Loom Alternative: Why Teams Are Switching to Zenrecap

Loom popularized async video communication. But as teams grow and budgets tighten, many are looking for a more affordable alternative that does not compromise on features.

What Makes a Good Loom Alternative?

A good Loom alternative needs to:

• Record screen, camera, and microphone together
• Provide instant shareable links
• Work directly in the browser without heavy desktop apps
• Be affordable (or free) for growing teams

Introducing Zenrecap

Zenrecap is a free Chrome extension that does everything Loom does — and adds AI features on top.

Key Features

One-click recording Start recording your screen in seconds. No setup, no configuration.

AI-generated transcripts Every recording gets automatically transcribed. Your viewers can read along, search through the transcript, and click any line to jump to that exact moment in the video.

AI summaries Zenrecap automatically generates a 2-3 sentence summary of every recording so viewers know what to expect before they press play.

AI chapters Long recordings are automatically split into chapters with descriptive titles. Jump to the section you need without scrubbing through the entire video.

Shareable links Every recording gets a public link instantly. Share it in Slack, email, Notion, or anywhere else.
