Record, share, move on.

A Chairkick recording gets an instant share page with comments the moment you stop. There is no required production pass or export step.

Edit only what matters.

Trim the timeline or cut words from the transcript when a take needs cleanup. Choose Tella when layouts, effects, and a deeper production editor are the point.

Bring Loom and Cap.

Paste Loom or Cap share links into Chairkick to move existing videos into your workspace. Tella also provides Loom migration tools.

Frequently asked questions

Is Chairkick cheaper than Tella?

Chairkick is cheaper on both billing cycles — Chairkick Pro is $9 per recorder per month ($6 billed yearly), while Tella Pro is $26 per user per month ($13 billed yearly). Chairkick also has a forever-free plan with 1080p recordings up to 10 minutes; Tella starts with a seven-day trial.

How is Chairkick different from Tella?

Tella is built around editing — clips, layouts, backgrounds — for videos you publish. Chairkick is built around communication: record your screen and camera in the browser, share the link with your team, and collect comments. Chairkick Pro still covers cleanup — trim the timeline or click words in the transcript to cut them — without a full production pass. If you spend more time explaining work than publishing content, Chairkick is the simpler tool.

Can I move my existing videos over?

If your videos live in Loom or Cap, yes — paste the share links into Chairkick's importer and it brings them in for you. Tella also offers Loom migration and batch-import tools.

Do viewers need an account?

No. Anyone with the link can watch — no sign-up, no install, and viewers never count toward your bill.
