Wizard
The right product, computed.
Deterministic product selectors that compute the right specification from published engineering data and match your own catalogue against it. No AI in the loop and no credits spent. The first preset, the bandsaw blade wizard, is live today.
How it works
From what you know to what to buy
A wizard preset is an interactive engineering form. It takes what the user knows and works forward deterministically, so the answer is explainable line by line.
Answer what you know
Material, workpiece shape and size, machine and priorities. Every step is skippable with a stated default, and anything missing becomes a question, never a guess.
The engine computes the specification
Deterministic engineering logic reads published charts: tooth pitch, blade family, width, band speed and loop length. Every line cites the chart that produced it.
Your catalogue is ranked against it
The specification is scored against your own products factor by factor: width, pitch, family, length and material. An empty catalogue returns an honest empty state, never an invented product.
Try it
The bandsaw blade wizard, live
This is the shipped engine running in your browser in specification only mode. Pick a material and a shape and watch the specification, the warnings and the questions change as you type.
Material
Workpiece shape
Machine, optional
Tooth pitch
60 mm engaged width sits in the 35-70 mm band (4/6 TPI).
Blade family ladder
- 1.Bi-metal (M42 tooth edge) (up to about 44-45 HRC)
- 2.Carbide tipped (TCT) (up to about 64 HRC)
Band speed, starting range
Low carbon and structural (S275, A36, EN3, 1018) starts at 60 to 80 m/min; tune at the machine. Silver curled chips are right, powdery chips mean feed too low, blue chips mean speed or feed too high.
Teeth in the cut
60 mm engaged at 4/6 TPI puts about 11.8 teeth in the work (aim 6 to 24).

The presets
One preset live today, built to carry more
Wizard is a capability of the platform, not a fifth module. It lives under Products beside your catalogue, designs and services, and any organisation can run it against their own product data.
The bandsaw blade wizard is live today. Further selectors follow the same engine pattern: typed data compiled from published sources, a deterministic engine and your catalogue ranked against the result. More are planned, and we announce them when they are built rather than before.
- Thirteen materials
- From mild steel, stainless and aluminium through tool steel, cast iron and titanium to hardwood, foam, leather, glass and composites, each mapped to its blade family branch and speed band.
- Solids, tubes, boxes and bundles
- Pitch comes from the published section charts: solid bars read the width band, tubes and boxes read the wall matrix and bundles read the bundle matrix with the clamping warning always attached.
- Width, speed and loop length
- Blade width follows the machine cap or the contour radius chart, band speed starts from the per material chart and loop length is entered or calculated from wheel diameter and centres.
- Warnings and break in
- Thin walls, interrupted cuts, work hardening materials and teeth in cut outside the target band each raise a typed warning, and every new blade recommendation carries its break in guidance.
Pricing
Free in the platform, £49 a month on your site
Wizard runs never consume credits. The only paid line is showing a wizard on your Kabaido built commerce website.
| Wizard usage | Free | Starter | Growth | Scale |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wizard presets | All | All | All | All |
| Runs a month | 20 | Uncapped | Uncapped | Uncapped |

Website integration is a subscription add-on at £49 a month per site, available on commerce websites built by Kabaido. Request it as part of your website build and the Kabaido team builds the wizard into your site, connected to your own catalogue and locked to your domain. It is not a self serve iframe.
Questions
About the Wizard
- Is there any AI in the Wizard?
- No. Wizard is deterministic engineering logic compiled from published manufacturer guidance. The same inputs always produce the same answer, nothing is generated and runs never consume credits.
- What does the Wizard cost?
- Running wizards in the platform is free with any Kabaido account. The free plan includes 20 runs a month; paid plans are uncapped. Website integration, showing a wizard on a commerce website built by Kabaido, is £49 a month per site.
- Where do the numbers come from?
- From published manufacturer and distributor guidance, compiled with sources and an access date. Every line of a computed specification names the chart that produced it. They are starting recommendations, to be tuned at the machine.
- What happens when my inputs fall outside the published charts?
- The wizard says so and asks, rather than extrapolating silently. A combination the charts do not publish returns an honest note to contact us, and a missing input becomes a question, never a guess.
- Can I run a wizard on my own website?
- Yes, on a commerce website built by Kabaido. Website integration is £49 a month per site and is requested as part of your Commerce website build: the Kabaido team builds the wizard into your site, connected to your own catalogue and locked to your domain. It is not a self serve iframe and cannot be set up outside a Kabaido build.
- Which wizards exist today?
- One preset is live today: the bandsaw blade wizard. Further selectors follow the same engine pattern of published data, a deterministic engine and your catalogue ranked against the result. We announce them when they are built.
