Capacities

Capacities is an object-based note-taking platform where everything you create has a type (person, meeting, book, project, etc.) with custom properties and automatic organization. Unlike freeform note apps, Capacities structures your knowledge around typed objects that can relate to each other, creating a personal knowledge graph that understands context and relationships automatically.

Best For: Knowledge workers who want structure and relationships in their notes without manual organization, plus people managing complex personal CRMs, reading lists, or research databases.

Key Features

How does object-based note-taking work in Capacities?
Every note is an object with a type (person, meeting, book, etc.). Object types have custom properties - meetings have attendees and dates, books have authors and status. Reference objects from any note. Capacities understands relationships automatically (this meeting about that project with these people). Graph view shows your knowledge network.

What built-in object types does Capacities provide?
Pre-configured types for common use cases: people, meetings, tasks, books, articles, companies, projects. Each has relevant default properties. Customize existing types or create entirely new ones. Templates for consistent object creation. Smart properties like date, status, relations, and tags.

How does Capacities help with daily workflows?
Daily notes as your inbox and journal. Calendar view shows meetings and scheduled items. Database views filter and sort objects by properties. Saved views for repeated queries. Backlinks and relations surface connections automatically. Quick capture for fleeting thoughts.

Can Capacities integrate with other tools?
Web clipper saves articles with automatic metadata extraction. API access for custom integrations. Import from Notion, Roam, and other tools. Export to Markdown preserves structure. Zapier connectivity for automation workflows.
