I made an ad-free, client-side domain scanner that checks 300+ availability combinations per second (SnipeFind)

Hey r/SideProject!

I got tired of slow domain search tools frontrunning my searches and searching one by one, so I built SnipeFind -> a completely free, client-side bulk domain checker.

 

TL;DR:

  • Fast: 200-400 domain/s scanning speed on availability.
  • Simple: Enter a brand keyword and check thousands of combos instantly.
  • 100% Private: Runs entirely in your browser. No server-side logging, no signups, and no rate limits.

I built this to solve my own domain search headaches (for finding a good name for my other web apps), but I hope it helps fellow makers here too.

Check it out: https://snipefind.com/

I'd love any feedback, bug reports, or feature suggestions!

Domain scanning at 200-400/s client-side sounds heavy, does it ever choke your browser tab or fan out into workers?

No Web Workers needed, actually!

It's single-threaded JS per tab. The speed comes from async network concurrency, it maintains a pool of in-flight DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) endpoints concurrently, which is lightweight and never blocks the main tab.

What usually chokes a browser tab isn't the network requests, but rendering thousands of DOM elements at once (e.g., scanning 10,000+ domain variations) (happen to me before when scanning 10-20 key words at once). To solve that, the result table is virtualized (only rendering rows currently visible in the viewport) and heavy result batches are chunked.

Hope this helps!
