Show HN: I made a tool for finding memorable, available domains (dreamy.domains)

2 points by io84 ↗ HN
I was sick of all the noise on domain sites trying to upsell me to premium and auction domains for small dev projects, so I built a tool that shows only available, non-premium domains.

It automatically scores and ranks options based on six metrics (spellability, pronounceability etc). By default, it suggests a wide range of "dot-something" domains, but you can restrict it to .com, .ai, .io.

The tool also learns from your likes and dislikes, helping you hone in on names that match your taste.

Would love feedback from others who have faced the same problem!

I really like this concept! I want to help if you are open to it? I am looking for design projects to take up, so I could provide you with a polished Figma design for this and in return, pay me whatever you think the design is worth. If you don't like them at all, then no pressure to pay anything! And if you do like it, it may really help with selling your vision, presenting it to get validation, showing investors, or even just to better visualise and refine the idea itself.

Great! I just made an account on bluesky, but not yet letting me send a DM. Feel free to reach out to me instead - my username is r-singh13, or send me an email at ranjit.sn@protonmail.com

Thanks for the anon comments that came in via the feedback form! I'm guessing they came from here.

I've deployed two of the suggestions:

1. don’t show unavailable (now hidden behind a button at end of list)

2. be able to specify which tlds are included

These changes are now live. The other suggestions around advanced options will take a bit more time/consideration.
