TrailerCast vs Loom
Loom is the universal screen-recording tool, used by everyone for everything. TrailerCast is sales-specific: AI auto-edits, drafts personalized follow-ups, and surfaces engagement signals so you know when a prospect is actually buying.
Quick decision guide
Choose TrailerCast if…
- You're using Loom as a sales tool but the workflow feels like duct-tape
- Manually editing demo recordings + writing follow-ups is eating your week
- You want engagement signals (who watched, how long, what they replied to)
Choose Loom if…
- Your team needs a general-purpose video tool for engineering, support, and product (not just sales)
- Most of your videos are sub-2-min screen recordings, not full sales demos
- Your team already lives in Loom and you're not ready to introduce a sales-specific tool
Feature comparison
Loom records screens directly; TrailerCast ingests existing recordings (Zoom/Meet/Teams) or uploads.
Loom has comment reactions/replies. TrailerCast has a true threaded conversation per recipient.
Loom shows who watched. TrailerCast shows watch rate per moment, deal status, follow-up behavior.
Loom Business plan adds your logo. TrailerCast auto-composes the entire trailer with your brand.
Pricing
Starter $100/mo (1 seat). Pro $70/seat/mo (minimum 3 seats). Annual billing saves 2 months. Free to start, no credit card required.
Free tier (25 videos, 5 min each). Business: $12.50/user/mo (annual). Business+AI: $22.50/user/mo (annual). Enterprise: custom. Cheaper per-seat than TrailerCast for general video, but lacks every sales-specific automation.
What we don't do (yet)
Radical honesty section. Here's what Loomdoes that TrailerCast doesn't, at least not today. We'd rather you know upfront than feel misled later.
- Standalone screen recording (we're a sales-engagement layer, not a recording tool, though our AI Notetaker auto-joins calls so most users never need a recorder)
- Native cross-team usage like engineering walkthroughs, customer-support replies, and product docs. Loom is genuinely better for these.
- Generous free tier (we're trial-only)
- Slack-style emoji reactions on individual moments of a video
- Browser extension for instant recording from any tab
- Mobile app for recording on the go
