DomainSafe ingests the authoritative .com zone file every day through ICANN CZDS. New registrations matching your watchlist surface in hours. Strategic acquisition targets surface alongside them. One operator. One retainer.
Most vendors run one. The big platforms run two and bundle pricing in the dark. We run all three on a transparent retainer with one accountable person.
Zone-file ingest, AI-scored detection, evidence and OSINT prepared for client-led enforcement. Catch threats in hours and act before the phishing site goes live.
The right generic domain in your category is a moat your competitors cannot replicate. We find it, score it, and close it.
Buy-side and sell-side execution. End-user buyer identification, valuation, escrow and clean registrar-to-registrar transfer.
Every competitor in this category is a logo. DomainSafe is a person. The story below is in his words.
Domains caught my eye in 2008. I started by buying, hand-registering, and building sites on them. The early years were a tuition in monetization, valuation, and patience.
That curiosity turned into operations. I helped clients close 6-figure domain acquisitions. I organized and catalogued portfolios of thousands of names, my own and other people's. I built and ran NameLiquidate.com, launched publicly with help from the domaining community that taught me how this market actually works. I worked on the registrar side. I learned the expiration process from the inside, the rhythm of how a name moves from registered to expired to deleted to re-registered.
Eighteen years later, what I know is mostly economics and behavior. What domains cost. What they are worth. How allocations get decided in a market most outsiders never see. How a seller frames an inbound inquiry. How a buyer can speak the seller's language so the conversation moves toward a deal instead of toward a panel.
Most disputes that escalate to UDRP could have been resolved in conversation. The cases that go to arbitration are the ones where neither side spoke the other's language. The work I do at DomainSafe begins with that lesson and ends with the evidence, OSINT, and case planning a client needs if conversation breaks down.
DomainSafe is what I built with the years and the relationships. I rebuilt my workflow around AI so a single operator can do this work at scale. Detection, scoring, drafting, and outreach all run on AI now. The judgment calls, the relationships, and the conversations that close deals stay with me.
The full pipeline runs every day. Detection, classification, enforcement drafting, and acquisition execution are AI-first with operator review at the gates that matter.
Daily CZDS pull of the .com zone file. 160 million records diffed against the prior day to surface new registrations.
Every new registration matching your watchlist gets an AI-scored risk rating against registrant pattern, DNS, content, and historical abuse.
High-risk hits route into AI-prepared UDRP evidence packets, OSINT research, takedown requests, and C&D drafts. You or your IP counsel review every claim and submit. The same pipeline routes acquisition candidates.
Enforcement resolution, acquisition closing, or sell-side brokerage. Court-admissible evidence locker maintained throughout.
Every retainer client receives an operator-reviewed weekly brief plus same-day flags for high-risk hits. Below is an example of what a single-day brief looks like, redacted and reformatted.
An honest read on how we differ from the incumbents. We tell you when the other vendor is the right answer. We tell you when we are.
We publish the structure because the incumbents do not. Final pricing scales to portfolio size and stream mix. Acquisition is a success fee priced separately so monitoring spend stays predictable.
Quick answers to what brand counsel, security leads, and founders ask before booking the first call.
ICANN's Centralized Zone Data Service grants approved access to the authoritative .com zone file, refreshed daily. We ingest it and surface new registrations matching your watchlist within hours of registration. We work directly from the authoritative source while most competitors aggregate from third-party feeds or scrape WHOIS.
Yes. DomainSafe is registrar-agnostic by design. You keep your portfolio where it lives. We monitor, enforce, and acquire from the outside, alongside whatever registrar you already trust.
Retainer-based, scaled to portfolio size and stream mix. Acquisition is success-fee priced separately. No bundled-takedown surprise charges, no analyst-hour billing, no per-takedown metering.
Hours from detection to triage. UDRP evidence, OSINT research, and case planning materials prepared within 48 hours of your go-decision, ready for your review and submission. Phishing takedown median resolution is measured in hours through registrar and host abuse channels.
We run parallel for 30 days. If our zone-file ingest does not surface materially more relevant signal than your current tool, you do not switch. We have not had a parallel-run client choose to stay with WHOIS-based monitoring.
We focus on the domain surface where our CZDS edge applies. For social, marketplace, and app-store enforcement, we partner with the right specialists rather than pretend to run a full multi-channel platform in-house.
The operator walks your domain portfolio with you in real time, surfacing the gaps in your current monitoring with concrete next steps.
