status: held

A held name and five directions, one of them open.

xavriqon.com is registered and held for a project that has not launched. This page says what we are studying and nothing more.

Xavriqon is a small project office at 152 Oak Lane in Austin, Texas. We hold a rare domain name for a project that is still on paper, and we list the directions it could take with the status each one actually has today. The one direction open for work right now is naming and rare-domain consultation: a written assessment of a name you are about to commit to, from people who chose and registered a seven-letter invented word themselves. No prices are published. Scope and fee are quoted in writing after one call.

Directions without promises

What a rare domain name project looks like before it launches

Four plain answers to the questions most letters ask first. What is held, what is being studied, what we turn down, and what happens to your letter once it reaches the drawer.

  1. Cream index cards with large hand-inked numerals laid out on an oak table

    What is held

    One name. xavriqon.com, registered and renewed by this office. Seven letters, two vowels, no dictionary meaning. That is the whole reason we registered it: a word that belongs to nobody yet can be made to mean one thing.

    The name is not parked with an advertising page and it is not listed on any marketplace. It points here, to a page that says plainly what it is for.

  2. Worn wooden letterpress numerals in a type case

    What is studied

    Five directions are listed. One is open. The other four have no date, and we will not invent one to fill the gap.

    Publishing and small tools are in study, which means there is paper on the table and no product. Research is parked. Austin partnerships are listening. Naming is open because holding an invented name is the one thing this office knows first-hand, and it is the work we can put in writing for someone else today.

  3. Kraft envelopes tied with string on a limestone windowsill

    What is refused

    The domain is not for sale. Offers get a one-line reply saying so, and a second offer gets no reply at all.

    We also do not broker other people's names or run a mailing list. A holding page that collects addresses for a launch it cannot date is the most common thing we see on rare domains, and it is exactly the habit this one avoids.

  4. Pale limestone wall and dark wood door of a small office suite in Austin

    How letters are handled

    Every inquiry arrives as a written letter through the form or by email to [email protected]. Someone at the Oak Lane suite reads it, sorts it by direction, and answers within three business days as a working rule, not a guarantee.

    Letters about a parked direction are kept on file and not answered. If you are asking about your personal data, use the request form. It has its own clock: 45 days under Texas law.

The open direction: naming consultation in Austin

If you are about to put money behind a short invented name, a written second opinion costs less than a rebrand. That is the only paid work this office takes on today.

What you get

A written assessment

One call, then a document on the name you propose: how it survives being spelled over the phone, how strangers say it aloud, which existing names it collides with, and what the domain situation looks like. Trademark questions are written down and handed to your own attorney.

What it costs

Quoted in writing

No published price. The fee depends on how many candidate names you bring and whether the domain question involves an existing registrant. You get the figure in USD by email after the first call, and nothing is owed before you agree to it.

What it is not

Not brokerage, not legal advice

We do not buy, sell or negotiate domains for you, and we do not give trademark opinions. If either of those is what you need, the naming page says who to ask instead.

What we will not do

Four letters we answer with one line

Saying no early saves both sides a week of email. These are the requests that arrive most often on a held domain, and the answers do not change.

  1. 01 Sell the domain

    xavriqon.com is held for our own project. We do not take offers, counteroffers or "just name a number" letters. You get one reply, and it says the same thing this line does.

  2. 02 Broker names

    We will not approach another registrant on your behalf or take a commission on a transfer. Naming consultation stops at the written assessment. If the domain you want is taken, we tell you what we found and you decide.

  3. 03 Announce a launch date

    No countdown, no "launching this spring". A direction gets a date when the work exists to back it. Until then the status label is the whole answer.

  4. 04 Add you to a mailing list

    There is no newsletter and no waitlist. Your address is used to answer your letter and kept for 24 months under the privacy policy, then deleted.

Correspondence
