AI Material Selection Software for Engineers and Technical Teams

Compare materials faster using TDS, SDS, engineering data, and internal documentation.

Built to help teams identify the best-fit material for specific applications with more speed and confidence.

If your material has data, SpecQuery can analyze it.

Trusted by engineers, technical sales, manufacturing, and sourcing teams.

Why material selection is still too slow

Engineers and technical teams often rely on disconnected PDFs, supplier literature, legacy notes, and manual comparison when performing material selection or adhesive selection. That slows response time, increases inconsistency, and creates avoidable risk.

Fragmented data

TDS, SDS, test data, and application notes are often spread across multiple files and systems.

Slow decisions

Material shortlisting can take days or weeks when teams have to interpret data manually.

Costly errors

The wrong selection can lead to rework, overengineering, poor field performance, or lost opportunities.

How SpecQuery works

A structured workflow that turns engineering data into faster, clearer material selection and adhesive selection decisions.

01

Input requirements

Capture substrates, environment, temperature, cure needs, approvals, and other performance targets.

02

Analyze data

Review TDS, SDS, engineering criteria, and internal documentation against the application need.

03

Rank materials

Generate ranked options based on best fit rather than forcing teams to sort everything manually.

04

Move faster

Shorten the path from technical question to shortlist, trial planning, and final recommendation.

Built for more than one material category

SpecQuery is designed to support any technical material system with usable structured data, including adhesives, sealants, coatings, resins, polymers, composites, lubricants, and specialty chemicals.

What data can it use?

Technical data sheets, safety data sheets, lab results, supplier documentation, internal notes, customer-specific application knowledge, and other structured engineering inputs.

Example result output

SpecQuery helps turn application requirements into ranked recommendations with clear technical reasoning.

Sample query
  • Substrates: Aluminum to ABS
  • Environment: Light chemical exposure
  • Temperature: 120°C intermittent
  • Requirement: Structural bond
  • Cure priority: Faster throughput
Rank #1 — Material Match A

Best overall structural fit with strong aluminum/ABS compatibility and balanced cure profile.

94%
Rank #2 — Material Match B

Faster cure and strong adhesion profile, with slightly narrower processing flexibility.

89%
Rank #3 — Material Match C

Useful alternative when chemical resistance is weighted more heavily than cure speed.

84%
