The free Loom alternative
OrgOrg vs Loom · Async video messaging, by Atlassian
Free for teams of up to 5. Every app, no feature gates, no credit card. Past 5 people, Pro is $10 per member per month.
Loom is the category leader for async video: a desktop app, a browser extension, AI titles and summaries, and a viewer page your recipients already know. It is free for 25 videos of 5 minutes and $18 per user a month after that. OrgOrg's Screen Recorder covers screen and camera capture with an instant link inside a suite that is free for up to 5 people. This page lays out the honest tradeoffs.
When OrgOrg is the right pick
Teams that record a walkthrough, a bug report, or a demo a few times a week and do not want a per-seat bill for it. OrgOrg is the right pick when the recorder is one tool among the profiles, go links, on-call, and feedback you already run in the suite. A link, a comment on the timeline, and a team library are what the video needs.
When Loom is the right pick
Teams for whom video is a primary channel and who want AI summaries and chapters, transcripts in 50 languages, viewer insights, and an editor that removes filler words. Loom is the safe pick when recording is a daily habit for most of the company, when the videos live in Jira and Confluence, and when the per-user price is worth the polish.
Where OrgOrg wins
- Screen, window, or tab with a camera bubble and the tab's own audio, from the browser extension in Chrome and Firefox, with no app to install.
- Every upload gets a link with its audience: you, specific people or groups, the org, or anyone with the link.
- Comments at a moment in the video, emoji reactions, and mentions, with the discussion attached to the recording.
- A team library with thumbnails, the creator, the length, and a view count, searchable and filterable.
- Storage that scales with the plan, 60 minutes kept 30 days free and 1,000 hours kept a year on Pro, as one of 20 or more apps for one flat price.
Where Loom wins
- AI titles on every plan, and summaries, chapters, and text-based editing with silence and filler-word removal on Business + AI.
- A native desktop app for Mac and Windows that records up to 4K, and a Chrome extension.
- Viewer insights that show who watched and how far, on the paid plans.
- Trimming and stitching on Business, and download of the MP4 on the paid plans.
- Recording and sharing into Jira work items and Confluence pages, and SSO and SCIM through Atlassian Guard on Enterprise.

How to move from Loom to OrgOrg
A screen recorder moves with the next recording, not with the archive. Keep Loom read-only for the old links, and record the new walkthroughs in OrgOrg from the switch date.
- Decide what the archive needs. Loom downloads an MP4 on the paid plans, one video at a time, and never deletes a Starter video. Download the handful that onboarding or a runbook depends on, and let the rest stay behind their old links.
- Install the OrgOrg extension. The extension records from Chrome and Firefox, and it also powers go links, Snipit, and the new tab page. One install for the team covers all of them.
- Record the first walkthrough. Click Screen Recorder in the toolbar popup, toggle the microphone and the camera, pick a screen, a window, or a tab, and stop. Preview, name, and upload. The recording opens in OrgOrg.
- Set the audience and share the link. Choose who can watch: you, specific people or groups, the org, or anyone with the link. Paste the link where the conversation is, and let the comments land on the timeline.
- Replace the old links where they matter. Re-record the videos that onboarding docs and READMEs point at, and update those links. A go link such as go/onboarding-video keeps the next move to one edit.
The verdict
Loom is the better pick when video is a primary channel: the editor, the AI summaries, the transcripts, the viewer insights, and the Atlassian integration. They are worth $18 to $24 per user to a team that records every day. OrgOrg is the better pick when the recorder is one tool among many: record from the browser, share a link with an audience, discuss on the timeline, and keep the library. The suite is free for up to five people and $10 per member a month after that.
