Domain Availability Checker
Check a domain name across major TLDs against authoritative RDAP servers — a missing record means likely available. TLDs without RDAP fall back to a DNS heuristic. Always confirm with a registrar before purchasing. Uses cloud-based processing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which TLDs does it check?
Major TLDs including .com, .net, .org, .io, .dev, .co, .app, and more. The checker queries DNS records to determine if a domain is registered or available.
How accurate are the results?
RDAP answers are authoritative: a record means registered, a missing record means likely available (premium/reserved names can still surprise you). Where a TLD has no RDAP, the tool falls back to DNS queries — weaker signal. Always verify with a registrar before purchasing.
Can I check multiple domains at once?
Yes. Enter a base name and the tool checks it across all supported TLDs simultaneously, showing availability status for each extension in a single table.
Does it suggest alternative names?
Yes — after a check, one click tests 6 variants (get-, -hq, -app, try-, -ly, the-) on .com through the same RDAP-first pipeline. Listed alternatives are checked verdicts, not guesses.
Is the lookup data stored?
We store no search history. But the checks themselves are DNS-over-HTTPS queries to Google's public DNS resolver, so queried names are visible to that third party — same as any DNS lookup.
Exactly which TLDs are checked, and how?
All 10 in one run: .com, .net, .org, .io, .dev, .app, .co, .me, .tools, .xyz — RDAP first per name, falling back to DNS A plus MX lookups (a mail-only domain still counts as registered). Each lookup is capped at 10 seconds.
