Good good stuff. Immediately useful product with a clear revenue stream and effective implementation.

I just inputted [My company will _]: "deliver zero value through the use of advanced cryptographic algorithms and web3 protocols" and got some pretty nice names, alas most of them are already taken.

If anyone else is planning to sell ice to Eskimos, I just saved you an API call: - IceEskimos.com - ArcticIceCo.com - ChillyChillers.com - ChillInn.com - FrostBites.com (my favorite) This is so fun, but also not good for my domain buying addiction. Great job!

Oh that's fun! Maybe I should offer to optionally save the queries so that others can browse all these great use cases. Ice to Eskimos. Brilliant!

Great idea. Thanks for sharing, and congrats on launching it! As someone unfortunately prone to coming up with grand plans to build things, I could get a lot of use out of this. I have a handful of domains currently collecting dust, but hope to actually follow through on my plans at some point :) Far more time than I'd care to admit was spent on finding them, so something like this would have been a great time saver. The most important feature IMO is the .com availability checking, which doesn't seem to be working at the moment. In addition to the AI-generated names, it might be nice to allow users to enter names manually as well (once I see an AI generated one, by brain starts to generate lots of similar ideas). Another cool feature could be to be able to select a domain you like, and then have it generate further suggestions similar to that name.

Thank you! I will definitely add these to a list of new features and get them shipped. Btw, I just switched the API, so .com checking should be available again. Unlike the old API, this one will mark something as "available" whether it's actually not-taken, or if it costs $9,000 to buy. Not ideal, as I think a lot of us would prefer actually cheap domains, but it's a midway solution to make it work right away.

I wasn't expecting much and entered 'increase your [junk] size' as a business description for the lols - got some good results like SuperInches.com and ManlyGain.com :D

lol. those are pretty good indeed! Who knows, maybe its your new calling. Next thing you own a billion-dollar supplements company.

Really cool! I did something very similar about a year and a half ago, and it's been coasting with okay traffic since then: namy.ai Curious to know what you're using in the backend? Did you do any finetuning? Happy to share my process (what I did was scrape top 1mill websites and use that as training data for names on T5 nlp model)

I am curious - are you getting any referral fee from GoDaddy/Namecheap when you send users for registration? I've tried to find a program on their site, but it seems like a dark forest. There are some referral banners, but not direct "register this domain, and get back a dollar" kind of thing.

I used to, try checking out cjaffiliate, they have (or used to have) namecheap listed there as an affiliate partner

I love the pencil-sketch style of your finding. Really cool. I am using OpenAI GPT3 with a single (but long) prompt, explaining how to come up with the names that I think would be interesting. Honestly, people who just about "prompt engineering" are pretty on point. It requires a bit of experimentation, but in this case I didn't have to do any fine tuning of the model itself, just the prompt. I might come up with an array of different prompts to alter results, depends on user preferences.

Is that economic for you? What's the cost of asking GPT these days? My numbers for affiliate earnings were relatively low, which is why im asking. OpenAI API is expensive.
|
|
|
|
This is really good! Unfortunately, I think the "checking" of the names isnt working - many I have tried were registered
|
|
|
|
Update: Apologies to anyone who doesn't get the red/green light on .com availability. I hit API rate limit on that function and quickly updating the backend to use a different API. Will be done shortly!

it's actually possible to download a list of all domains in .com TLD.
Google for how to download domains from ICANN. I think it takes like a day to your request approved.

Really excited to see this! It works surprisingly well. Could you darken the red or lighten the green a bit? With red/green color blindness (about 5% of people I think) I can't really tell the border colors apart.
|
|
|
|
Thank you! And yes, good point. I just updated the colors, and made borders thicker so it's easier to see. Did that help?
|
|
|
|
Is this thing front-running? Every domain in my search is "premium" for $1000+.
|
|
|
|
Heh. If only I had the budget for that. No, but the API I was using earlier was checking for truly available domains, but I got quickly rate-limited by that one. With the new api I get "available" even if it costs a house to buy it. I'll try to add some additional checks and differentiate naked domains and expensive ones.
|
|
|
|
Cool idea, but it shows unavailable domains as green.
