Rationale

Animoto offers screen and webcam recording, which directly aligns with the 'screen-recording' and 'camera-recording' must-have features. It also provides basic video editing capabilities like trimming and merging clips. While it doesn't explicitly mention 'instant shared links' with no upload wait, it does allow sharing via unique links and embedding. It also offers 'timestamped comments' for collaboration and 'saved branding' which is similar to 'custom branding'. The 'shared team workspace' aligns with the 'team-library' concept. However, it lacks explicit mentions of 'viewer analytics' and 'auto-generated transcripts'.
