Startup Domain Name Advisory
Make the domain decision once. Make it right.
Choosing a startup domain name isn’t a branding exercise.
It’s a strategic decision that affects fundraising, trust, negotiation leverage, and long-term defensibility.
This advisory service exists to help founders avoid expensive naming mistakes early, before they become public, emotional, or impossible to reverse.

WHO IS THIS FOR?
This advisory is built for founders who understand that a domain name is not a cosmetic choice.
It’s for:
Startup founders at pre-seed, seed, or early traction stage. Especially those preparing for fundraising, accelerator applications, or first serious customer outreach.
Founders stuck between multiple name options
When the decision is between an exact match domain or a brandable, and the trade-offs aren’t obvious.Teams who know the current domain feels “temporary”
And don’t want that temporary decision to become an expensive permanent mistake.Startups building trust-sensitive products
B2B SaaS, fintech, infrastructure, healthcare, marketplaces, or anything that relies on credibility early.Founders who may need to acquire a domain later
And want to understand pricing reality, leverage, and timing before signaling interest publicly.
If you want a domain decision you can defend confidently to investors, customers, and your future self, this service is for you.
Who This Service Is Not For
This advisory is intentionally not designed for everyone.
It is not for:
Founders looking for the cheapest available domain
If cost alone is the decision driver, advisory won’t change that outcome.Teams expecting naming ideas or brainstorming sessions
This is not a naming contest, brand workshop, or logo-first exercise.Anyone looking for instant, automated answers
We don’t use registrar suggestions or automated appraisal scores as decision tools.Hobby projects or side experiments
If the startup itself isn’t a serious commitment yet, the domain decision shouldn’t be either.Founders who want reassurance, not judgment
This service exists to reduce risk, not validate emotional attachment to a name.
If you already know you’re going to ignore the recommendation, this service won’t be useful.
How it Works
No. This service does not generate names or run brainstorming sessions. We evaluate domain decisions, not creative concepts.
No. We do not rely on automated appraisal tools or registrar estimates. All evaluations are judgment-based and contextual, grounded in market behavior and investor psychology.
Before fundraising, accelerator applications, major marketing spend, or committing publicly to a name. The earlier the decision is evaluated, the cheaper it is to correct.
Yes. If acquisition is the right move, we assess feasibility, price realism, and negotiation risk. Acquisition itself is handled separately via BuyerAxis.
No. Domains don’t win deals. They remove unnecessary hesitation. This service reduces silent risk; it doesn’t replace execution.
Yes. We work with pre-seed through Series A startups, especially when naming decisions affect brand defensibility and future negotiations.
Then this service will tell you whether that attachment is strategic or emotional. The recommendation will be honest, not comforting.
Yes. Agencies can use this service to validate client domain decisions before launch or rebrand, and avoid fixing mistakes later.
Fully confidential. No outreach, no signaling, no public contact with domain owners unless explicitly requested.
Because this is a judgment-based advisory service, refunds are not offered once evaluation has started. If this is a concern, this service may not be a fit.
