What we do
Your fund's name is your first LP pitch. Your portfolio founders' naming problems become your problems — every one of them will burn weeks agonizing over a domain instead of building. DomainGold takes naming and domains completely off your plate, and turns your firm's digital real estate into an asset that appreciates.
Built for the solo GP who just hung their own shingle — and priced for people who understand what a name is worth.
Fourteen services, one relationship. Pick what you need now; the rest is there when you do.
We find and secure the domain your firm deserves — not the .vc compromise, not the hyphenated fallback.
For the GP who wants LPs to take them seriously from the first email. Domain purchase price separate.
Your founders stop wasting sprint cycles on namecheap roulette. Send them to us.
For the GP whose founders keep asking "what should we name it?" Domain purchase price separate.
Naming architecture for the firm and the portfolio.
For the GP thinking two moves ahead. Retainer minimum 3 months.
Buy or sell at the top of the market, with someone who actually knows it.
For the GP chasing a name that "isn't for sale" — everything is for sale. $2,500 engagement retainer, credited on close.
Your names, managed like the assets they are.
For the GP who'd rather never think about a renewal email again. Up to 250 domains: $12,000/yr.
Know what names are worth before you negotiate.
For the GP who wants data, not vibes, at the negotiating table.
For the situations where "just buy a domain" doesn't cover it.
Buy the domain without anyone knowing it's you.
For stealth startups and the VCs backing them. Brokerage terms apply on close.
The name you want is taken. We watch it until it isn't.
For the founder obsessing over one perfect taken name. Acquisition cost separate.
90 minutes in, name and domain strategy out.
The wedge — half of these turn into full procurement engagements.
Before you wire the Series A, make sure they own the name.
Fits your diligence checklist like a glove.
One sweep. Every gap found.
Every funded startup needs this and nobody does it.
Every batch company named right, under your brand.
You're not just applying to accelerators — you're selling them.
Digital real estate as an alternative asset class.
Highest ticket, lowest volume. HNW and family offices only.
The data layer this industry never had.
Plants the flag for the Bloomberg terminal for domains.
Where the smart money goes.
Everything a new firm needs in its first year:
Separately $28,500.
One relationship. Every name your firm and portfolio will ever need:
One associate costs 3x this and can't negotiate a domain to save their life.
A note on pricing: one week of an associate's time costs more than most of this menu. If the price feels high, compare it to the cost of your founders naming things badly for a month.
Hiring DomainGold plugs you into a community most VCs never see. You're not buying a vendor — you're getting a node in the network where digital real estate actually trades.
An active meetup community of domain investors, builders, and brand strategists. Real relationships, real deal flow, real off-market names.
Founders, investors, and operators reading DomainGold Insider every month. Your firm gets in front of them.
Naming conversations turn into relationship conversations. We meet founders at their most ambitious moment — naming the company — and connect the dots.
Private sellers, fellow investors, and brokers who move names quietly. When you need a name, we know who holds it.
20 minutes. Your fund, your thesis, your naming headaches.
We map your firm's domain needs + a standing offer for your portcos.
We source, negotiate, and close. You get back to backing founders.
