The domain story

  • 1The founders' own registration, by the look of it. The name was registered in July 2022, around when the company was starting, which suggests it was registered new rather than bought from someone else.
  • 2It's paid up until July 2034, nearly eight years ahead, the second-longest renewal in this directory so far.
  • 3A busy company domain. Sixteen outside services have been verified on it, from Slack and Notion to Stripe, a sign it's used for company email and tools as well as the product.
