20 Best Loom Alternatives in 2026 (Free and Paid)

Quick answer: Tella is the best all-round Loom alternative for creators and teams that want fast screen recording, AI editing, polished layouts, hosted links, analytics, and a practical migration path in one product. Pick Vidyard for sales workflows, Descript for transcript-first editing, Screen Studio for cinematic Mac demos, Cap for open-source recording, or OBS for free local capture.

This guide compares 20 Loom alternatives by the job each one does best. We use five decision criteria: record-to-link speed, editing and AI, hosting and analytics, platform coverage, and total cost. Prices are the public starting prices available during our September 2026 refresh; check the linked vendor pages before buying because plans change.

Tella publishes this guide, and the author was paid to write it. We still name the cases where another tool is a better fit and distinguish a permanent free plan from a limited trial.

If you are comparing tools beyond Loom replacements, see our broader guide to the best screen recording software for Windows, Mac, browser-based recording, facecam, and teams.

Best Loom alternatives by use case

Loom alternatives at a glance

Why teams look for a Loom alternative in 2026

Loom is still one of the fastest ways to record an internal update and send a link. The reasons to switch become concrete when its plan limits or post-recording workflow get in the way:

• The free plan fills up quickly. Loom Starter limits each person to 25 videos and screenshots, with a five-minute recording cap. Its pricing comparison also lists 720p as the Starter limit.
• The fullest AI workflow costs more. Loom Business + AI is $24 per user per month and includes summaries, chapters, filler-word removal, silence removal, and video-to-text features.
• Downloads are restricted by plan and role. Loom's download documentation says Starter users cannot download their videos, and viewer downloads depend on the workspace plan and permissions.
• Different jobs need different tools. Sales teams may need CRM-connected analytics; creators may need better layouts and editing; privacy-focused teams may need open source or self-hosting; training teams may need a searchable library.
• Migration matters once Loom is embedded in the workflow. A credible replacement needs a plan for existing recordings, embeds, workspace organization, and creator onboarding—not just another record button.

If none of those limits affect you, staying with Loom can be the sensible choice. If they do, read our deeper breakdown of why teams are switching from Loom or use the comparisons below to match the replacement to your actual job.

How we evaluated these Loom alternatives

The rankings use the same five questions for every tool:

1. Can you record and share immediately? We separate hosted record-and-link tools from local recorders that require an export and upload.
2. What happens after recording? We compare trimming, transcript editing, AI cleanup, layouts, captions, branding, and export quality.
3. Can a team manage and measure the videos? Hosting, viewer analytics, permissions, comments, workspaces, and integrations matter once more than one person records.
4. Which platforms does it support? Browser, Chrome, Mac, Windows, Linux, and mobile coverage can rule a tool in or out before features do.
5. What does the usable plan cost? We call out permanent free plans, trials, watermarks, recording caps, and when the useful features sit on a higher tier.

The first 12 products below get full reviews. Eight shorter honorable mentions cover narrower platforms and workflows, keeping the total at 20.

Best free Loom alternatives

Before we dive into the full reviews, here's a quick guide if your main goal is to replace Loom without paying:

• OBS Studio — free, open-source, unlimited local recording on Mac, Windows, and Linux. No editor or hosting, but no restrictions either.
• Cap — open-source with a free tier for local recording and a Studio Mode editor. Cross-platform.
• ShareX — free, open-source Windows capture tool with annotation and GIF recording. No hosting (you configure your own upload target).
• QuickTime — built into every Mac. Zero-setup screen recording with basic trim editing. No hosting.
• Tella — 7-day free trial with full access to AI editing, hosting, and sharing. Not free forever, but no credit card required to start.
• Screenity — free Chrome extension for screen recording with annotation. Good for quick captures in the browser.

If "free forever" is a hard requirement and you don't need hosting, OBS or ShareX are the safest picks. If you want a hosted workflow with AI editing and don't mind paying after trying it, Tella's free trial gives you the full experience.

1 - Tella

Tella is the screen recorder that edits videos for you.

Full disclosure: Tella publishes this guide, so judge it against the rest of the list yourself with the 7-day free trial — no credit card required, and no forever-free plan (if you need free forever, OBS Studio at #11 is the honest answer).

