Startup Name Generator MCP

Connect any MCP client (Claude, Cursor, or your own agent) to Startup Name Generator: generate startup names whose .com is available right now (checked live), then screen the one you pick against the US (USPTO) and EU (EUIPO) trademark registers.

Any model can suggest a name. The hard part, the part that actually protects you, is verifying the .com is free and the trademark is clear before you commit a company to a name. That is what these tools do.

Tools

• generate_names — brandable names whose .com is available, each checked live against domain records.

• check_domain — authoritative .com availability for a single name (via RDAP).

• screen_trademark — a US plus EU registry knockout search with exact, phonetic, and fuzzy matching, scored by Nice class. Not legal advice.

• score_name — a 0 to 100 defensibility score from the domain and trademark signal.

Quick start

1. Get a free API key at startupnamegenerator.com/mcp.

2. Add it to your MCP client.

Claude Desktop / Cursor / Windsurf (stdio)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "startupnamegenerator": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "startupnamegenerator-mcp"],
      "env": { "STARTUPNAMEGENERATOR_API_KEY": "your_key_here" }
    }
  }
}

Hosted (Streamable HTTP), direct

If your client speaks Streamable HTTP, point it straight at the server with a Bearer token, no npm needed:

URL:    https://startupnamegenerator.com/api/mcp
Header: Authorization: Bearer your_key_here

This package is a thin convenience launcher: it bridges your client to that hosted endpoint via mcp-remote. The name, domain, and trademark engine runs server-side.

Pricing

Generating names and checking .com availability are free. The trademark Name Check is free, one a day; Pro and Ultimate raise the monthly allowance. See startupnamegenerator.com/pricing.
