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.
resilience, abrasive material
Real word — earthy, determined. Compounds well: Gritify, Gritlab.
e.g. Grit (Angela Duckworth) · Gritty
English root
abstract noun ending; in Sanskrit, 'great' or 'mother'
Soft, mother-feeling suffix. Lands warm.
e.g. Figma · Asma · Karma
Latin / suffix root

Small, precise, individual
I is the smallest character on the keyboard. Used for personal/lightweight brands (Instagram, iPhone). Apple's i-prefix is the modern naming canon. Front-vowel I makes things feel sharp and small.
e.g. iPhone · Instagram · Intel · Imgur
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
Bright, technological, small/precise
E reads as 'electronic' to a generation raised on e-commerce. eBay, Etsy, Excel. Front vowels make things feel small and quick.
e.g. eBay · Etsy · Excel · Edison · Equinox

First-letter feeling
G-onset: Generative, grounded, growth
G has weight without aggression. Google's double-G is famously childish-fun and warm. Glossier slips on the G; Granola buries it. Pairs well with -oo for bouba roundness.
Examples: Google · Glossier · Granola · GitHub · Genesis

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