Editorial policy

How content and calculations are produced

Source hierarchy

For machine specifications we prefer manufacturers and authorized retailers. For affiliate terms we link to the merchant's own program page when available. Third-party articles are not treated as specification authority.

No hidden machine ranking

The calculators recommend equipment classes or modeled head counts, not “winner” products. Commercial relationships do not change capacity formulas.

AI disclosure

AI tools assisted with research synthesis, drafting, code generation and quality checks for this site. Calculations are rule-based JavaScript, not generative AI. Methodology and source links are published so assumptions can be inspected.

Corrections

If you find an outdated specification, broken source or reproducible calculator defect, email hello@stitchcapacity.com with the page, source and correction.
