Arcade

Loom

Arcade

The Free plan allows 1 user, 1 published demo and 1 published video, keeps the Arcade watermark and cannot export to GIF or MP4.
Blur, pan and zoom, autoplay, branching, forms, insights and shared workspaces all start on Growth, which covers up to 10 users.
HTML capture, the API, SSO, custom domains, collections and version history are Enterprise only.
At 50 credits per 30 seconds, the Free plan's 200 monthly credits cover about 2 minutes of AI video; credit top-ups need Growth.

Loom

The free Starter plan is capped at 25 videos per person, 5-minute screen recordings and 720p quality.
Auto-summaries, auto-chapters and filler-word removal need Business + AI or Enterprise.
Business plans are billed per Creator, and Enterprise is sold on annual subscriptions only.
No Linux app is listed; recording is offered on Mac, Windows, Chrome, iOS and Android.

Arcade

Interactive demos: Recorded product walkthroughs with hotspots, callouts and chapters. A published demo is a live asset, so edits appear everywhere it is embedded, and demos use no AI credits.
AI videos and visuals: A video agent turns a prompt, screenshots or product docs into a video styled with your Brand Kit. Videos cost 50 credits per 30 seconds and visuals 50 credits each.
Capture tools: Record with the Chrome extension, the Figma plugin or the desktop app for macOS and Windows, which captures desktop and mobile apps. Camera recording is on every plan.
Branching and personalization: Growth adds demo branching, custom variables that personalize a demo for each viewer, call-to-action buttons and forms.
Voiceover and translation: Synthetic voiceover in multiple languages is included on every plan. AI translations of a demo start on the Growth plan.
Insights and integrations: Growth adds viewer insights, Audience Reveal and connectors such as HubSpot, Slack and Segment. The native Salesforce integration and data export are Enterprise only.

Loom

Screen and camera recording: Record the screen, the camera or both from the desktop app, the Chrome extension or the mobile apps, then share the video as a link.
Basic editing: Trim recordings, stitch clips together and add backgrounds, text, arrows and box overlays.
Transcripts and captions: Transcriptions and closed captions in more than 50 languages, included on the free Starter plan.
Comments and viewer insights: Viewers can respond with comments, emoji reactions and tasks, and creators can see who watched. Engagement insights and calls-to-action are paid features.
Loom AI: Business + AI and Enterprise add auto-summaries, auto-chapters and filler-word removal. An AI bug report feature fills in Jira work items from a recording.
Meeting recordings: Meetings can be recorded without a length limit, including on the Starter plan.
