Changelog

August 1, 2026

A built-in assistant that works inside the app with you — plus finer control over how AI runs.

An AI assistant that reads the page you're on and can navigate the app to the right screen.
It can run your checks, refresh availability for a specific target, and co-fill the new-project wizard as you describe what you're naming.
Every action it takes is written to an audit log and can be undone, within a per-session credit budget.
Per-project AI depth, and the option to run AI on demand instead of automatically on every name.
Model fallback when you've connected your own AI key, so analysis keeps working if a provider stumbles.

July 26, 2026

Naming ideas don't only strike at a desk.

Full mobile support — check a name, score it, and add it to a project from your phone, with the whole app laid out and tested down to 390px.

July 19, 2026

Control who gets in, and move work wherever it needs to go.

Invite-only sign-up, gated behind a valid invitation — the sign-up link hides itself when it's closed.
Fully branded PowerNames sign-in and invitation emails.
Project transfers — hand a project to another team or teammate, with email notifications and a one-click accept link.
Parked-but-taken domains are now told apart from ones genuinely in use.
A domain acquirability score — how realistic it actually is to get the name.

July 13, 2026

“Taken” isn't the whole story — and you can now run analysis on your own AI account.

Domain snapshots that capture what's actually sitting on a domain today.
Sale-price detection — a parked domain that's listed for sale now shows its asking price, instead of a flat "taken."
Bring your own AI key (BYOK) — connect your own provider and choose which model powers your analysis.
Provider credentials held in an encrypted vault and managed from a new AI settings area.

May 18, 2026

Come up with names faster, and trust the domain answers more.

Brainstorm co-pilot on your project's names page — generate and riff on ideas, then drop the good ones straight into your list, without leaving the page.
A rebuilt domain-availability engine with live pricing and layered registry/DNS fallbacks, so a hiccup with one source doesn't become a wrong answer.
Substring search across your names and their notes, so long lists stay navigable.

April 1, 2026

PowerNames launches — the whole naming workflow, from “is it available?” to “is it any good?”, in one place.

Domain availability, verified against live registry data (RDAP) with a DNS fallback — so an answer is a real answer.
Social handle checks across Instagram, TikTok, and LinkedIn.
PowerScore — a weighted name score built on the SMILE/SCRATCH framework across twelve dimensions.
Deep linguistic analysis of a name's phonetics, morphology, and sound symbolism.
Side-by-side comparison to put your shortlist head to head.
Trademark & global-risk clearance to surface conflicts and cross-language pitfalls early.
A personal free tier, plus shared team workspaces.
Credit-based usage with tiered analysis depth.
A public MCP API, so agents and other tools can check and score names programmatically.
Real-time analysis — every check runs in parallel and streams in as it completes, instead of one long wait.
