Loom records. Rescreen also edits.
Stop recording in Loom and you have the take as you recorded it, with a link to share. Cutting a mistake needs Business, and taking out filler words and silences needs Business + AI, where you run it as a step after recording.
Stop recording in Rescreen and the edit starts on its own. It cuts the dead time, mistakes, retakes, filler words and silences, zooms into what you click, levels your voice and speeds up stretches where the screen is still. You open a finished video, on the free plan.
Every Rescreen edit can be changed: restore a cut, remove more, or adjust a zoom. The original recording is kept.
Free, without the five-minute cap
Loom’s free Starter plan gives each person 25 videos of up to five minutes, at up to 720p. It has no trimming and no downloads. A walkthrough that runs to six minutes needs a paid plan or two videos.
Rescreen is free to record, edit and share, with unlimited recordings up to five hours each. Pro adds downloads in 4K, 2K and HD for $10 a month billed $120 yearly, or $20 monthly. See pricing.

Paying yearly saves about 17%. A team of five on Business + AI pays $1,200 a year. The same five on Rescreen pay nothing to record, edit and share, or $120 a year each for 4K downloads.
Where Loom is ahead
Loom is the better fit in a few cases, and it is worth being plain about them.
- A desktop app. Loom records from a desktop app with speaker notes, or from a Chrome extension. Rescreen runs in the browser only.
- Teams already in Atlassian. Shared and team libraries, spaces, and Loom sold alongside Jira and Confluence.
- Meetings. Loom records Zoom, Google Meet and Teams calls, and Business + AI writes the notes and recap.
- Sales follow-up. Viewer insights, email-gated videos, and a Salesforce integration on Enterprise.
If those matter more than getting a finished video without editing, Loom is the stronger choice. To weigh more than two tools, read our guide to seven Loom alternatives.
