Overcoming barriers with capito
Get to the heart of information
We translate from tricky texts to easily understandable German.
capito at a glance
capito is Italian and means:
"I got it, understood."
We want everyone to be able to say:
"I got it, understood".
But that's not the case yet.
Important information is often difficult to understand.
People are also excluded,
if they can't get into a building.
For example, wheelchair users
are being excluded
when the entrance to a building has steps.
We work towards a society,
in which no one is excluded.
We want accessibility for all.
capito is a social franchise network.
It consists of independent partners
at various locations in Austria, Germany and Switzerland.
capito partners use the experience and knowledge of the network.
But they are also working themselves
to ensure that this knowledge becomes even greater.
The quality of their work
is also important to the capito partners.
They work according to the to ideas
of the company atempo.
capito is a social franchise network with independent partners.
The word franchise means that customers receive the same products and services from all network partners.

Social franchise means: franchise in the social sector. The more partners atempo has, the more people can use capito products and services.
capito is available at 20 locations in Austria, Germany and Switzerland.
Setting a good example
For us at capito it is very important