Tella is an all-in-one screen recorder with AI video editing (Auto Cut, Auto Zoom, Layouts, Studio Voice). It records up to 4K, supports 60fps exports on Pro for videos up to five minutes and on Premium for longer videos, allows clips up to 6 hours, runs on Windows + Mac + web, and transcribes in 106 languages. Already on Loom? Loom folder import brings your existing library across in a few clicks. Teams at JCDecaux, Pleo, and Hubstaff use Tella for product demos, onboarding videos, and async updates.

The practical point: you can 1) record a video and 2) get a polished, edited result with no prior editing skills or experience.

I regularly provide asynchronous updates to my customers in different time zones using Tella videos. Instead of waiting for US-based clients to be free in my afternoon/evening, I create high-quality videos, edited when I mess up, and send them with a shareable link and the option to download.

I'm a very basic user of Tella. But that's not to say you can't do some really neat stuff. For the more adventurous video creator, Tella has fast become one of the slickest and most feature-packed screen recorder tools on the market.

If you're already using Loom and want a practical rollout plan, follow our guide to switching from Loom to Tella.

Switching from Loom to Tella

Your Loom videos come with you. Tella Transfer is a free Mac and Windows app that signs into your Loom account and exports the whole library in one run, including private videos and folders, either as MP4 files or straight into Tella, where each Loom folder becomes a playlist. If you only need one public video, the free Loom downloader turns a share link into an MP4.

If your team already has a Loom workspace, Tella is not just a replacement recorder. It also gives you a path for moving your workflow over: test the recording flow, import important Loom videos, recreate your key embeds, invite creators, and keep your old Loom links live while the team settles in. That makes it a better fit when you're actively looking for a Loom alternative because of pricing, AI feature gating, editing limitations, or a broader team migration.

Key features of Tella

• Ease of video creation
• Zoom in/out effects
• Automatic title suggestions
• Instant shareable link
• Record multiples clips in a row and merge to single video
• Apply custom layouts to moments in your video
• Custom background to match your brand
• Single shareable link option
• Download to 4K video
• Automatic captions/subtitles
• Auto Cut: automatically remove mistakes, filler words and silences with AI
• Studio Voice: enhances your audio with AI
• Auto Layouts: makes your videos more engaging by adding layout changes for you
• Loom folder import: migrate your existing Loom library in a few clicks
• Transcription in 106 languages
• Native Windows and Mac apps, plus a web recorder

Tella pricing (checked September 2026): 7-day free trial—no credit card required, and no forever-free plan. Pro is ~$13/mo billed annual. Premium at $19 per user per month adds custom branding, custom domain, and 60 FPS export.

Tella sharing experience: ✅ Excellent

Tella automatically hosts your video and generates a shareable link immediately after recording. Viewers don't need an account, and you can also allow downloads (up to 4K).

Best suits: Tella is best for either video averse content creators who need to create videos without prior skills or busy founders and small sales teams and tech professionals that need to create videos without a large scale budget or team.

2 - Supercut

Supercut lets you quickly record and share videos as a link — like Loom. It serves as a good Loom alternative for Mac users and has grown steadily since its 2025 launch.

Supercut shares the feeling that making a good video takes too much time. Founded by one of the creators of Typeform, it has matured quickly with features like one-click auto editing, multiple brand layouts, and AI-powered Q&A for viewers. It now supports Windows alongside its original Mac app.

One thing to note: like Tella and Loom, Supercut works best when you want to just record and share — no file management, no export workflow.

Key features of Supercut

• Founded by one of the creators of Typeform
• Get set up in minutes with Google SSO or email sign up when downloading the app
• Multiple brand layouts
• One-click auto editing
• Ask anything feature: Allow viewers to ask questions during the video and get generative AI answers
• Call to action links and boxes

Supercut pricing: Free trial available (no clear time limit stated). Supercut Pro is £12 per user per month and Supercut Enterprise (for 50+ seats) requires booking a call with the sales team.

Supercut sharing experience: ✅ Excellent

Supercut uploads your recording to the cloud and provides a shareable link as the primary delivery method.

Best suits: Supercut is best for remote collaborators using Macs and needing to create team updates, sales pitches, and product tutorials.

3 - Cap

Cap positions itself as the open source alternative to Loom. It's literally the first sentence on the Cap website.

Now, if you're a tech wizard or IT admin, you may favor open source over other models of video platforms (or any platforms for that matter).

But here's the thing about open source: it also puts a lot more responsibility on you. With open-source tools, security patches, maintenance, updates, and reliability aren't guaranteed—they depend on the community or your own team to stay on top of them. That might be fine if you have engineers on standby, but for most teams it introduces real risks: inconsistent performance, unclear support paths, and potential security gaps that no one is obligated to fix on your behalf.

