Dharmesh Shah Open to Selling Agent.com

Dharmesh Shah is the Founder of Agent.ai, a platform that helps people discover and utilize AI agents for a wide variety of tasks. Dharmesh also owns the high value Agent.com domain name, which is not yet being used. With the rapid emergence of AI agents and agentic tools, I think Agent.com is one of the most highly valued domain names right now.

In a LinkedIn post (embedded below) discussing the recent $70 million sale of AI.com, Dharmesh mentioned that he would consider selling Agent.com. Having acquired and sold tens of millions worth of domain names (Chat.com, Connect.com, Prompt.com, You.ai, Playground.com, OS.ai, and many more), Dharmesh understands the immense value an exceptional domain name can bring to a business.

AJ Has the Pokémon Card and Anthony has the Domain Name

AJ Scaramucci made the news last week when he spent more than $16 million to acquire a Pokémon card in auction. It’s apparently a rare graded card that was previously owned by Logan Paul. It was the largest amount ever spent on a trading card in an auction, according to Guinness World Records.

While AJ might now own this special Pokémon card, his father, Anthony Scaramucci, owns a fantastic domain name via his SkyBridge Capital investment firm. In fact, about ten years ago, I exchanged some emails with Anthony about domain names.

Emma Stone Stars in Squarespace Super Bowl LX Ad

Academy Award-winning actress Emma Stone is the star of the 2026 Squarespace Super Bowl commercial. In the commercial, Emma attempts to register EmmaStone.com and deals with the frustration of finding it already registered.

It’s nice to see another domain name focused Super Bowl commercial from Squarespace. I am sure this will be relatable to many of the people who are watching the Patriots beat the Seahawks on Sunday.

Bodis to Cease Operating on January 31

Bodis has long been a pay per click parking service provider. The company allowed domain investor to monetize their domain names with PPC parking links. Google recently shut down its service that placed ads (via PPC partners) on parked domain names. As a result, PPC parking took a major hit. By and large, PPC revenues have been dwindling over the years, so that was pretty much the deathblow.

Would You Trust AI Tools to Backorder / Bid on Domain Names?

I currently use AI to supplement my daily domain name research. I do all of the work on my own, and I follow that with some manual prompting to help me uncover domain names that are pending delete or coming up for expiry auction that I may have overlooked.

At some point, I suspect I will use tools that are automated. Instead of plugging in the data and adding prompts to find domain names, this will be done by AI and the domain names will be shown to me without any of my own involvement.
