I'm absolutely busting to get these and other Media 2.0 features.
One thing I think that would be helpful (if not already on the radar) is the likes of YouTube videos that can be transcribed and used for further analysis by the user and/or AI.
Another nice to have would be the identification (essentially OCR) of text in images (like how Apple can OCR text in a photo). Additionally an essential feature should be the OCR of ALL text in the likes of a PDF (I get lots of PDFs).
Can't wait. In the meantime I looked at Heptabase, and whilst it has some great features (particularly for complex learning) it lacks some of the really nice features in Capacities.
Given that software can't have babies (Capacities + Heptabase = Super Awesome Software), I hope Capacities can add much of the functionality that Heptabase offers.
Thanks.

Hello! What is would like most from this would be OCR of images and pdfs (if needed or just index the text of the pdfs).
That would make capacities also great as an inbox for everything and I would be able to find it all again later.
Could also be nice to move over to capacities for keeping digitalized versions of paper documents if wanted.

It will also be complete if you could and new pages do the pdf and delete sections of text or edit them.

Ability to annotate uploaded PDFs

I would love the ability to annotate PDFs that we upload to Capacities! That way note taking can be easier if I want to highlight and make typed notes on the side of the document.

If this is planned, can we please consider allowing handwritten annotation at the same time? Annotating documents and media with a stylus would be incredibly useful, and is one of two things stopping me from coming over completely from OneNote.

The ability to capture media content (article content etc...) via chrome extension would be great.

PDF Annotation and distilling

I really like your app and I am currently using it for my daily notes and organization of my project and personal information and interests. A big pain point for me is the lack of PDF annotation, highlighting, a method of distilling information from PDF's into atomic notes or insights used for the larger goals and deliverables related. I really feel for any note taking app, a critical and "must have" feature is the ability to highlight text and images in the PDF, extract text and images into object(s) as needed such as notes or pages when processing PDF's into their synthesized output needed for use (the whole reason for note taking app).
Heptabase is incredible with their features related to PDF's and what their features allow users to do and would be a great source to compare to and emulate. If Capacities gets even close to that I will cancel my Heptabase subscription and go with Capacities. Until then, not sure if I can stay with Capacities as it is just too much friction as I deal with many PDF files daily.
Thank you for your consideration!

I really hope that the PDF Annotation feature supports Markdown in the notes(comments), binding to specific text/section highlight. This way, I can freely "write" code, formulas, lists, etc. I think Heptabase currently does a good job in this regard, like what I show below.
As a supplement, Heptabase is not very good at PDF export. I hope that when exporting the PDF annotated in Heptabase, the highlights can be exported together with the PDF.

Simply, all in all compact "Edge" like pdf editor. Which supports text highlighting + Non-text highlightings, Pen/pencil. Also nice to have a full fledged pdf editor and annotator like - Xodo (android), Notewise 3 (android), Adobe acrobat,etc.

It would be beneficial to have the ability to edit attached files, such as PDFs and images, including features like highlighting.
