Systems and methods for selecting weld parameters are disclosed. An example machine readable storage medium includes machine readable instructions which, when executed, cause a processor to: present a user interface; identify, for a weld based on input received via the interface, user-defined weld information including at least one of a material to be welded, an expected result of the weld, an on-hand material, or weld equipment available to be used for the weld; transmit the user-defined weld information to a welding knowledge provider; present one or more welding plans via the interface based on a response from the welding knowledge provider, the one or more welding plans including at least one of a welding device configuration, welding supplies information, or welding operator instructions; and automatically configure a welding power supply using one of the welding plans based on a selection of the one of the welding plans via the interface.
