Capture AI meeting notes, create tasks by voice, collaborate in real-time, and manage it all in one beautiful place. AI that turns meetings into action: - Auto-generate structured meeting notes — summaries, action items, and due dates — the moment your call ends. - Ask AI Chat follow-up questions about any meeting, or generate replies and next steps from your notes. - Speak your thoughts with the Voice Assistant — Superlist turns them into tasks, reminders, and notes instantly. - Convert Slack messages, emails, and Linear tickets into tasks with one tap. The fastest way from idea to done: - Create tasks in plain language — type "call Sarah tomorrow at 3pm" and Superlist handles the rest. - Start projects instantly with AI-assisted list generation. - Add due dates just by typing them — no menus. - Capture notes, brainstorm, and turn thoughts into todos.

Both are free to download. Superlist sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $6.00 per month and Capacities sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $17.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Superlist holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 462 and 116 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 48% of Superlist's written reviews are positive against 58% of Capacities's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Superlist ships an update every 9 days, Capacities weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
