DNSai

AI Domain Search

Runs a live DNS lookup. Want registration and ownership details instead? Use the WHOIS lookup.

Every AI domain — from a two-letter .ai to openai.com — publishes its infrastructure in public DNS. This page is the starting point for exploring it: search any domain above to pull its live records, or run a WHOIS lookup for registration and ownership details. (Shopping for an unregistered .ai name? A registrar is the right tool for that — once a domain exists, this is where you see what it actually runs.)

What DNS Reveals About an AI Domain

.ai is the country-code domain of Anguilla, open to registrants worldwide — which is why it has become the default home of the AI industry. For any registered AI domain, public DNS answers three questions:

  1. What it runs — a DNS record lookup reveals hosting, mail provider, CDN, and the SaaS vendors verified in TXT records.
  2. How its email is secured — SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records show whether the domain can be spoofed and who is authorized to send as it.
  3. Who registered it, and when — a WHOIS lookup shows the registrar, creation date, and name servers.

One thing DNS can't do well is availability shopping — if you're looking to buy an unregistered .ai name, a domain registrar checks the registry in real time and handles the purchase (expect two-year minimum terms and higher prices than .com). DNSai picks up from the moment a domain is live.

Why AI Companies Choose .ai Domains

A .ai domain signals the product category in the name itself, and short .com equivalents are long gone. That has made the extension the standard for AI startups — and made AI domain name search a routine first step when founding a company. The trade-offs: higher registration cost, two-year terms, and heavy competition for dictionary words.

Once a name is registered, treat it like infrastructure: publish SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records before the first email leaves the domain. Our SPF, DKIM & DMARC guide covers the setup end to end.

AI Domain Search FAQ

How do I search for a .ai domain?

Enter the .ai domain in the search box above to pull its live DNS records — A, AAAA, MX, TXT, SPF, DKIM, and DMARC — and see at a glance where it's hosted and who handles its mail. For registration details like the registrar and creation date, run a WHOIS lookup on the same name.

What is the .ai domain extension?

.ai is the country-code top-level domain of Anguilla, a British Overseas Territory in the Caribbean. Because the letters spell "AI", it has become the de facto extension for artificial-intelligence companies and products worldwide, and registrations are open to anyone — no residency requirement.

Can I check if an AI domain is available here?

A WHOIS lookup tells you whether a name is registered — a result with a registrar and creation date means it's taken. But for availability shopping, a domain registrar is the better tool: registrars query the .ai registry in real time and handle the purchase. DNSai's strength is everything after registration — the DNS records, mail setup, and email security behind live domains.

Are .ai domains more expensive than .com domains?

Generally yes. .ai registrations typically cost several times more than a .com and are commonly sold in two-year minimum terms, with sought-after names priced at a premium on aftermarkets. Pricing varies by registrar, so compare before you buy.

Can I see the DNS records of an AI company's domain?

Yes. DNS records are public. Use the search above or DNSai's free DNS lookup to view A, AAAA, MX, TXT, SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records for any domain — including openai.com, anthropic.com, x.ai, and other AI companies — or open their DNSai company profile for a full summary.
