Lobby Domains offers on-device AI domain generation and RDAP checks

Summary

Lobby Domains is a free browser tool for generating domain-name ideas and checking their registry status. Users describe a business, side project, or product, select up to eight extensions, choose a naming style, and set constraints such as required or excluded words, maximum length, hyphens, and numbers. In a supported desktop version of Chrome, the site uses built-in AI on the device to create names; the browser may download its model the first time the feature is enabled. The service checks each candidate through RDAP as results arrive and can also check existing domains directly without using AI. Users can request different numbers of available ideas, stop a search, explore variations such as shorter or easier-to-spell names, rescue a registered name, star candidates, compare up to four names, and export a shortlist as CSV or JSON. The site says an “unregistered” result is only a registry not-found response and does not guarantee that a domain can be purchased, because reserved, premium, restricted, unknown, or failed checks may still prevent registration. Generation and checking are free, and no account or API key is required; Lobby Domains does not sell or register domains. Searches can be shared through URLs containing the brief, settings, available names, and check times, while optional saves use browser local storage and history rather than an account or cloud sync. The site says it has no application backend, analytics, or account database, but registries receive queried domains and the user’s IP address, and anyone with a shared link can read the included search fields. Domain registration status can change, so restored results should be rechecked before a decision.
