Why marketing, sales, product, and design teams prefer Kommodo over Loom

Do more faster with AI-powered summary & editing tools

Kommodo's transcript-based editing tool helps you eliminate retakes. Save even more time with AI-generated summaries, chapters, and action items.
Loom has a standard transcript editor, but AI tools are a premium add-on.
“I absolutely LOVE Kommodo Decks. The editing with transcript has actually changed the way I record my how-to videos.” - Duy Nguyen

Answer FAQs once with automated step-by-step guides

Kommodo captures on-screen workflows and turns them into how-to guides automatically. Record a guide with or without a video for added context.
Loom doesn't have a guides tool, so it's less ideal for tutorials and SOPs.
“We were able to replace Loom (saving cost) and Vimeo record (buggy) with Kommodo Decks. We do our standard operating procedures with it, sometimes with the guide and sometimes without. Any time we do a new procedure, we fire it up and record as we go. It is also serving as a great replacement for email during technical troubleshooting.” - Consultant

Build sales and marketing collateral with landing pages

Kommodo's custom landing pages can include videos, text, images, forms, and calls-to-action. Make any video more valuable and more actionable.
Loom doesn't have a page builder, as it's a video messaging tool only.
“I had been looking for a suitable replacement for Loom for quite some time, and now Kommodo has arrived. It provides more features than Loom because it includes a guide feature.” - ankitsharma