Key features of Cap

• Instant mode with generated captions, title summary, and chapters
• Studio mode with local editing, custom backgrounds, and export options
• Cross-platform: Mac and Windows apps available
• Open source — self-host or use Cap's cloud

Cap pricing (checked September 2026): the desktop app is open source and free for local recording and editing. Cap Pro costs $8.16 per month when billed annually or $12 month to month. For a fuller breakdown, see our Cap vs Tella vs Loom comparison.

Cap sharing experience: ⚖️ Mixed

Cap has an "Instant Mode" with hosted videos and shareable links, but its Studio Mode emphasizes local recording and export.

Best suits: Cap is best reserved for teams used to working with open source projects. You may need to invest your own time and resources if things go wrong so you'll need a team ready.

4 - VEED

VEED's screen recorder is built directly into its browser-based editor, which is an important distinction. You're not recording in one tool and then exporting into another—everything flows straight into the core timeline for editing.

You can record your screen, camera, or both at the same time with VEED, with separate audio capture for your microphone and system sound. Once you stop recording, the video instantly opens inside VEED's editor, where you can cut, trim, add captions, overlays, brand elements, or AI enhancements without uploading files or switching tools.

VEED has been around the screen recording industry for a while but has recently gone all-in on AI features to help streamline creation and improve quality. VEED's latest party piece is AI avatars—so you don't even need to be the one recording the videos.

This was the major grab for me when testing VEED. However, I was presented with a list of character libraries rather than being asked to create my own avatar. I know there are use cases for "anyone" in your video, but for personalization and familiarity to my audience, I'd only want my own avatar.

Key features of VEED

• 15+ AI tools for pro-quality videos including "Clean Audio" and eye contact correction
• Full brand kit (images, video, audio)
• Translate videos to 50+ languages
• Clips
• Text to speech

VEED pricing: The free VEED plan allows you to create basic videos. Lite introduces non-watermarked videos and 1080p recording for £14 per user per month. Pro adds all your AI tools for £24 per user per month when billed annually. To generate AI video clips, however, you must add AI credits to your chosen plan.

VEED sharing experience: ⚖️ Mixed

VEED hosts videos in-browser and supports shareable links, embeds, and team workspaces. While link-based sharing is supported, you still need to export/render the project before it becomes available for sharing or hosting.

Best suits: VEED slots nicely into the AI-first or AI-everything crowd. If you want to generate high-quality videos without being in them, it's a good option.

5 - Camtasia

Camtasia, owned by TechSmith, is a software suite focused on creating and recording video tutorials. Camtasia allows for presentations to be shared via screencast or via a recording plugin to Microsoft PowerPoint. You can also edit images with automated workflows and even generate scripts from prompts at the higher end of the pricing tier.

Key features of Camtasia

• Blur and redact images
• Background noise removal
• Automatic filler word removal
• Video templates make it easy to create videos
• Customize royalty-free assets in the Camtasia library
• Highlight, magnify, spotlight, or smooth the motion of your cursor, using Cursor FX

Camtasia pricing (checked September 2026): Camtasia Essentials starts at about $180 per user per year.

Camtasia sharing experience: ❌ Poor for quick sharing

Videos must be exported first (MP4, etc.), then uploaded to Drive, Dropbox, LMS, or another platform.

Best suits: Camtasia remains a win for heavy PowerPoint users looking to take their presentations to the next level or those interested in a multiple-purpose tool to edit images too.

Not sold on Camtasia? Check out these 10 Camtasia alternatives.

6 - ScreenFlow

ScreenFlow, made by Telestream, is marketed as a "screencast" creator, which sounds straight out of the 1990s—as does its infomercial intro video. However, you get teleported into the modern day when creating videos for the first time. But that only happens when you've installed the software to your machine.

With ScreenFlow, you get simultaneous screen, camera, and microphone recording, alongside cinematic video filters, and a customizable title library. ScreenFlow also offers plugins to extend the functionality of the basic software (think WordPress style where you build a website then use plugins to add new features).

ScreenFlow plugins offer advanced editing tools, additional effects, or transitions. Just be sure to check they're supported on your current version.

Key features of Screenflow

• Built-in video editing tools
• iOS recording
• Stock media library
• Closed caption support
• Animated GIF export
• MP4 encoding

ScreenFlow pricing: You can get a free trial of Screenflow, but it may take some time to get full value once set up and plugins selected. Pricing then starts one-off at $169 and increases to $259 for premium support and a larger media library.

