NameSniper MCP
NameSniper MCP Server
NameSniper checks brand name, domain, and social handle availability across all the major social platforms, generates AI name ideas, and screens trademarks for conflicts. It also keeps watching taken usernames and alerts you the moment one frees up or drops, so you can claim a handle before anyone else. All from your AI client - Claude, Cursor, or any MCP host.
The server runs remotely at https://namesniper.pro/mcp (Streamable HTTP). Checking and alternatives are free and need no account; AI generation, trademark screening, and handle monitoring need a NameSniper API key (Pro or Business plan).
Handle monitoring
Most availability checkers give a one-time yes or no. NameSniper keeps watching: put a taken handle on watch with namesniper_watch and get notified the instant it frees up across every platform we support, so you can register it first. Every plan includes watch slots (more on paid tiers); Instagram, TikTok, and X monitoring requires a paid plan.
