The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Loom free tier capped at 25 total videos with 5-minute maximum recording length per video; Majestic pricing is based on consumable analysis units, so heavy usage can exhaust a plan's allowance before the month ends.
  • They diverge on capability: Loom covers Screen & camera recording, Majestic covers Trust Flow & Citation Flow.
