Services

You have a shortlist. Find out which names survive

Dotly.ai screening, linguistic review and trademark exposure applied to names you have already generated yourself or with an agency.

Naming intelligence

Screening as a standalone service

Plenty of teams can produce a shortlist. Far fewer can tell you which of those names will quietly cost them money for the next decade.

Send us the names you are considering. We run them through the same forty screens we apply to our own candidates and give you a written verdict on each: what it does well, what it will cost you, and whether the dot behind it is realistically gettable.

Good fit if

You already have names, but not confidence

  • An agency delivered a shortlist.

    And nobody has checked availability properly.

  • A founder has a favourite.

    And you need an evidence-based second opinion.

  • You are naming at portfolio scale.

    And need a repeatable screen.

  • Legal is nervous.

    And you want exposure mapped before counsel bills hours.

What is included

What you get back

  • Human-tested spelling under dictation across four English accents, plus stress and friction analysis.

  • Meaning and near-meaning across twelve language groups, including the homophones nobody checks.

  • Class collisions and adjacent marks summarised in plain language for your counsel.

  • Live status on major and regional dots, with valuation ranges where a name is held.

  • Matching social handles on the platforms that matter to your audience.

  • Not a data dump. A recommendation, with the reasoning you can take to a board.
