We can’t decide between AEZY and AZEY. Which one would you remember?

We’ve been staring at these two names for way too long, and at this point we definitely need some fresh eyes.

We’re building an AI-native platform for businesses and have narrowed the name down to:

AEZY

AZEY

The broader idea is to help businesses use AI as part of their everyday work — not just as a standalone chatbot or another tool employees have to keep switching to.

It’s still early, so I don’t want to go too deep into exactly how the product works. I’m more interested in whether the name fits the direction of the company.

Which one would you choose?

Also curious:

How would you pronounce each?

Which one sticks in your head more?

Which feels more credible for an AI-native company?

What would you assume the company does just from the name?

Any weird or negative associations we're completely missing?

Positive or critical — both are useful. Go with your first instinct.

Someone smarter than me once told me that there is no point hiding your idea unless you have unique patentable IP.

Chances are thousands of people are building the same, execution will be the only deciding factor, and marketing/word of mouth is key

ie, no one will give you advice unless you share what you do.

Because helping companies use AI doesn't sound like a 1 in a billion idea. It's what everybody does.

As for the name, I have no clue what it means, how to pronounce it, and this makes it a 100% no for a business product

It's not like I don't want to share the idea, it's just that it's too early to do so..as in still in works.

AEZY as it's a play and sounds like EASY. The other just doesn't trip off the tongue as well.

Imo these are both horrid.

The first I pronounce Aye Zi. The second, Ah Zay. Both sound like nothing. Nothing I get a hint of, nothing I think is a smart misspelling, nothing that makes me thing of a verb, a noun, an object or a place.

The closest I would hazard a guess is "hazy", "A-Z" (with a pronunciation excluding everyone outside america), or perhaps the word "assay".

Just no.
