Opivv vs Loom: an honest comparison

Same one-click screen recording workflow. The difference: Opivv unlocks the features people actually upgrade for at $5 a month; Loom keeps them in a $12.50 a month Business tier.

Pick Opivv if
  • You record in Chrome and want the Pro features (AI transcripts, password links, uploads) without paying for a Business tier
  • You want chapters and click highlights so longer videos stay watchable
  • You want async review built in: viewers reply with their own screen or camera recording, thread the discussion, and mark it resolved
  • You do client work: invite a client to review one private folder as a guest, no seat required
  • You want recordings auto-saved to your own Dropbox, Drive, or Box
  • $5 a month matters: solo founders, freelancers, small teams
Pick Loom if
  • You need a desktop app (recording outside the browser) or mobile recording
  • Your company already lives in the Atlassian ecosystem
  • You need enterprise procurement, SSO/SCIM, and a large-org rollout

Switching from Loom in three steps

  1. Export from Loom. Open a Loom video, open its menu and choose Download. Repeat for the clips you want to keep (MP4).
  2. Upload to Opivv. In your library, press New video, then Upload a video (Pro). Each upload gets a player, share link and AI transcript.
  3. Update your links. Anywhere a Loom link lives (docs, onboarding, a README), paste the new Opivv link. Viewers need no account.

That is the honest version: Loom is a bigger product with native apps; Opivv is the browser-first recorder that gives individuals the premium workflow at an individual's price. Try both free in an afternoon and keep the one you reach for.

Frequently asked

If you record in Chrome and share via links, yes. Opivv covers the core Loom workflow (one-click recording, camera bubble, instant share links, threaded comments with video replies, analytics) and unlocks AI transcripts, password protection, and uploads at $5/month instead of Loom’s $12.50/month Business tier. It also adds client review folders: invite a client to review one folder as a guest, no seat needed. If you need a desktop or mobile app, Loom is the better fit today.
