Titlesearch: a provenance trail for product names
A free, open-source desktop and MCP tool for checking domain names, inspecting existing sites, and comparing them with a product idea.
- For
- People naming a product or software project
- Worth noticing
- It labels a name “Not registered,” not “Available,” until a registrar confirms it, and exposes conflicting source answers.
Field notes
Version 0.2.4 is offered for macOS, Windows, and Linux, with command-line binaries and checksums on the release page. The site says registry records are cross-checked with registrars and warns that a missing registry record is not enough to call a domain available; users see conflicting answers. Taken-domain reports include the site's preview, connection chain, and a competition assessment. The tool is read-only, and the page explicitly says it is not a trademark search.
