Loom alternative for sharing screen recordings for free

Loom combines recording and hosting in one tool. Dembed doesn’t record: it hosts and plays. In return, it doesn’t limit video length (only file size: 5 GB, 50 GB with Premium) and you can embed videos on any website with your brand.

For recording, OBS Studio is free with no watermark, and your system already has basic options: the Game Bar on Windows and Shift + Command + 5 on Mac.

• You lose Loom’s in-browser recording, reactions and timestamped comments.
• You gain long videos with no length limit, subtitles in several languages, “Skip intro”, folders and your logo on the player.
• And if your tutorials are public, every monetized view earns you money.

Before moving your library, compare these points on Loom and any other option. They’re the ones that most affect your audience and your earnings:

• How much they pay and how it’s calculated: Dembed shares the real ad revenue of each month with you based on your audience’s country, with a per-country breakdown in your dashboard.
• When you start earning: on Dembed every video earns from day one, with no subscriber or watch-hour minimums.
• Payout methods and minimum: Dembed pays via PayPal, USDT (TRC20), Payoneer or bank transfer from 25 USD.
• Viewer experience: ads in the player, no recommendations from other channels; viewers who don’t want ads can go Premium (their ad-free plays don’t earn money for the creator).
• Max size and uploading: files up to 5 GB (50 GB with Premium) uploaded straight to storage, resumable, several at a time.
• Your brand: player color, logo or watermark with a link, subtitles and a “Skip intro” button.
• Clear rules: Dembed doesn’t allow copyright-infringing content and has a report button on every video, which protects honest creators and advertisers.

Tip: if your files are MKV, upload them as MP4 (H.264 + AAC) so they have sound in every browser. Our guide to converting MKV to MP4 explains how.

1. 1Create your free Dembed account and confirm your email.
2. 2Download your original files from Loom (or use the copies on your computer).
3. 3Drag them into the Dembed dashboard: upload several at once and organize them in folders. Thumbnails and duration are generated automatically.
4. 4Customize the player once (color, logo, subtitles) and it applies to all your videos.
5. 5Replace the old links or iframes with Dembed’s on your site, blog or socials. From then on every monetized view adds to your balance.
