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.
abstract noun ending; in Sanskrit, 'great' or 'mother'
Soft, mother-feeling suffix. Lands warm.
e.g. Figma · Asma · Karma
Latin / suffix root

Young, yes, asymmetric
Y is i-mutation. Lyft from lift, Bumble carries no Y but Tumblr drops the E. Y as a brand starter is rarer — usually used as a final mutation. YouTube uses Y as 'you'.
e.g. YouTube · Yelp · Yahoo! · Yeezy · Spotify (suffix)
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
Rolling, robust, ready
R conveys motion and roll. Less smooth than L (English R is more forceful). Used for action brands (Rivian, Roku, Reddit, Ralph Lauren). R also doubles as a sci-fi register (Robocop, R2D2).
e.g. Rivian · Roku · Reddit · Ralph Lauren · Revolut
to make, to transform
Modern SaaS convention. Brand-as-verb pattern. Works best with one-syllable concrete-noun roots (Shop-ify, Spot-ify).
e.g. Spotify · Shopify · Storify · Notify

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