Logseq: Open-source networked note-taking system with object-based structure and local-first approach

A studio for your mind with object-based notes
As of 30 August 2026, Capacities has a free plan and paid plans start at $10/month. Capacities is a note-taking app that treats everything as an object with properties and relations. Softwr lists it under Productivity. Capacities is made by Capacities GmbH, launched in 2021, available on Web, macOS, Windows, Linux.
Overview
Capacities is a note-taking app that treats everything as an object with properties and relations. It combines the flexibility of networked notes with the structure of a database for a unique approach to knowledge management.
The honest half
Concrete and checkable, so you can decide whether any of them matter to you. This is the half of a review a vendor will not write about Capacities.
Cross-shopped
Each pairing was judged by two reviewers asking whether a buyer would genuinely weigh the two against each other. The ones that failed were deleted rather than published.

Softwr does not host reviews and shows no star rating for Capacities, because a rating we did not collect is not ours to publish. What is here is the pricing and platform detail from the vendor’s own pages, limitations we could state concretely, and alternatives a reviewer confirmed people weigh against it. Tell us if any of it is wrong.
