# Check which domains are free across .com, .io, .ai and more

**Use case:** 

Paste your name ideas and get back, for every extension, whether the domain is free, taken or reserved. Taken domains show registrar, registration date and expiry date, so you can spot names about to drop. Name variations (get, try, use, app, hq, labs, ly) are switched on, and only free domains are returned. Edit the names and extensions to your own list.

## Input

```json
{
  "names": [
    "acme",
    "northwind",
    "blue fox labs"
  ],
  "tlds": [
    "com",
    "io",
    "ai",
    "co"
  ],
  "generateVariations": true,
  "includeDnsCheck": false,
  "onlyAvailable": true
}
```

## Output

```json
{
  "domain": {
    "label": "Domain",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "status": {
    "label": "Status",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "isAvailable": {
    "label": "Available",
    "format": "boolean"
  },
  "registrar": {
    "label": "Registrar",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "registeredAt": {
    "label": "Registered on",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "expiresAt": {
    "label": "Expires on",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "daysUntilExpiry": {
    "label": "Days until expiry",
    "format": "number"
  },
  "checkedVia": {
    "label": "Checked via",
    "format": "string"
  }
}
```

## How it works

### 2. Start the "Check which domains are free across .com, .io, .ai and more" task

The Domain Availability Checker 🌐 (bulk .com/.io/.ai + WHOIS) Actor will start running based on the input automatically. You can also change all the input fields, like names or domains, extensions, and more, to match your specific use case.

### 3. Receive the "Check which domains are free across .com, .io, .ai and more" output

Monitor the progress in real time. You will be notified as soon as your dataset is complete and ready for review. Each result includes data such as domain, status, available, and more.

### 4. Integrate into your workflow

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [Domain Availability Checker 🌐 (bulk .com/.io/.ai + WHOIS)](https://apify.com/tagadanar/domain-availability-checker.md) with a specific input configuration. Visit the [Actor detail page](https://apify.com/tagadanar/domain-availability-checker.md) to learn more, explore other use cases, and run it yourself.


## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/tagadanar/domain-availability-checker.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
