Frequently asked questions

Everything about accounts, pricing, and how the appraisal works.

How does MobiName value a domain?+

The Appraiser splits the name into dictionary words, matches each against a database of 43,000+ real recorded sales, and computes price statistics and per-word liquidity. For a full investment verdict — buy / watch / pass with an acquisition cost and resale range — use the AI Analysis tool.

Is it free?+

Every tool on the site is free — WHOIS, the domain generator, expired-name hunting and the Sales stats explorer. The Appraiser is free for members too: one appraisal run per day, showing up to 20 results with 10 comparables each (it renews every 24 hours). Upgrade to Pro for unlimited runs, more results and comparables, automatic segmentation, and AI Analysis.

What is AI Analysis and how much does it cost?+

AI Analysis is our deepest tool: a professional domain investor model reads the comparable sales and issues a buy / watch / pass verdict with acquisition cost, resale range, expected multiple and risks. It is a Pro feature — analyze up to 10 domains per day on Pro, or 50 per day on Business.

Do I need an account?+

The Appraiser is available to signed-in members only, and AI Analysis requires a Pro plan. Creating a free account takes a minute; you'll verify your email and you're in.

What's the difference between plans and credit packs?+

Pro and Business are monthly subscriptions — best for steady use. Credit packs are one-time purchases of extra appraisal credits that never expire — a handy top-up once your daily allowance is spent.

How do I pay?+

All payments are handled securely through PayPal — both subscriptions and one-time credit packs. You can pay with your PayPal balance or any card PayPal accepts.

Are the appraisals financial advice?+

No. MobiName produces data-driven estimates to inform your own judgment. They are not offers, guarantees, or financial advice. Always do your own due diligence before buying or selling.

Where does the sales data come from, and is it safe?+

Our comparable-sales dataset is compiled from public domain-sale records and kept in a private database — never a downloadable public file — so it can't be scraped from the site.

Can I appraise many domains at once?+

Yes. Paste a list, apply filters (match level, word count, length, per-word liquidity), and copy your shortlist. Batch size limits depend on your plan.
