The product knowledge platform for industrial products.
We resolve what a part is, what it’s equivalent to, and whether it’s already sitting on your shelf.
What Araday does
Product discovery
Resolve a partial number, a legacy number, or a description — down to the exact, orderable manufacturer part number.
Cross-referencing
Match any manufacturer’s part number to its equivalents across brands, with direct interchanges separated from close-but-not-exact substitutes.
Cross-selling
Surface the compatible parts, accessories, and assembly components that go with whatever was just identified.
Built for industrial parts. Coverage today is deepest in bearings, power transmission, and electromechanical — the categories where cross-referencing is hardest.
Why this is hard
Contact angle, cage material, preload, precision class — everything after B7026 decides whether the part fits the application, and none of it is on the part itself. Somebody has to already know.

We’re writing about part identification, cross-referencing, and the product knowledge gap in industrial distribution.
