Targeting active .com/.ai keywords.
I wanted to share a specific strategy I've been analyzing regarding the emerging SuperIntelligence (SI) narrative and how to leverage the .si ccTLD (Slovenia).
With .ai prices feeling heavily saturated and picked over, the transition from AI to ASI (Artificial Superintelligence) opens up a brand-new branding angle.
The Strategy: Matching Active .com/ .ai Keywords
The Bull Case:
The UDRP Elephant in the Room
We all know the risks of ccTLD investing when it comes to active businesses. If you try to hand-register a matching .sifor an established brand name (e.g., Midjourney.si), you’re practically begging for a UDRP or a direct takedown from Register.si under bad faith.
How to safely execute this: The strategy only works safely with high-quality, generic tech/science keywords.
Think words like Cognitive, Core, Grid, Synapse, Liquid.
If the company on the .com is using a purely generic dictionary word, your UDRP risk drops significantly, while your liquidation potential to a future ASI startup skyrockets.
At current registration costs ($15-$30/year depending on registrar), the risk-to-reward ratio on solid tech generics feels incredibly asymmetric.
What are your thoughts on .si as a "SuperIntelligence" play?
Are any of you actively tracking .com/.ai developments to find .si drops or hand-regs, or do you think the extension is too niche to achieve true .ai-level breakout status?
Let’s discuss.

The Strategy: Matching Active .com/ .ai Keywords
The play here is targeting .si extensions where the identical keyword is already hosting a highly successful, active business on a .com or .ai extension.
The Bull Case:
- Validated Keywords: By picking terms already driving revenue on .com/.ai, you skip the guesswork. The keyword's commercial viability is already proven.
- The Upgrade Pivot: Tech companies transitioning from standard AI models to ASI will want to reflect that in their branding. .si represents a logical, prestigious upgrade.
- Corporate Defense: End-users are highly likely to acquire their matching .si lookalikes defensively to prevent phishing or confusion once "SI" becomes the dominant buzzword.
