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.
truth, certainty, trustworthiness
Builds a trust signal at the start of the name. V is the most vibrant single letter — Placek's research repeatedly puts V at the top of energy scoring. Reading 'ver' primes 'true' before the rest of the name even completes.
e.g. Verily · Verisign · Vercel · Veritas · Veracity
Latin root
Vibrant, alive, the most active letter
V is THE Placek letter. Vibrant, alive, the most active sound in English. Vercel, Volvo, Verily, Verisign, Vimeo. V-onset signals 'true / vital / vehicle'. Vercel pairs ver (Latin true) + cel (Latin swift) — every linguist choice deliberate.
e.g. Vercel · Volvo · Verily · Vimeo · Visa
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

meditation, calm clarity
Z is Placek-noisy + cross-cultural calm semantic. Tension between sound and meaning.
e.g. Zendesk · Zen · Zenly

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