Manual shortlist assembly
Names get collected fast, then hours go into Sheets, decks, and rewriting the reasoning for the client.
Client briefs into client-safe shortlists.
Run the brief against real one-word domains, build a shortlist with cost and risk shown, and present options you will not have to walk back in the meeting.
Sourcing is easy. Presenting is the painful part.
The hours go into formatting, rechecking, and explaining choices, and most of them are not billable.
Late surprises burn credibility
A name gets presented, the client loves it, and then the price or availability turns out to be unrealistic.
The reasoning lives in one head
Why each option made the cut is strategist memory, so reviews and revisions become non-billable archaeology.
From brief to presentable, with the facts shown.
The same sorting you do today, minus the rechecking and the manual formatting.
01
Start from the brief
Run the client brief as a search: tone, market, budget, and constraints become real filters.
02
Review each name with price, cost and risk in view
Every candidate carries ask price, status, renewal, risk flags, and TLD coverage while you sort keepers from noise.
03
Build the shortlist
Structured states and notes replace the Sheets tab. The reasoning stays attached to each name.
04
Prepare the recommendation
Review the finalists side by side on fit, cost to own, and risk before you commit to a direction.
05
Share the finalists
Send the finalists as a read-only link. Clients see the shortlist and the reasoning without an account, and never see your comparison scores.
The workflow studios actually run today.
Search, projects, shortlists, and deliverables are live. Sold as a workflow, not as a full agency OS.
PA S
Prompt search
A client brief in plain words becomes filters, keywords, and real candidates.
A project per brief
Each client brief keeps its own search logic, shortlist, and notes.
Shortlists with states
Candidate, finalist, chosen, rejected: explicit states instead of color-coded cells.
CCost to own
Ask, renewal, availability, and where to buy it on every option you show.
RRisk flags, early
Trademark check and history signals before a risky name reaches the client.
RRadars for slow mandates
Keep a saved search alive per client and review new matches as they appear.
Answer “why this one?” before the client asks.
Every option you present carries the same three answers, so the recommendation reads as method, not taste.
Fit
Word profile, tone, and demand context that connect the name back to the brief.
Cost to own
Ask, renewal, availability, and where to buy it, with same-word TLD coverage.
Risk
Trademark check and history signals, surfaced before the deck is built.
Studios run on Full Access, per strategist.
