# account.name

account.name is a free name-availability checker. One search shows whether a
name is free as a domain (across .com, .ie, .io and more) and as a handle across
27 social and developer platforms at the same time. Covered platforms include
Instagram, X, TikTok, YouTube, Bluesky, GitHub, GitLab, npm and PyPI.

## What it does
- Checks domain availability live via RDAP/WHOIS.
- Checks social, creator and developer handle availability in one query.
- Reports an honest "couldn't verify" instead of guessing when a platform blocks
  automated checks. It never reports a taken handle as available.
- Optional free monitoring: alerts you when a watched domain or handle frees up
  or gets taken.

## How to check a name
Visit https://account.name/{name}, for example https://account.name/lumen, to see
the full domain and handle availability picture for that name.
