This is the future of advanced notes / PKM / tools for thought apps.

Harold

Today, I deleted all the other note-taking apps off my devices

Philipp

Sure thing - you are building the notes app of my dreams ♥️

Aisyah

I'm using Obsidian, but I'm willing to switch to Capacities for so many reasons

Arthur

I wanted to congratulate & thank you guys for creating such an intuitive and beautiful piece of software ❤️

Dave

In terms of vision @capacitiesHQ is close to the perfect combination of @NotionHQ, @logseq, @RoamResearch.

Peter

I have tried a ton of Note apps over the past month. Wow, I am very impressed of what you have here. Keep up the great work.

Piotr

I am extremely excited about capacities.io, and I know it will become an invaluable tool for many people. Already, it has become a daily tool for me.

Please do not stop and keep going.

Connor

Just signed up for capacities and I must say I am amazed. I have tried all PKM systems and this one ups notion big time. Very well done.

Lligi

Love the idea of @capacitiesHQ. There just seems to be no end to disruption in note taking. From Evernote to Docs to Notion & now ideas like this one, consumer centric products can always evolve into something more ingenious.

Brian Bourque

4.4 million new companies launch every year. Many will fail. Here are 3 startups that I'm rooting for:

Problem: it's hard to organize information in a way that reflects how the brain stores knowledge
Solution: notetaking that creates a network of ideas
Why it appeals to me: Notion but with more intuitive info relationships

Tom Ross

looks like notion and obsidian had a baby, intrigued!

@capacitiesHQ
I can’t wait for you guys to release your mobile app. Keep up the hard work guys! Here’s a 🍭 for your hard work

Francesco Ambrosiano

First time I try something like @capacitiesHQ and I don't feel lost. Felt comfortable after seconds, amazing. @NotionHQ is too overwhelming for me, @logseq too geeky.

Young and extremely smart team behind. They'll go far.

Cenk

As a product person who used Workflowy, Roam and Obsidian, I am very impressed by your unique product insight (Types).

Anna

I am testing capacities since yesterday and I'm super excited. So far I've been using Obsidian.

Joseph Wood

I always said this app was getting good! This is amazing!

Rafa

User interface and usability is great in this app! Congrats!

Stephen

I just wanted to touch base to say I am checking out your capacities app. I have only used it a couple of days, but am enjoying it very much. It is beautifully designed. Keep up the great work!!!

Joseph Wood

Ok, this is absolutely awesome.

In @capacitiesHQ you can now add a tag to an actual tweet embed. This allows you to create full tweet collections based around certain tags.

Shaila Lias

This is shaping up to be a fantastic tool. I love all the daily notes improvements.

Joseph Wood

I really like this app. It's so unbelievably close to exactly what I want in an app.

Anthony Baker

Okay, this is an impressive amount of work in a single software update. Another #pkm #TfT contender for sure. Really is amazing how far some of the DNA Of @RoamResearch is flourishing with DNP and back links and whatnot. Wow.

Sarah

Hello, I just thought I would write to say that since I had the onboarding call with Steffen in mid-May, it's been really helpful for me to use capacities even more powerfully. Since the newest update, it has been AMAZING to use. You are going in all of the right directions. Thank you.

Nathan

Thank you for creating this wonderful app.

Mauro

Interesting app @capacitiesHQ Is like @logseq + @NotionHQ

Arthur

To be honest, I’ve tried Notion, Roam, Reflect, Obsidian, etc. pretty much every PKM system out there and I really hope you guys succeed in building your vision as I really enjoy using it.

George

@capacitiesHQ By far the most intuitive app of it's kind I came across lately, wish it gains a web clipper as well as iOS/macOS apps soon 🙏 Awesome work guys!

George

Just wanted to say, this app is fucking awesome! Exactly the kind of thing I've been looking for. Kinda what I thought Anytype.io was going to be able to do, but WAY better and more powerful.
