.verified
Is .verified a real TLD? Who’s applying to run it?
- Registered Agents Inc
A niche TLD for identity-verification providers, brand-protection teams, and marketers of "verified" credentials or seller programs who want the word itself as a trust badge.

One of six 2026-round applications Registered Agents Inc announced in its own press release. Verification is the through-line of the portfolio.
The 2012 applications making the most similar bet. Chosen by AI from every string in that round, without being told what happened to any of them.
Same bet: a generic trust-assertion word whose entire value comes from the registry gating who may hold it, so the string functions as a credential badge rather than a category label.
Same bet: a bare English status adjective sold as an assurance claim about the registrant, worthless as a name unless someone vets and enforces the claim behind it.
Same shape — an unqualified assurance adjective that any organization would bolt onto its primary identity — but it asserts an outcome rather than an attested, checkable status, so the vetting burden is fuzzier.
