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.

Curious, distinctive, rare
Q is rare. Just appearing at the start of a brand creates distinctiveness. Quibi, Quartz, Quora, Quad. The Q itself is the mnemonic.
e.g. Quora · Quartz · Quibi · Quizlet
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
deep blue, sky-blue
Lexicon Branding case study — Placek cites the client's initial reaction was 'this is a dumb name'. Premium colour-as-name, ZHU consonant gives distinctive sound.
e.g. Azure (Microsoft)

First-letter feeling
O-onset: 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.
Examples: Sonos · Roku · Volvo · Otto · Onfido · Octopus

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