According to The Verge, Loop provides "blocks of collaborative text or content that can live independently and be copied, pasted, and shared freely."[6]

Microsoft Loop supports a maximum of 50 users editing a workspace at the same time.[7]

Similar to Notion, it includes workspaces and pages where users can import and organize tasks, projects, and documents. However, it also uses shareable components that allow content from Loop to be turned into a real-time block of content that can be pasted into Microsoft Teams, Outlook, Word on the web, Whiteboard. It also features the ability to use Microsoft Copilot.[8]
