The Hidden Cost of Recording
Most founders don't realize: Loom isn't just a recording tool. It's a production workflow. You record, listen back, realize you stumbled on minute 2, re-record. You get background noise, so you re-record. By the time you have a polished demo, you've burned 45 minutes.
Multiply that by 10 demos per launch, and you've lost an entire workday. DemoSpeak flips this: no recording, no editing, no re-takes. Your demo is ready the moment you upload screenshots. That's not a feature difference. That's a time-back-in-your-pocket difference.
When Loom Is Still the Right Choice
Loom is still the right choice if your demos are internal-focused (onboarding your team, bug demos, async updates). Loom's strength is simplicity and speed for quick communication. Choose DemoSpeak if you're creating customer-facing demos where polish and consistency matter.
- Internal team communication and async updates
- Budget is under $20/month and interactivity isn't important
- You prefer recording yourself on camera for authenticity
