Quick answer

Loom costs $15 per user per month on Business and $20 on Business + AI billed annually, or $18 and $24 billed monthly, with a free Starter plan and custom Enterprise pricing. A 25-person team pays $4,500 a year on Business or $6,000 on Business + AI at list price.

Key takeaways

  • Cheapest paid plan: Business at about $15 per user per month, billed annually.
  • Most teams that want AI notes and recaps need Business + AI at about $20.
  • Biggest hidden cost: SSO and SCIM require Enterprise.
  • Best way to save: license only regular recorders and bundle with your Atlassian renewal.

Loom made async video normal for product demos, bug reports and status updates, and since the Atlassian acquisition it is sold alongside Jira and Confluence. The plans are simple, but the free tier is tight and AI features live on a separate paid tier.

This guide prices every Loom plan from Atlassian's official Loom pricing page.

Loom bills per user. On monthly subscriptions, Loom charges the following month based on the exact number of Loom users you have. On annual subscriptions, you are charged for the tier that most closely matches your user count, so growth mid-term can move you into a higher bracket. Refunds are limited to the first month on monthly plans or the first 30 days on annual plans. Annual billing saves up to 17% and can be paid by card, bank transfer or check.

  • Everyone who records needs a seat. Starter caps each person at 25 videos of 5 minutes, which regular users outgrow within weeks.
  • AI is a separate tier. Meeting notes, recaps and video-to-text sit in Business + AI, a 33% jump over Business.
  • Annual user brackets. Annual plans bill the tier closest to your user count, so a few new hires can lift the whole invoice.
  • SSO means Enterprise. Single sign-on and SCIM are not available on either Business plan.
  • Short refund window. Refunds only cover the first month on monthly plans or the first 30 days on annual plans.

Which Loom plan should you choose?

  • Starter. Choose if a few people record short updates and 25 videos each is enough.
  • Business. Choose if people record regularly and need unlimited length and no Loom branding.
  • Business + AI. Choose if you want automatic meeting notes, recaps and docs from videos.
  • Enterprise. Choose if IT requires SSO, SCIM or custom data retention.

Is Loom worth the price?

Loom Business is fair value for teams that replace meetings with async video, and Starter is enough for occasional use. Business + AI earns its extra $5 per user only if people actually use the notes and recaps.

You are likely overpaying if: You license every employee when only a handful record regularly, you pay for Business + AI without using AI features, or you already have screen recording in tools you own.

How to pay less for Loom

  1. Remove users who never record. Monthly plans bill the exact user count, so removing people who have not recorded in 90 days cuts the next invoice.
  2. Commit annually. Annual billing saves up to 17%, taking Business from $18 to about $15 per user.
  3. Check AI usage before upgrading. Trial Business + AI for 14 days and measure use before moving everyone.
  4. Bundle with Atlassian. Loom is part of Atlassian, so ask for Loom pricing as part of a Jira or Confluence renewal.
  5. Ask for education or nonprofit pricing. Loom lists discounts for education and nonprofit organizations.
  6. Compare cheaper recorders. Screencastify and Tella start below Loom's paid tiers.

The bigger picture: why Loom bills drift

Loom spreads one recorder at a time. Someone upgrades to record past 5 minutes, their team follows, and a year later the workspace has dozens of paid users, a few regular recorders and an annual renewal nobody reviewed.

The bottom line

Business covers most teams, Business + AI is worth it only when people use the notes, and Enterprise is for SSO and retention. Review who actually records before every renewal and negotiate Loom with your Atlassian stack. Zapro keeps that renewal date and owner visible so the review happens every year.