ScreenFlow sharing experience: ❌ Poor

You must render/export the video before anyone else can see it.

Best suits: Existing Telestream customers that want a single provider for video solutions.

7 - ScreenPal

ScreenPal, previously Screencast-O-Matic, is another video recorder that has gone all-in on AI. So much so that its messaging is: Keep your content real. Let AI do the rest. And while that notion might be scary for a lot of people, the badges like Starbucks, Netflix, and Amazon do a lot to appease the worry. That said, these badges appear on many of the names on this list of almost every Loom competitor.

ScreenPal takes a three stage approach to video creation and editing:

• Record any part of your screen, webcam, or both
• Trim & cut, add text, and enhance your video with overlays and music
• Use AI to generate video transcripts, captions, chapters, and summaries

Key features of ScreenPal

• Capture feedback, assess learning, and turn views into actions with interactive buttons & quizzes
• Translate your videos into 100+ languages with AI-generated voiceovers and multilingual caption
• Host videos in the cloud, embed them anywhere, and make videos searchable across your teams

ScreenPal pricing: Basic access to ScreenPal starts at $4 per user per month, increasing to $10 if you opt for the AI features.

ScreenPal sharing experience: ✅ Good

ScreenPal includes cloud hosting, shareable links, and embeddable players. Viewers can watch without downloading files.

Best suits: ScreenPal is best for busy content creators that want to repurpose and enhance their videos with minimal effort.

Feeling lost with ScreenPal? Record, edit, and share videos in minutes, not hours, with Tella.

8 - Descript

Descript has been a podcast editor favorite for some time. But you can also use it to edit any kind of video—be it product demo, client update, or online course. And, now, you can even use Descript to record your screen directly from your laptop, streamlining the video creation process.

I first remember James McKinven, podcast extraordinaire, telling me to use Descript to remove the umms, ahhs, and awkward pauses in my podcasts about five years ago. When I searched for a tweet mentioning it, I was thrilled to see he's still advocating Descript as his weapon of choice.

Upon using Descript, it became clear that it's first designed as a screen recorder for Mac users. For those versed in Windows for decades, Mac-like functionality can feel alien. Comparative reviews have reported:

• System audio setup can be slightly more finicky
• Very old versions of Windows (pre-Windows 10) may have issues
• You must grant permissions correctly the first time

Key features of Descript

• Edit or generate a script
• Apply professional layouts
• Create custom B-roll
• Remove filler language and long pauses
• Text-based editing for audio
• Regenerative AI audio correction
• Built-in green screen
• "Eye Contact" AI to allow you to read a script and make it seem like you're looking at the camera

Descript pricing: Single Descript users can start at $16 per month for 10 media hours. Teams of up to three get 30 hours for $24 per month. Teams of five get 40 hours for $50 per month. You also get priority support at the top level. Enterprises needing advanced security features must meet with the sales team.

Descript sharing experience: ⚖️ Moderate

Descript supports web-based publishing and shareable links, but many users still export videos to send elsewhere.

Best suits: Descript is a great option for video pros already recording videos but needing a helping hand to turn them into professional quality.

9 - ShareX

ShareX is a free open source video creation tool that opts to do the basics well and spend no time on bells and whistles. Upon evaluating the tool, it felt like I needed to already be in the know to understand what I was getting myself into.

With ShareX, you can apply image effects, add video actions, and upload your brand assets. When delving deeper into ShareX, you can translate your videos into other languages using the ResX Resource Manager Visual Studio extension.

While I'm certain there is more to shout about with ShareX, it doesn't strike a very appetising solution to the outsider.

Key features of ShareX

• GIF recording
• Multiple capture methods (full screen, window, monitor)
• Image beautification
• Annotation tools
• Screen color picker

ShareX pricing: ShareX is available free but comes with the same open source warning that you may need to expend time and energy to support it yourself.

ShareX sharing experience: ❌ Poor

Primarily local capture. While advanced users can configure uploads, this requires manual setup and third-party services.

Best suits: ShareX is only advisable to real open source fans who revel in getting down and dirty with the documentation.

10 - QuickTime

QuickTime has long been the core of recording videos on Apple devices. While it doesn't match the AI-heavy feature sets of many modern Loom alternatives, it earns its place on this list for one simple reason: it's already on your device and always ready to record.

