Used Loom every day for a year.
Then I tried @cap for a week.
The part that got me: your AI coding agent can record a bug fix and drop the video straight into the PR.
Full breakdown (price, editor, owning your recordings) 👇

This sentence sounds slightly surreal to type, but @Cap’s first-ever AI model is currently being trained.
It’s built for one very specific problem, and solving it well will make the upcoming Cap Web experience feel dramatically better.
What a fun Sunday.
Fun one for @Cap. A new web experience is coming with 1:1 parity to Cap Desktop, plus a render farm I built so exports run server-side.
60fps playback in every browser. Rust + wgpu in WASM on WebGPU, with WebCodecs decoding straight to the GPU.
Early results are insane.
Everyday we find new ways to use AI.
Today i used Cap to edit a video, cut all pauses, long breathing, reframe it, crop it, etc... insane
With the right tools, it can do pretty much anything, everyone knows that, but still amazing to see it doing more and more things
ok @Cap has come a long way this year.
thousands of teams moving hundreds of thousands of videos from Loom. A calendar full of enterprise calls. More people finding us through search.
really proud of this. And we're still not even close to fulfilling my entire vision!
Biggest release we've ever shipped. A redesigned editor, 3D scenes, Studio Sound, camera cutouts, and a native GPUI app in preview.
