Questions

Are there still .com domain names available for a tech startup?
Yes, once you join two words. We made 10,646 names for a tech startup from words like tech, soft, software and code, each joined to a plain brand word, and looked every one up at the .com registry on November 5, 2026: 79% were registered, including every name we made with app, cloud, data or tech. 2,240 were not, like foxcircuit.com, swanpixel.com, meadowcode.com and honestsync.com.
What makes a good domain name for a tech startup?
One that people can type after hearing it once. Two short words usually do it: one that says what you do (tech, soft or software) and one that gives it a character of its own. Say it out loud to someone and ask them to spell it. A .com is what most people type when they only heard the name, so it is worth a second word to get one.
How do I check whether a domain for my tech startup is still free?
Every name on this page opens a live check with the price and a link to register, because names get taken: check one before you print it anywhere. To check a name of your own, type it into the finder on our home page; it checks the name across extensions and suggests others for your idea.

How the names were made and checked

We picked 47 words of the trade (tech, soft, software, code, logic, data, pixel, byte, stack, cloud, node, sync, loop, grid, beam, bit, circuit, forge, kit, base, flow, ops, dev, app, orbit, rocket, pilot, relay, socket, kernel, cache, patch, commit, deploy, script, query, token, packet, matrix, module, engine, bolt, mesh, layer, scale, metric and shift) and joined each to a set of plain words that open or close brand names (bright, quiet, fox, harbor, lantern, wren), both ways round, and to the other words of the trade. Every name was looked up at the .com registry’s own nameservers, and every name without nameservers in the registry’s WHOIS, since a registered name can be on hold without DNS. A name that was registered and has since expired counts as free. We do not own or sell any of these names: registering one costs the registrar’s normal .com price.
