Recording-to-shareable-link flow takes seconds, cutting down on scheduled status calls

Backed by Atlassian's infrastructure and roadmap since the 2023 acquisition
Cons
Free plan caps out at 25 videos, requiring an upgrade for active documentation teams
Business-tier features like AI text-to-voice and advanced analytics require the $55/month plan
Built for step-by-step software workflows, less suited to narrative or marketing video

Business + AI tier costs more on top of an already per-seat price
Atlassian ownership raises questions about how deeply Loom stays tied to non-Atlassian tools long-term
