Woodwise: Wood Identifier

Snap a photo to identify wood — and get the hardness, workability, and best uses a woodworker actually needs. Honest answers, no weekly traps.

Woodwise — know your wood, and what to build with it.

Point your camera at a board, a table leg, or an offcut. Woodwise tells you the most likely species — and, more importantly, what you can actually do with it: how hard it is, how it works, how it finishes, and what it’s good for.

Most wood-ID apps just throw a name at you. Woodwise leads with the part that matters to a woodworker.

WHAT YOU GET FROM ONE PHOTO • The 2–3 most likely species — not one overconfident guess • Hardness (Janka), workability, and finishing notes • What it’s good for: furniture, flooring, turning, outdoor work, and more • A plain-English way to confirm it yourself (hint: shoot the end grain) • Safety notes when they matter — dust, toxicity, food-contact

HONEST BY DESIGN Wood ID is genuinely hard — even experts confirm with the end grain. So Woodwise won’t fake certainty. When a photo is ambiguous, it says so, narrows things to a few candidates, and shows you how to confirm. No false precision, no padded confidence.

A REFERENCE LIBRARY BUILT FOR MAKERS Browse 50+ common and exotic species, each with the numbers woodworkers actually use: Janka hardness, workability, stability, typical uses, price class, finishing, and how to tell lookalikes apart. Search it any time — no photo required.

WHO IT’S FOR • Woodworkers and furniture makers • DIY and hobby builders • Furniture flippers and restorers • Anyone buying lumber who wants to know what they’re really getting

PRICING THAT RESPECTS YOU Try it free. Upgrade for unlimited identifications: • Yearly — best value, with a 7-day free trial • Monthly • One-time lifetime — pay once, keep it forever No weekly subscriptions. No tricks.

A NOTE ON ACCURACY Identifications are AI estimates, not lab analysis. Use them as a strong starting point, and confirm with the end grain and a trusted reference before any safety-, food-, or value-critical decision.
