In 2026 it is often the last step before launch. Domain Name Wire publisher **Andrew Allemann** looked at the 27 domains he had sold by mid-September 2026 and found that by 1 October **22 of them, four in five, were already live websites** or forwarded to one. ## A clear change from earlier years For the names he sold in 2024 and 2025, **fewer than half had been developed**, even though their buyers had much more time. His explanation: a few years ago a complex site needed a developer or months of coding. Now one person with AI tools can build it in days, sometimes hours, a trend often called vibe coding. When building is that easy, the domain name becomes the starting gun, and demand for good names rises with it. ## Why this is good news for .ai names - **More launches, more demand.** Every person who can now build an app is a potential buyer of a name. - **AI products want AI names.** Many of the new sites are AI tools themselves, and .ai is their natural address. - **Names get used, not parked.** A name that turns into a live product immediately is worth more to its buyer from day one.
