Building the World's Fastest Domain Intelligence Engine

🎯 Our Mission

In traditional domain exploration, researching whether a keyword, brand, or phrase exists across generic and country-code top-level domains has been slow and fractured. WHOIS registries throttle queries, registrar frontends steer users toward preferred affiliate extensions, and domain investors lack instant insight into what is actually registered across the globe.

Dompus was engineered to eliminate these bottlenecks. We ingest authoritative zone files, registrar streams, and public auction records into a unified, high-performance database, enabling researchers, cybersecurity teams, domainers, and brand protectors to uncover domain footprints in milliseconds.

⚡ High-Performance Architecture

Under the hood, Dompus is engineered from scratch for sheer speed and resilience:

• ClickHouse Columnar Database: Our primary storage engine compresses billions of records into columnar partitions, allowing high-concurrency aggregation and filtering at speeds unmatched by traditional relational databases.
• Inverted N-Gram Substring Indexing: Unlike standard prefix-only lookups, Dompus supports full substring matching (contains, exact, starts-with, and ends-with modes), allowing you to discover variations, compound terms, and typo-squats anywhere within a Second-Level Domain (SLD).
• Compiled Go Backend & Instant Micro-Caching: Our server core is written in Go, utilizing zero-copy buffer pools and in-memory caching to serve queries in under 15 milliseconds.
• Global Edge CDN: Cached results and static assets are distributed via Cloudflare's global edge network, guaranteeing minimal latency regardless of your geographic location.

📊 Data Integrity & Transparency

We believe high-quality research requires trustworthy data sources. Our data pipeline is maintained through systematic synchronization with:

• Authoritative Registry Zone Files: Direct daily zone syncs from Verisign (.com, .net), Public Interest Registry (.org), Afilias (.info), and over 1,400 new gTLDs and ccTLD registry operators.
• Historical Domain Sales Archives: Publicly reported aftermarket transactions from verified auction venues (Sedo, GoDaddy Auctions, NameJet, DropCatch, Dynadot) to assist in domain valuation research.
• Strict Anonymization: We do not index private personal WHOIS information (such as personal phone numbers or street addresses). Our index focuses strictly on technical domain names, TLD presence, DNS status, and historical sales prices.

👥 Who Uses Dompus?

Dompus supports thousands of daily searches across diverse digital professions:

• Domain Investors & Flippers: Identifying portfolio opportunities, evaluating historical sales comparables, and analyzing registration density across multiple extensions.
• Brand Protection & Legal Specialists: Monitoring trademarks, discovering potential trademark infringements, and spotting lookalike phishing domains before abuse occurs.
• Threat Intelligence & Infosec Researchers: Tracking newly observed domains (NOD) and discovering malicious infrastructure clusters.
• Entrepreneurs & Marketers: Brainstorming brandable names and checking cross-TLD availability across 1,500+ extensions simultaneously.
