vs 4.1). It pulls ahead with stronger screen recording capabilities. However, if your workflow centers on templates, InVideo remains a highly capable alternative.

Choose Loom if:
  • • You prioritize screen recording
  • • You prioritize video messages
Choose InVideo if:
  • • You prioritize templates
  • • You prioritize ai generation
