What our research says

Looka

A fast way for a new business to land a usable mark and matching collateral, as long as you accept that the cheap package hands over a flat image you cannot resize.

Pros

  • Preview across cards, signage and social profiles before spending anything
  • Vector files and full ownership arrive with the $65 package
  • Brand Kit turns a single logo into several hundred ready-made templates

Cons

  • The cheapest package is a raster file only — no vectors, no clean resizing
  • Continued brand kit access is a subscription rather than a purchase
  • Results are recognisably generated and overlap between customers
  • No API, and no way to hand a designer editable sources

Namefiniti

Namefiniti solves one specific step of starting a business — naming it and checking whether the domain is free — without asking for an account or payment. It only generates names and checks domains; it does not handle trademark search, logo design, or the entity-formation paperwork that follows.

Pros

  • Fully free with no account, credit card, or trial limit stated
  • Checks three domain extensions (.com, .io, .ai) automatically per name
  • Lets you export saved favorites as CSV or JSON for later use

Cons

  • No trademark, business-registry, or existing-brand conflict check
  • No company or contact information published on the site

Choose Namefiniti if you need
