Overall, both words (ability and capability) are synonyms, but
1. Capability tends to be used to describe a group or company, while ability tends to be used to describe an individual. For example, a company may state something like "We have the capability to inspire," while an individual might say "I have the ability to inspire."

2. Capability is synonymous to a person, group or firms practical ability while ability is more of one’s talents, skills or level of expertise.
