Overview

Tella is an async video tool for people who care about how their recordings look. While Loom optimizes for speed (record and share fast), Tella optimizes for presentation quality: multiple layout options (camera + slides, side-by-side, picture-in-picture), built-in editing, transitions, and custom backgrounds. The result is recordings that look like produced content, not raw screen captures.
