.ai
A country-code extension in our tech group, run by Government of Anguilla. £99.99 for the first year, £99.99 a year to keep, £999.90 over ten years — transfers in cost £99.99.
The renewal is close to the first-year price, so a short term costs you nothing in the long run.
.ai facts
The .ai extension is a country-code extension operated by Government of Anguilla, in the root since 1995. Registration is £99.99 for the first year and £99.99 a year after that, which comes to £999.90 if you hold it for a decade. Anyone may register one.
Why people choose it
It reads clearly, ordinary words are still findable, and the renewal is printed beside the intro price rather than buried in the terms. Pricing stays level year to year, so a short term costs you nothing over time.
Typical uses
Software products, developer tools and technical teams.

.ai questions, answered
Who can register a .ai domain?
Anyone, anywhere. Two-year minimum term at the registry.
What does .ai cost to keep?
First year £99.99, renewals £99.99 a year, and £999.90 for ten years in total. The flat renewal means a one-year term costs you nothing extra over time.
Can I move a .ai domain to URSY later?
Yes. A transfer costs £99.99 and, where the registry allows it, adds a year to the expiry date. Your DNS records travel with the domain so nothing goes offline.
Does .ai support international characters?
Support is limited on this extension. Run the name through the punycode tool first; if the script is not permitted the tool says so before you try to buy.
Is WHOIS privacy included?
Yes, free for as long as you hold the domain, on every extension that permits it. Your name and address are replaced by a privacy contact in the public record.
