About Loom
Loom is an async video messaging platform (now part of Atlassian) that lets teams record screen, camera, or both and instantly share via link. Recipients watch on their own time — no scheduling, no uploading. It includes AI-powered features like auto-generated transcripts, summaries, chapters, filler word removal, and the ability to turn any video into written documents, Jira tickets, or SOPs.
