Loom is the tool most teams already know, and its plans map well onto a gradual move away from status meetings. The free Starter plan lets up to 50 members record 25 videos each, with transcriptions in more than 50 languages, comments and emoji reactions, which is enough to pilot recorded stand-ups. The limit is length: Starter stops each recording at 5 minutes and records at up to 720p. Business, listed at $18 per user per month on monthly billing with up to 17 percent off for annual payment, removes video and length limits, adds trim and stitch editing, password-protected videos and engagement insights, and lets you remove Loom branding. Business + AI at $24 adds auto titles, summaries, chapters, tasks, filler word removal and auto meeting notes. Loom connects to Slack, Jira, Confluence and GitHub, so updates land where work is tracked. Enterprise adds SSO, SCIM and a 99.95% uptime SLA.
