Turn a plain-language idea into a real, live web app — no code required
Type a short description of your idea and Capacity asks a few questions, then builds the pages, data and logins in minutes with a live preview.
Generated apps can include member accounts, logins, saved data and payments, not just static mockups.
Connect Capacity to Claude or ChatGPT and build from the chat; each message runs on your AI plan rather than Capacity credits.
One click publishes the app to the internet, and you can attach a custom domain name in minutes.

Frontend and backend are generated together, so apps have real logic, data handling, and connectivity, not just UI.
Generated apps are deployed to a live URL right away, so you can share and test without setting up infrastructure.
The output is a standard codebase you can download, edit, and move into your own toolchain or repository.
