A rule-based tool, not AI. It compares your answers with 26 material families that have guides in this build and returns matching , partial or insufficient-information results with the reasons. It does not name approved grades, availability or supply, and it never qualifies a material. Your answers stay in this browser tab until you choose to carry them into an inquiry.
