Intro
Recently, there's been an increase in AI tools, especially for startups. I looked into tools listed on theresanaiforthat.com and futurepedia.io to see how they compare in terms of value proposition and actual function.
Focus: Brand name generation
Outcome: AI can generate startup names and identify available domains quickly.
Number of tools tested: 9
Preferred Tools:
Note: The goal here is to identify tools that produce good, but not perfect, results. I expect AI to handle the bulk of the task, but final refinements are up to humans.
