Notabium vs Loom, for meetings.
Loom is screen recording. Notabium is meeting recording. The deliverable looks the same, a shareable link your colleague can watch, but everything that happens before the link is different.
Different problems, similar output
Loom is for one way recordings. You sit at your desk, hit record, talk to the camera, walk through a screen, and send a link. The recipient watches at their own time and replies in writing. Great for async product feedback, design walk throughs, customer onboarding videos.
Notabium is for two way conversations. You are already in a Zoom or Meet call with another person. Notabium is recording the whole conversation: both voices, the screen if anyone shared it, the synced transcript. When the call ends, you can click Share and get a Loom style link with the transcript embedded.
When each one is the right call
- Pick Loom when you are the only one talking. Tutorials. Product feedback. Sales prospecting videos. Async standups.
- Pick Notabium when there are two or more people in the room. Sales calls. Customer interviews. 1 on 1s. Team meetings you want to share with absent people.

Why our shareable links cost less
Cloudflare R2, where we store the videos, has zero egress fees. Every Loom view on traditional cloud storage costs the host real money per byte. We pay $0 to serve a video, which lets us pass the savings to you.
Loom still wins for one way videos
Loom's editor is far more polished for trimming, drawing on, and re ordering clips. Their video drawer for organising libraries is also better. If your main need is recorded explanations rather than recorded meetings, Loom remains the right call.
Use both
You do not have to choose. Many of our users keep Loom for screen recordings and use Notabium for meeting recordings. Both produce shareable links. Both work in any browser. The two libraries do not overlap.
