How to actually switch in a weekend.
Audit your last 20 files
Look at your last 20 Capacities projects. Note what you actually used it for. You'll find 80% are the same three or four repeat tasks.
20 minPick a replacement
Match your top tasks against the short list above. The № 01 pick covers most day-to-day work; the others specialise.
10 minRun a week in parallel
Don't cancel yet. Use the AI tool for every new file for one week. Keep Capacities open for edge cases. Track what breaks.
7 daysDowngrade or cancel
If nothing critical broke, cancel. If one workflow still needs Capacities, drop to a cheaper tier. Either way, the monthly line item gets smaller.
5 minThings people ask us.
Can an AI tool fully replace Capacities?
For most day-to-day work, yes. The tools on our short list cover the common tasks — generation, batch work, quick edits — faster and often cheaper than Capacities.
A small minority of professional workflows still needs the original. We'd rather flag those edge cases than oversell a swap that won't stick.
How is the ranking decided?
Editor's picks appear first when a swap has been reviewed; the rest are ordered by net community votes. No pay-for-placement.
Are any of these affiliate links?
Rankings are decided by community votes, not commercial relationships. If we ever introduce affiliate links, they'll be marked individually so you can see them.
How do I suggest a tool we're missing?
Use the submit link — it goes through editorial review before going live, and once published the entry is votable immediately.