QuickTime takes a streamlined, no-nonsense approach to video capture:

• Record your entire screen, a selected window, or a custom portion with one click
• Add audio from your microphone or system
• Make quick trims and cuts directly inside the app before exporting

Key features of QuickTime Player

• Zero-setup recording on any Mac
• Lightweight editing tools for trimming, splitting, and rearranging clips
• Record screen and microphone audio simultaneously
• Export in multiple resolutions to balance quality and file size
• Integrates seamlessly with iMovie for additional editing if needed

QuickTime pricing: QuickTime Player is completely free for all macOS users. There are no paid upgrades, subscriptions, or restrictions on recording time.

Sharing experience: ❌ Poor

QuickTime records files only. Sharing means export → upload → send link every time.

Best suits: QuickTime is best for Mac users who want a simple, dependable screen recorder without enhanced functionality or cost.

11 - OBS Studio

Open Broadcaster System (OBS) is a free and open source software for video recording and live streaming. This tool has a powerful API and enables plugins and scripts that allow you to further customize specific functionality.

I nearly didn't include this OBS in this list of Loom competitors as the interface is somewhat clunky to new users. However, it remains a firm fan favorite for those creating videos with remote guests. As David Maldow points out in his video, it's great for "virtual event hosts who want to add a professional touch to their broadcasts".

Key features of OBS Studio

• High-performance real-time video and audio capturing.
• Create scenes made up of multiple sources including window captures, images, text, browser windows, webcams, and capture cards.
• Ability to include remote guests in the same studio environment.

OBS pricing: OBS is available free but comes with the same open source warning that you may need to expend time and energy to support it yourself.

OBS sharing experience: ❌ Poor

You need to export the MP4 file and then upload it to Drive before someone else can watch it.

Best suits: OBS is popular with video creators collaborating with remote guests in a single video.

Feeling limited with OBS? Record, edit, and share videos all in one tool with Tella.

12 - ngram

ngram is not a direct record-and-send replacement for Loom. It is an AI video workspace that turns a screen recording, prompt, URL, PDF, deck, screenshot, or raw video into a planned business video with a script, storyboard, voiceover, captions, and editable scenes.

That makes ngram relevant when a Loom recording is only the raw material. A product launch, training module, or sales demo may need a tighter story, callouts, branded scenes, multiple formats, and more production than a quick async message.

Key features of ngram

• Generate videos from recordings, prompts, URLs, PDFs, decks, and screenshots
• AI scripting, storyboarding, voiceover, captions, and scene planning
• Brand kits, callouts, music, and multi-format exports on higher plans
• Manual editing after the first AI-generated draft

ngram pricing: The free plan includes 300 one-time credits and watermarked 720p exports. Basic starts at $23.20 per month when billed annually or $29 month to month. Premium and Ultimate add more generation capacity, higher-resolution exports, brand controls, hosting, and analytics. Check the current ngram pricing before buying because credit allowances affect the usable cost.

ngram sharing experience: ⚖️ Mixed

ngram can host and export finished videos, but its workflow is production-first rather than the instant record-and-share flow that defines Loom and Tella.

Best suits: ngram is best for product marketing, training, and sales teams that need to turn several source materials into a polished business video. Choose Tella when the priority is recording and sharing a polished async video quickly.

8 more Loom alternatives (honorable mentions)

The 12 tools above receive full reviews. The following 8 fill niche gaps — specific platforms, use cases, or workflows — that bring the total to 20.

General purpose

13. VokoscreenNG: A screencast creator that supports 39 languages to record the screen, an area, or a window. The software currently only supports Linux users.

14. Screen Studio: A native Mac app that lets you record your screen or screen and camera at the same time. Its key feature is animated zoom effects that are added based on the movement of your mouse. Mac-only, no free plan, and shareable links are capped at 30 minutes. For a detailed comparison, see our Screen Studio alternatives page.

15. SimpleScreenRecorder: An open source Linux program. One that's easier to use than FFmpeg/avconv or VLC, due to its straightforward user interface.

FAQs when searching for Loom alternatives

Outside of the 12 detailed reviews and 8 honorable mentions above, here are the most common questions people ask when looking for a Loom replacement. Facts and pricing checked September 2026.

What is the best Loom alternative?

Tella is the best Loom alternative if you want fast screen recording, instant share links, AI editing, branded video pages, analytics, and Loom folder import to migrate your existing library — all in one product. Loom is still useful for simple internal video messages, but Tella is stronger when you want the finished video to look polished without exporting it into another editor.

