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.
Sharp, crisp, bright
K is the bouba/kiki experiment's spiky letter. Kodak, Krispy, Kindle. Pairs well with the bouba/kiki rule (cross-cultural — K reads as 'pointy' across languages).
e.g. Kodak · Kindle · Krispy Kreme · Klarna · Klaviyo

Maternal, warm, hummed
M is the first sound a baby makes. Mama. Mira. Mantle. The most universally warm letter. Used for health, hospitality, family brands.
e.g. Microsoft · McDonald's · Mira · Mantle · Marriott
Deep, you, communal
U is communal — Uber, YouTube, Yum!. Also reads as 'you' in product brands (Unsplash, Udemy).

How we check. Step 1 (client-side): POST /api/check
with kaimukus.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=kaimukus.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.
