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.
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
Bold, blunt, declarative
B explodes from the lips. It commits. BlackBerry pairs the bold B with a homely real-word (berry) and the multiplier is the surprise. Brex doubles down — B + X both at the edges. Bumble takes B and makes it cuddly.
e.g. BlackBerry · Brex · Bolt · Bumble · Block
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
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

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