What is the best free Loom alternative?

Tella, Cap, OBS, ShareX, QuickTime, and Screenity can all make sense as free or low-cost Loom alternatives, depending on the job. Pick Tella if you want a hosted recording and editing workflow with a free trial. Pick OBS, ShareX, QuickTime, or Screenity if you mostly want local recording and do not need built-in hosting, analytics, or team collaboration.

Is Tella better than Loom?

Tella is better than Loom for creators and teams who need more than basic record-and-share. Tella adds AI editing, auto zoom, auto layouts, background music, custom branding, viewer analytics, CTAs, and Loom folder import for your existing library. Loom is still a familiar choice for quick internal updates, especially in companies already using Atlassian tools.

Is there a free version of Loom?

Loom has a free tier, but it caps you at 25 videos of up to 5 minutes each, which most teams outgrow quickly. If you need genuinely free and unlimited recording, use OBS Studio or Cap's open-source desktop app. Tella has no forever-free plan — it offers a 7-day trial, then Pro at ~$13/mo billed annual.

Is there a Microsoft equivalent to Loom?

Microsoft's closest equivalent is Clipchamp, which is bundled with Windows 11 and Microsoft 365 and covers screen and camera recording. It includes AI silence removal, filler-word removal, and audio enhancement, but it doesn't replicate Loom's instant-share-first workflow. If you're on Windows and want polished async video with built-in sharing, Tella's native Windows app records up to 4K / 60fps and edits the video for you.

What is the best Loom alternative for teams?

Tella is the best Loom alternative for teams that share customer-facing video: workspaces, branded video pages, viewer analytics, transcription in 106 languages, and Loom folder import for the back catalog. Teams at JCDecaux, Pleo, and Hubstaff use it for demos, onboarding, and async updates. For internal-only quick messages on a budget, Cap or Loom's own free tier may be enough.

What are the best apps like Loom?

The apps most like Loom are Tella, Cap, Supercut, VEED, ScreenPal, and ScreenApp — all record your screen and camera and produce a shareable link. Tella stands out by editing the video for you (Auto Cut, Auto Zoom, Layouts, Studio Voice); Cap stands out by being open source; ScreenPal by price.

What are the best Loom alternatives for asynchronous video?

Tella is the best all-round Loom alternative for polished asynchronous video. Vidyard is strongest for sales workflows, Descript for transcript-first editing, Screen Studio for Mac product demos, Cap for open-source recording, and OBS for free local capture.

How does Loom pricing compare with its alternatives?

Loom Starter is free but limits each person to 25 videos and five-minute recordings. Loom Business + AI costs $24 per user per month. Tella starts with a 7-day free trial, then costs $13 per user per month for Pro or $19 for Premium when billed annually.

Which Loom alternative is best for product demos?

Tella is the best Loom alternative for polished product demos when you want to record quickly, edit with AI, add layouts and zooms, and share one hosted link. Screen Studio is a strong Mac-only option for cinematic capture, while ngram is better when a demo starts from several sources such as recordings, screenshots, URLs, or a deck.

What's the best free screen recorder for Mac?

CleanShot X, ScreenFlow, QuickTime, OBS, Loom, and Tella are viewed as the best options for Mac users looking to create videos directly from their screens. QuickTime is also built into Macs and available for free, but its functionality is limited.

Want to get started for free? Download Tella for Mac here.

What's the best free screen recorder for Windows?

OBS, Camtasia, Bandicam, ShareX, and Tella are thought of as the best free screen recorders for Windows. Tella now has a native Windows recorder, so you can record from the desktop when you want better quality and system audio, or record directly from your browser when you want the simplest possible setup.

Want to get started for free? Learn more about Tella for Windows here.

What's the best free screen recorder for content creators?

Tella is perfect for editing videos to look professional and high-quality whether you're a beginner or an experienced content creator. Whether it's for YouTube, your personal website, or an online course, turning that basic screen recording into something beautiful can take days without the right tool. Tella takes away that pain, focusing on being the screen recorder that edits videos for you.

What's the best screen recorder for podcasts?

Riverside is strong for recording remote guests, while Descript combines screen recording with transcript-first podcast and video editing. Tella is the better fit when your podcast workflow centers on polished screen-and-camera recordings, fast AI cleanup, and a hosted link rather than multi-guest studio recording.
