What is Capacities?
Capacities is a note-taking app that organizes writing around typed objects — people, books, meetings — instead of folders.
What does it do?
Lets you define object types with their own properties and templates, then link them from a daily notes stream. Includes backlinks and a connection graph, tags, full-text search, saving PDFs and web pages, and mobile apps.
Who is it for?
Researchers, students, writers and knowledge workers who keep structured notes on recurring things like papers, people and projects, and want more structure than a plain document app gives.
What are the alternatives to Capacities?
Notion is the broader databases-and-docs workspace. Tana and Anytype take similar object-first approaches, and Logseq is an open-source outliner that keeps files on your machine.
