Capacities
Capacities is designed as “a studio for your mind,” offering a space where everything you think, learn, and create can live in one connected system rather than scattered across apps and folders. It replaces traditional file-based organization with an object-based approach, where ideas such as people, books, projects, or notes become structured objects that can be linked together, forming a living network of knowledge. Instead of navigating complex hierarchies, users can connect anything to anything, with bi-directional links, backlinks, and a graph view that reveals relationships and patterns across their notes. It combines simple note-taking with structured data, allowing users to create templates, define properties, and view information in multiple formats such as lists, tables, or galleries. Daily notes act as a central inbox for thoughts, automatically organizing content into a timeline that reflects how ideas evolve over time.
