The .ai country-code top-level domain (ccTLD) from Anguilla has experienced significant growth, driven by the expanding artificial intelligence industry. According to registry data, the total number of registered .ai domains reached 572,575 on November 27, marking an increase of 39,507 from October 1, when it stood at 533,068. For comparison, the total was 353,928 on December 20, 2023, reflecting consistent growth over the past year.
Registry Migration Underway
The .ai registry is undergoing a migration as Identity Digital takes over operational responsibilities. Recently, the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) record was updated, replacing long-time technical manager Vince Cate with the Government of Anguilla.
Premium Pricing Strategy
Unlike many fast-growing TLDs that attract low-quality registrations with low prices, .ai domains maintain a premium price point of $70 annually, with a mandatory two-year minimum registration period. This pricing strategy positions .ai as a mid-range, high-value domain option for businesses and developers in the artificial intelligence sector.
