Company mission

To help improve global work culture.

Our take

Capacity is a legal tech company helping law firms make better decisions about who does what. Instead of relying on spreadsheets or gut instinct, their platform uses smart algorithms to match the right people to the right work. Whether a firm wants to prioritise training, balance workloads, or hit diversity targets, Capacity helps turn those goals into tangible results.

Work allocation has a huge impact on how law firms run (shaping careers, team culture, and client satisfaction). And when it's done well, people are more engaged, work is shared fairly, and firms can actually deliver on the values they talk about in strategy meetings. Capacity helps make this a reality. By giving firms the tools to staff smarter and more equitably, it's building a healthier, more sustainable legal industry that works better for everyone.
