What we shipped.
Plain-English log of changes to Namedesk. Most recent first.
2026-10-14 · Company pages carry the whole company
A company page under /stats/groups now shows what one operator page shows, for all of the company: domains under management month by month across every TLD its operators run, with the range control and the month table, and the list of those TLDs, each naming its operator. Companies with a single operator have a page too. The Stats API adds /v1/stats/groups/{slug}/months and /tlds.
The Reveal Day recap was rebuilt around the reader: the round beside 2012 measure by measure, the 2012 filers by company with every count sourced, and one line for each kind of reader.
2026-10-13 · Stats by company, and the public copy brought in line
The registry and registrar tables now open by company: Identity Digital is one row with its six operators' TLDs and names summed, GoDaddy one row across its accreditations, with a switch back to the operator or accreditation view. Every company has a page at /stats/groups/{company}, and each operator page names its company. The Stats API gains view=groups on both lists.
The TLD Radar pages were rebuilt: one figure per section instead of card after card, and the applicants of a string drawn with how much each filed across the round and what its registries run today.
Public copy fixed after an outside audit: the quick-read guide now says what the API does (1 to 10 credits a name), batches of up to 100 names are welcome, a researched name is free again only for the team that researched it, and a /v1/... path typed on namedesk.app redirects to api.namedesk.app. The FAQ is also at /faqs.md.
2026-10-07 · Reveal Day: ICANN’s list on the record
ICANN published every application in the 2026 new gTLD round at 18:00 UTC. The record now carries the list: 1,614 applications for 986 strings, each linked to ICANN's page, with the announced claims it did not hold marked abandoned. The overview reads the round in seven findings; every company has a page.
2026-10-02 · Stats API and registry pages
Domain industry statistics as JSON, free, no key: every TLD, registry operator and registrar month by month, launch phases and nightly zone counts, plus the 2026 round. Every response names its sources. Registry operators got pages of their own under /stats/registries.
2026-09-06 · One header, three tools
The navigation is now a list of tools: appraise, naming, and the 2026 TLD round. The naming tool moved from /coin to /naming; old links redirect. The activity page is now History, under your account menu with team, API keys and preferences. The banner that promoted TLD Radar above the header is gone, since the round has its own place in the header.
2026-05-10 · Quick reads, by API
Scanning candidates is not the same as analysing finalists, so the API gained a cheaper first pass. POST /v1/research-jobs/quick takes 1 to 100 names and gives each a quick read. A name judged not worth a full appraisal gets a short read and costs 1 credit. A name judged worth it gets the full appraisal and costs 10 credits, the same report a full job produces. Your wallet is charged what each name actually cost.
POST /v1/domains/{domain}/rerun forces a fresh full appraisal on one name, for example to upgrade a quick read. The existing POST /v1/research-jobs endpoint is unchanged: every name gets the full appraisal at 10 credits.
2026-05-06 · v1 public REST API
The same research, pricing, and signals you see in the dashboard, callable from your own backend. Same wallet, same data, over REST and JSON.
Eight endpoints: submit jobs, poll status, cancel + refund, read reports, read pricing, list jobs, check the wallet. Sign requests with your team's API key. Send an Idempotency-Key on any POST and a retry never charges twice.
