# check_company_name_availability

Checks whether a proposed company or brand name is available as a US trademark and as a domain across common TLDs (.com, .io, .co, .net, .ai, .app). Call this whenever the user proposes or evaluates a name. It is informational only and does not read or change any formation; a partial failure still returns useful results for the side that succeeded.
