Scene vs Loom
Loom records you. Scene writes and narrates the deck, so there is nothing to record.
That’s it, Maria.
Book twenty minutes this week, and we’ll plan Q4 together.
Used by teams at
Side by side.
Loom is screen and camera recording for video messages.
| Scene | Loom | |
|---|---|---|
| What the other person gets | One link that plays the deck with its narration, on any device, with no login | A video link |
| Narration | Written to be heard, and narrated slide by slide | You record it yourself |
| Listener analytics | Every visit: how far it was heard, the slide it stopped on, and whether they booked or replied. No email gate, so it opens on any phone it is forwarded to, and visits are not named | Who watched on every plan; how much each viewer watched on Business |
| Book or reply | Book a time or reply, from any slide | A call-to-action button, on Business |
| Your own voice | Yes, trained once from a short recording (Pro) | Your real voice, recorded |
| Help with the story | Asks what the story needs, and flags anything it added for you to check | No. On Business + AI, it adds titles, summaries and chapters after you record |
| Your brand | A brand kit taken from your website | Logo and player colours (Business) |
| Listen or read | Both: listen, or read it as a page | Watch, with a transcript |
| Work as a team | A shared workspace for the team's decks | Shared workspace, comments and reactions |
| How it is priced | First Scene free. Then $25 for 500 credits, or Pro at $49 a month. Per workspace, no seats | Per user. Free plan |

Questions.
Is Scene a Loom alternative?
For a deck you send ahead, yes. Choose Scene if you want a designed deck in your brand, said cleanly the first time, without recording yourself. Choose Loom if you want to show your face or your screen right now, in one take.
How is Scene priced, next to Loom?
Your first Scene is free. Then $25 for 500 credits, or Pro at $49 a month, billed per workspace with no seats. Loom: Per user. Free plan.
Can I see how far they listened?
Yes. Scene shows every visit: how far it was heard, the slide it stopped on, and whether they booked or replied. Loom: Who watched on every plan; how much each viewer watched on Business.
Can I use Scene alongside Loom?
Yes. Keep Loom for quick screen recordings and walkthroughs, and send the deck you would otherwise talk through on camera as a Scene. Scene starts from a PowerPoint, PDF or Word file, so nothing has to be rebuilt.
Does the other person need an account?
No. One link plays on any device, with no login. They can listen, or read it as a page.
Can it use my own voice?
Yes, on Pro. Scene trains your voice once from a short recording and narrates in it.
