Tool of DomainKits

Check domain availability with pricing. Final validation before registration. Best practices: - Input must be a fully qualified domain name including TLD (e.g., 'example.com', not just 'example'). - If status='available': present reg_url and price clearly. If price is significantly higher than standard registration (~$10-15 for .com), flag it as a premium/reserved domain — the registry is charging a premium price. - If status='registered': state clearly the domain is taken. Do not automatically suggest alternatives — let the user decide if they want to explore other options. - If status='expiring': domain is in the expiration pipeline — can be backordered via reg_url, not directly registered. - If status='reserved': registry-reserved domain — not available for registration. - If status='unknown': check was inconclusive — do not assume available or unavailable. - For batch checking multiple domains, use bulk_available instead — it checks up to 10 at once. - This tool is the definitive availability check. Other tools (tld_check, deleted, expired) may show signals of availability, but only this tool or bulk_available confirms registrability and returns actual pricing. - Disclose affiliate links when aff=true.
