Our take: Capacity suits non-coders who want to describe an app and have it built and hosted, either with its own credit-based agent or from their existing Claude or ChatGPT subscription.
Main limitation: No free plan is shown, and the built-in agent is limited by monthly credits.
Who Capacity fits
Capacity suits non-coders who want to describe an app and have it built and hosted, either with its own credit-based agent or from their existing Claude or ChatGPT subscription. Based on the vendor's documentation, not on a hands-on test.
Best for: Non-technical founders
Also a good fit for
- Makers prototyping MVPs
Consider another tool if no free plan shown on pricing page
Or if
- Built-in agent limited by monthly credits
- Codebase export only from Growth plan

What is Capacity, and how does it work?
Capacity turns a plain-language idea into a working app with hosting, database, domain and version history handled for the user. Users can build in Capacity's own agent or connect Capacity to Claude or ChatGPT and build from that chat. Building from Claude or ChatGPT runs on the user's own AI subscription and does not use Capacity credits; credits power only the built-in Capacity agent.
