What they are

Loom

Loom is a video messaging tool that lets creators, teams, and educators record their screen, camera, or both and instantly share a link. It is widely used for async communication, product walkthroughs, and feedback on creative work. The free tier is genuinely usable, though video length limits and storage caps push most active users toward a paid plan fairly quickly.

Teachable

Teachable is a hosted course platform where creators build, market, and sell online courses, coaching programs, and digital downloads. It handles payment processing, student management, and course delivery in one place, making it a practical choice for solo educators and small teams. The tradeoff is that transaction fees apply on lower-tier plans, which quietly erodes revenue until you upgrade.
