NameFlow is a place to find, buy and manage domain names. You type a name you have in mind, or describe what you are building in plain English, and NameFlow shows you which domains are actually available and what they cost: the first year and every year after.
NameFlow is a domain reseller. Domains are registered through OpenProvider (Hosting Concepts B.V.), an ICANN-accredited registrar.
Searching needs no account. You sign in when you want to buy.
What you can do today
Look up a specific name
Type a name such as chillmail and NameFlow checks it on popular extensions like .com, .io, .ai, .app and .dev. Each result shows whether the domain is available, the first-year price and the renewal price. If you type a full domain such as chillmail.io, that exact domain is checked first and pinned to the top of the results.
Get name ideas from a description
Not sure what to call your project? Describe it instead, for example "an app that plans weekend hikes for beginners". NameFlow's AI writes a batch of short, brandable names, checks each one for real availability, and shows you only names you could register, with prices. It is the same search box: you do not need to switch modes.
See Using AI Name Suggestions for how this works and how to write a good description.
Compare extensions and their rules
The TLD directory lists {{TLD_COUNT_DISPLAY}} domain extensions with first-year and renewal prices. Each extension has its own page (for example /tlds/dev) with its registration rules: who is allowed to register, minimum and maximum name length, and how many years you can register for.
Learn the basics
This help center also explains the parts of owning a domain that apply wherever you register: how pricing and promotions work, what DNS records do, what nameservers are, and what happens when a domain expires.
How prices are shown
- All prices are in US dollars.
- Results show the first-year price and the renewal price separately, because they are often different.
- Promotional first-year prices are flagged PROMO so the renewal cost does not surprise you.
- Generic extensions such as
.comor.appcarry an ICANN fee of $0.20 per year, which is added at checkout.
