A comment on Show HN: I made an open-source Loom alternative.

Reasons I use Loom: - Social features, users can comment & engage with my video to provide feedback

- Analytics, I get notifications when a user views a video (useful for demos/sales)

- Post-capture editing

- Set 1.X speed by default on videos (significantly reduces video length)

I don't find the capturing element of loom very good. Their chrome integration is pretty bad, seems to not handle clicking/changing pages when capturing a tab.

I recently started using Screen Studio and have really liked it.

I've found some of Loom's auto-descriptions (including previews in Slack) to be pretty solid use case for AI.
