Outputs highlight statuses, risks, records, and next actions instead of raw provider noise.
Automate the winning workflow
Use the request and response examples to turn a one-off check into an API call or recipe.

AI Domain Suggestions
Consistent usernames across platforms strengthen brand identity, make you easier to find, and prevent brand confusion or impersonation. Securing your handle on all platforms early is crucial for brand protection.
Check Handles
We check platform APIs and public profile endpoints in real-time. Accuracy is high but some platforms may have restrictions. A "taken" status means the username exists; "available" means it's free to register.
