What NameCraftr does
NameCraftr uses AI to generate business name ideas from your description and checks domain availability in real time - including .com, .in, and .co.in for every suggestion. Most name generators only check .com. For an Indian business, that leaves two of the most important extensions unchecked: .co.in is the standard domain for Indian businesses and carries strong local trust signals, while .in is the shorter alternative with the same geographic credibility.
The result is a single screen where you can describe your business, generate name ideas, and immediately see which names are available across all three extensions. No switching between tools, no manually checking registrar sites after the fact.
Looking for something more specific than a general business name? The company name generator is a better fit if “company” suits your business more than “business,” the brand name generator is built for product- and brand-focused naming with trademark guidance, and the startup name generator is tuned for VC-ready names. Building specifically with AI in mind? The AI business name generator generates ideas straight from your business description.
Why domain checks matter for Indian businesses
A name available as .co.in is worth more to an India-focused business than the same name available only as .com - because Indian customers, suppliers, and search engines treat .co.in as the signal of a locally operating business. International investors and NRI customers, on the other hand, default to .com. Holding both matters.
NameCraftr runs the availability check as each suggestion is generated, so you only see names that are available to register right now - or run any name you already have in mind through the standalone domain name generator or domain name checker directly. No falling in love with a name that turns out to be taken.
What NameCraftr checks - and what it does not
NameCraftr checks domain availability across .com, .in, and .co.in. It does not check the MCA company name database, the IP India trade mark registry, or GST registration records. These are separate checks you will need to run yourself before committing to any name.
The domain check is the fastest first filter - if .co.in is taken, everything else becomes a workaround. Once you have a name that passes the domain check, the recommended next steps for Indian founders are:
- Search the MCA company name database at mca.gov.in
- Search IP India trade marks at ipindiaonline.gov.in in your relevant class
- Reserve the company name using the RUN form (Rs. 1,000, valid for 20 days) before starting incorporation through SPICe+
- Note that DPIIT-recognised startups receive a 50% concession on IP India filing fees
NameCraftr is the first step. The checks above are what turn a good name idea into a name you can actually own and protect. If you want the full generator experience built specifically around business naming, the business name generator is the same tool with a deeper how-to guide alongside it.
