How Kabaido structures requests

Understand the structured result Kabaido returns: typed line items, normalised units and a citation behind every value.

Whatever you send, Kabaido turns it into a structured result you can read at a glance and act on. The heart of it is a table of line items, one row per thing the customer is asking for.

Intent

Kabaido reads what the customer wants overall: a quote, an order, a service request or information. The intent decides which action card you are offered at the end. When the wording genuinely reads two ways, a warning chip says so and you choose the mode.

Typed line items

Each line carries a description, a quantity, a unit of measure and a domain classification. Attributes such as material, diameter or coating are pulled out into their own typed fields rather than left buried in prose.

Normalised units

Measurements are normalised to consistent units so lines compare cleanly, and the original wording is kept alongside. Abbreviations are expanded to their full meaning.

Every value is cited

Each attribute records the exact place in your request it came from, the source span. You can trace any value back to the text or cell it was read from, so nothing is taken on trust.

Missing means a question, never a guess

If a value is not stated, Kabaido leaves it empty and raises a clarification instead of filling the gap. It will not invent a specification, tolerance, price or part number.
