Social username availability checker
Check whether your brand name is free as a username across the platforms that matter. GitHub is verified live; social profiles are one click away to confirm.
Frequently asked questions
- How does the username checker work?
- GitHub is checked live via its public API, so we can tell you reliably whether a username is free or taken. The major social networks block automated availability checks and prohibit scraping, so for X, Instagram, TikTok and others we give you a one-click link to each profile to confirm instantly and accurately.
- Why not auto-check Instagram, X, and TikTok?
- Those platforms actively block automated requests and their terms forbid scraping, which makes any automated 'available/taken' result unreliable. A direct profile link is faster and always correct — if the page loads, it's taken; if it 404s, it's likely free.
- Should my username match my domain?
- Ideally yes. A consistent handle across your domain and social platforms makes your brand easier to find and looks more professional. Use our domain generator to find a matching available domain.
