MIND vs — ComparisonMIND vs Capacities
Memory any AI can read vs Object-based note-taking app
A note app built around typed objects (people, books, meetings, ideas) rather than a folder tree, with backlinks, daily notes, and an integrated AI assistant.
Side-by-side
| Capability | MIND | Capacities |
|---|
| Builds the map for you | Yes — it works out how things connect as you add them | You pick an object type as you write |
| Other AIs can read it | Yes — Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor and more | No — its AI only works in Capacities |
| Works with any model | Yes — 50+ models, and switching costs you nothing | No — its own assistant only |
| Remembers what mattered | Yes — what you cared about is remembered more deeply | No |
| Spots things on its own | Yes — it spots patterns without being asked | No |
| Phone, web, and your AI tools | Yes — all three, today | Phone and web — no way in for other AIs |
What Capacities is
A note app built around typed objects (people, books, meetings, ideas) rather than a folder tree, with backlinks, daily notes, and an integrated AI assistant.
• Content organised as typed objects instead of files and folders
• Backlinks and a daily-note capture loop
• Integrated AI assistant over your own content
• Web, desktop, and mobile with sync
• Tags, collections, and cross-object linking
How MIND is different
MIND works out what connects to what on its own. Capacities asks you to pick an object type as you write.
Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini can all read your MIND. Capacities' AI only works inside Capacities.
MIND runs on 50+ models rather than one assistant that came with the app.
Frequently asked
What's the difference between MIND and Capacities?
MIND works out what connects to what on its own; Capacities asks you to pick an object type as you write.
Can I use MIND alongside Capacities?
Yes, and plenty of people do. MIND is the memory underneath — the thing Claude and ChatGPT read from — so it sits alongside Capacities rather than replacing it.
Is MIND a Capacities alternative?
Not exactly. Both help you get things down. The difference is what happens next: whichever AI you open tomorrow can read your MIND, and it comes with you when you change your mind about models.
Capacities pricing: Free; Pro ~$9.99/mo (~$7.99/mo billed yearly); Believer ~$12.49/mo. Details about other apps come from their own public pages; features and prices change, so check theirs before deciding.
