Rationale

Screencastify is a strong match for Loom's core functionality. It explicitly offers screen recording, webcam recording, and video editing. The platform also emphasizes instant sharing and provides viewer analytics. While primarily focused on education, its features align well with the asynchronous video communication concept. The 'Team Library' feature is supported by the 'School- and district-wide sharing' and 'Unlimited video collections with Submit' mentioned in their pricing plans, indicating a centralized video management system for teams. They also mention AI-generated captions (transcripts) and interactive questions (comments).
