Rationale
Cap is explicitly marketed as an 'open source Loom alternative' and its core functionality revolves around screen recording and sharing. The website mentions 'record, edit and share videos in seconds,' directly aligning with screen recording, basic video editing, and instant shared links. It also highlights 'Multi-Platform Support' for macOS and Windows, and the ability to 'Connect your own storage, domain & more' which implies control over sharing and potentially password protection for self-hosted content. The mobile app is mentioned in the download section as 'Mobile App Support'.

[Product] vs Competitor B - which one should I choose?
Reddit·confused_buyer·Oct 14·+67
Honestly, after trying both, Competitor B wins hands down. Better customer support, cleaner interface, and they don't nickel and dime you for every feature.
Why we migrated away from [Product]
Hacker News·cto_mike·Oct 11·+234
The breaking point was when they changed their API without notice. We lost 3 days of productivity. Solution C has been rock solid for us since we switched.
