Loom videos and X posts, embedded directly in Tana

Links are useful. Context you can act on is better. With native embeds for Loom videos and X posts, Tana now lets you view, play, and interact with external content without leaving your workspace.

If your team relies on async video, social signals, or shared references to make decisions, this removes one more layer of friction from everyday work.

From feature request to feature shipped

Many of our users have shared a simple frustration: Loom videos are central to how their team communicates, but in Tana they showed up as plain links. YouTube embeds worked beautifully. Loom did not. That extra step of context switching broke flow and slowed teams down.

That request stuck with us. And today, we've solved it.

Paste a Loom or x.com link into Tana, and it now renders as a rich, interactive embed automatically.

What works out of the box

For both Loom and X

  • Paste a link and it instantly expands into an embedded view
  • Remove the embed at any time using the X in the top right if you prefer a clean link
  • Keeps the original URL intact, just with more context when you want it

Loom embeds

  • Play videos directly inside Tana
  • Full playback controls including speed, captions, quality, and skip forward or back
  • Leave emoji reactions
  • View and write comments without leaving Tana

This is especially powerful for teams using Loom for documentation, SOPs, client projects, onboarding processes, or decision tracking. The video lives right next to the tasks, notes, and follow-ups it relates to.

X post embeds

  • See the post inline, without opening a new tab
  • Click reply to continue the conversation directly in your browser

Perfect for tracking inspiration, industry conversations, saving customer feedback, or anchoring internal discussions to public context.

Why this matters for knowledge work

Most teams already communicate across tools. Videos live in Loom. Signals live on X. Decisions live somewhere else entirely.

By embedding this content directly into your notes, projects, and meeting records, you reduce context switching and preserve intent. A Loom walkthrough is no longer just a link, it’s part of the system your team builds knowledge in. An X post is no longer a bookmark, it’s a reference you can think and act from.

This is another small but important step toward a workspace where information doesn’t just get stored, but stays usable.

Try it now

Just paste a Loom or x.com link into Tana and see it expand. No settings to toggle, no setup required.

And if there’s another workflow that feels one click more annoying than it should be, keep telling us. This improvement started exactly that way.
