Business name checker
Before you pick a name, check who already uses it. Sniffington reads the past 30 days on Reddit, Hacker News and Bluesky and tells you how many posts mean a company or product by that name, and how many mean something else.
Public posts only. No sign-up.
A name full of namesakes is a name nobody can find. Let's check.
About the business name checker
Does this check trademarks or domains?
No. It shows how the name is used in public posts. Check trademarks and domains separately before you commit.
Why does noise matter?
If most posts using a name mean something else, people searching for you find the something else first, and so does every alert tool. Sniffington sorts that out after launch; this tells you before.
How many checks can I run?
Three a day, shared with the other namesake checks on the site.
