Is "Any" Capitalized in a Title?

Yes. "Any" is a determiner or pronoun ("Any Questions?," "Better Than Any Other"), and every style guide capitalizes it in a title despite its three letters.

"Any" in Sentence Case

APA reference lists, many news sites, and most UI text use sentence case instead of title case. There, only the first word and proper nouns get capitals, so "any" is lowercase unless it starts the title: "Write better headlines in any niche." Pick one of the two styles for a whole set of headings rather than mixing them.
