◆Current state
Capacities ships a named release about monthly. November's rebuilds the iPad and Android tablet app, moves audio recording and analysis into the Pro plan, and starts reminders in early testing for Believer subscribers. October added whiteboards and a global graph view, and September brought audio transcription and AI chats that can edit objects.
◆Where it's heading
Capacities keeps a pattern of trialling features with Believers and then moving them down to Pro, as it did with bulk import, image analysis and now audio. The tablet rebuild suggests more attention to devices beyond desktop.
◆Prediction
Reminders will likely leave Believer-only testing in a coming monthly release and move toward Pro, following the audio path.

    Whiteboards, global graph view, and polish on the basics

    Whiteboards and a global graph view give Capacities a visual layer over existing objects, alongside a polish pass on the basics. It adds a new way to view what users already store rather than a new data type.
