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.
Noisy, alert, attention-grabbing
S is what a snake does — hiss for attention. Stripe, Snap, Slack, Spotify, Sonos. The most populous brand-starter letter for that reason. Pairs with anything.
e.g. Stripe · Snapchat · Slack · Spotify · Sonos
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
Smooth, frictional, friendly
F flows. Less attention-grabbing than B or K, but warm. Facebook, FedEx, Figma — F can either soften the front (Figma) or pair with an explosive ending (FedEx).
e.g. Facebook · Figma · FedEx · Ford · Flickr
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
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
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)
Wide, welcoming, wave-like
W is the gentlest start. Wells Fargo, WhatsApp, Wikipedia, Windsurf. Often a quiet onset that lets the next syllable do the work.
e.g. WhatsApp · Wikipedia · Wells Fargo · Windsurf · Wix

Liquid, lifting, lyrical
L glides. The most liquid letter. Lyft, Linear, Lululemon, Loom. Brands that want to feel fluid or effortless start with L.
e.g. Lyft · Linear · Loom · Lululemon · Lego

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