Kit (formerly ConvertKit) vs Loom
Two tools coaches often weigh against each other, compared on the same terms.
Kit (formerly ConvertKit)
Email marketing built for creators — welcome sequences, tagging and broadcasts, which covers both your onboarding emails and your newsletter.
Loom
Quick screen-and-camera recordings shared by link — ideal for form feedback, weekly check-in videos and explaining a programme without a live call.
Pricing
Kit (formerly ConvertKit): Free up to a subscriber threshold; paid scales with list size
Loom: Free tier with video length and count limits; paid removes them

What it is
Kit (formerly ConvertKit)
An email platform organised around sequences and tags rather than campaigns. A new client gets tagged, the tag triggers a welcome sequence, and the sequence sends the five emails you would otherwise write by hand every time.
Loom
Press record, talk over your screen or webcam, get a link. No editing, no file transfer, no scheduling. The recipient can watch at double speed and reply in text.
Best for
Kit (formerly ConvertKit)
Automating onboarding. Write the welcome email once, the "here is how check-ins work" email once, the "your first week" email once — then stop writing them.
Loom
Asynchronous coaching. A three-minute video reviewing a client's lift video carries more than a paragraph ever will, and costs you three minutes instead of a booked call.
Watch out for
Kit (formerly ConvertKit)
Pricing scales with list size, including subscribers who never open anything, so prune. And automation makes bad emails arrive reliably — write them properly before you schedule them.
Loom
Free-tier limits on video length push you to be brief, which is mostly good. Anything containing health information needs the same care you would give any client record — check where the video lives and who can open the link.
Editorial comparison — nothing here is paid placement. Pricing changes often; treat the vendor’s own page as the truth. How we review
