Rationale
Vimeo offers a comprehensive video platform that directly competes with Loom's core asynchronous video communication. It provides screen and camera recording, editing tools, analytics, and a centralized video library. While it emphasizes live events and broader video solutions, its 'Internal Communications & Engagement' solution specifically targets the asynchronous video communication use case for teams, aligning well with Loom's value proposition. The website explicitly mentions features like screen recording, webcam recording, editing, analytics, and a centralized video library, which are key 'must-have' features for Loom. It also offers many 'other' features like comments, reactions, transcripts, mobile app support, custom branding, and security features.
