Questions
- Can Sceed share a link like Loom?
- No. Sceed writes an MP4 to your disk. Upload it wherever your team already watches video, or attach it directly.
- Does Loom edit the cursor after recording?
- No. Loom keeps the cursor as it was captured. Sceed records without the cursor and draws its own, so it can be smoothed, restyled or hidden later.
- Is Sceed free?
- There is a free plan, and Pro is $25 a month or $115 a year. Loom has a free tier with limits and paid subscriptions.
