What Tella does

This is Tella, a screen recorder and video editor from a small remote team, founded in 2020. You record your screen and camera, tidy the result with automatic layouts and transcript editing, then share it as a link.

  • Recorder

    Captures screen, camera, microphone and system audio from the Mac app, Windows app, Chrome extension or browser, with a teleprompter for speaker notes. Screen and camera are separate tracks, so the layout can change after recording.

  • Edit by transcript

    Delete mistakes, filler words and silences by editing the transcript instead of a timeline. An AI mistakes finder flags retakes for you to accept or reject.

  • Auto Layouts and zooms

    Switches between screen, camera, side-by-side and picture-in-picture layouts automatically, adds zoom effects that follow the cursor, and applies backgrounds, borders and subtitles by default.

  • Studio-quality sound

    Removes background noise and echo and normalises voices in one click, with background music and audio level editing.

  • Hosted video pages

    Videos render instantly as share links or embeds with AI titles, descriptions and chapters, comments, reactions and call-to-action buttons. Premium adds a custom domain and removes Tella branding.

  • Viewer analytics

    Shows views, unique viewers, watch time, engagement, conversion funnels, individual viewers, traffic sources and viewer locations, with history depending on the plan.

  • Loom migration

    A migration tool imports public Loom videos and folders into Tella playlists, and the free Tella Transfer app for Mac and Windows exports a private Loom library.

  • API and MCP server

    An API, webhooks and an MCP server let AI agents such as Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor edit, export, publish and organise videos and read transcripts.

Tella pros and cons

Pros

  • Annual billing halves the price: Pro drops from $26 to $13 a month per user
  • Viewers are free seats, so only people who record and edit are billed
  • Clips up to 6 hours, unlimited videos and no storage or bandwidth limits on paid plans
  • Transcript editing, Auto Cut, Auto Zoom and Auto Layouts are included in Pro rather than sold as an AI add-on
  • Imports Loom libraries, including private ones through the free Tella Transfer app
  • Six months free for educators and students, and 50% off for registered charities

Cons

  • No free plan: after the 7-day trial you can't record, edit or export without paying
  • Monthly billing is expensive at $26 per user for Pro and $39 for Premium
  • Custom domain, removing branding and full analytics history need Premium
  • Windows app is described as beta in Tella's own migration guide
  • Reviewers on Product Hunt and the Chrome Web Store report bugs
  • Prices only in US dollars, with no VAT information

Good for

  • Founders, marketers and sales teams who record product demos and want them to look edited
  • Course creators and YouTubers who record screen-based tutorials
  • Teams leaving Loom who want a stronger editor and a migration tool
  • Educators and charities, who get large discounts

Look elsewhere if

  • Anyone who only needs occasional quick video messages and wants a free plan
  • Linux users, as Tella has no Linux app
  • People who want to record and edit on a phone

Tella: what to know before you pay

The product

Tella records your screen, camera, microphone and system audio, then gives you an editor to turn the raw recording into something polished. Screen and camera are kept as separate tracks, so you can switch layouts after recording. Tella says its editing tools are made for regular people rather than video specialists, so you can start from a recording that already looks tidy and only fine-tune what you need.

The editing

Layouts, backgrounds and zoom effects are added automatically, and you can delete mistakes, filler words and silences by editing the transcript instead of a timeline. There are AI tools for cleaning up audio, and a built-in assistant that makes edits from a chat. Videos are hosted on Tella, with chapters, comments, reactions and viewer analytics.

Where it runs

Tella has a Mac app, a Windows app and a Chrome extension, and you can also record from the browser. Phones and tablets can watch and share videos, but editing needs a computer. Tella also plugs into Slack, Notion and Linear, so a video can turn into a help doc or a bug report.

Pricing

There is no free forever plan, but Tella offers a free trial so you can try it before paying. Paid plans are charged per person who records and edits, and annual billing costs less per month than paying monthly. People who only watch videos don’t need a paid seat. Check the pricing page for the current plans, as Tella charges in US dollars.

Who it suits

Tella is aimed at people who make videos others will judge: product demos, tutorials, sales videos, courses and video messages for a team. It also has a tool for moving videos across from Loom. You can cancel at any time, and the subscription simply stops at the end of the period you’ve paid for.
