Domain check
This usually takes about 2 seconds. RDAP catches the case where a domain is registered but currently has no nameservers (expired-redemption, parked, just-registered).
Every phonic in the name carries weight. Here's what each segment does — read left to right.
act of, modern tech connotation via .io domain
Two-vowel ending — open, exhalation. Modern SaaS feels.
e.g. Twilio · Studio · Trio
Latin / IO TLD root
Tight, terse, definite
T cuts. Tesla, Twitter, TikTok (double-T), Twilio. Compact and decisive. Reduplicated T (TikTok) is bouba/kiki playful.
e.g. Tesla · Twitter · TikTok · Twilio · Target
Confident, open, expansive
A opens the mouth wide. Brands starting with A feel approachable and confident — Amazon, Apple, Asana, Adobe, Atlassian. The open vowel makes a name feel inclusive and platform-like.
e.g. Amazon · Apple · Asana · Adobe · Atlassian

Round, bouba, full
O is the bouba/kiki experiment's round letter — across every language tested, a round shape gets associated with O-sound. Cross-cultural roundness. Best for friendly, premium, container/orb brands.
e.g. Sonos · Roku · Volvo · Otto · Onfido
Zany, attention, edge
Z is loud. Zoom, Zillow, Zendesk, Zara. Less universal than S — Z is more youth-energy. Used when you want the name to feel buzzy or kinetic.
e.g. Zoom · Zillow · Zendesk · Zara · Ziploc

First-letter feeling
I-onset: Small, precise, individual
I is the smallest character on the keyboard. Used for personal/lightweight brands (Instagram, iPhone). Apple's i-prefix is the modern naming canon. Front-vowel I makes things feel sharp and small.

How we check. Step 1 (client-side): POST /api/check
with iotacroz.com. The function hashes the SLD against our bloom
filter (built daily from the .com zone). Step 2 (only if step 1 said
"not in zone"): GET /api/rdap?domain=iotacroz.com which HEADs
VeriSign's RDAP endpoint to confirm whether the domain is held at the
registry without active nameservers. Neither step logs your query.
