Picking a name for a product is annoying. Most checkers look at five or six places — a couple of domain TLDs and the big social handles — and call it done. Then a week later you discover an active USPTO trademark, or that the npm slug is taken, or that the Reddit subreddit exists, and you have to rename.
dibbed.dev checks 28 places in parallel:
- Domains — 12 TLDs (.com, .ai, .io, .app, .dev, .co, .gg, .xyz, .so, .me, .org, .net) verified via DNS + RDAP
- App stores — Apple App Store, Google Play
- Code registries — npm, PyPI, crates.io, GitHub
- Socials — Reddit (r/ and u/), YouTube, Instagram, X (Twitter), TikTok
- Trademark & business records — live USPTO Elasticsearch search; deep links to EUIPO, Companies House (UK), and SEC EDGAR
Results are baked into the page server-side, so you can share a link and the recipient sees the exact same data. Most cached lookups complete in under 50 ms; cold lookups take 1–3 seconds while we fan out to the upstream APIs.
How we make money
When a domain is available, we link to register it through Dynadot. If you register through that link we earn an affiliate commission. The price you pay is identical to going direct. This is the entire business model — no premium tier, no ads (yet), no data resale.
What we don't do
- Store your searches on a server. "Recently checked" is in your browser's localStorage. We have no account system.
- Give legal advice. A clear USPTO check is not a guarantee of unencumbered use — different classes, common-law marks, and pending applications all matter. Treat us as a fast first-pass filter, then consult an IP attorney before committing to a name commercially.
- Resell anyone's data. The USPTO data is public-domain; we surface it live from the register and don't redistribute it.
