The .icu field guide

What .icu can add to your name

A short, three-letter generic extension for teams that want the name itself to carry the meaning and are prepared to compare the full address carefully.

01Start here

Let people read the phrase: I See You

The .icu registry uses the phrase 'I See You' and #NowISeeYou as part of the extension's identity. That gives you a distinctive way to name a creator page, community, campaign, or brand that wants to be noticed, recognised, and remembered after a first encounter.

02

Turn visibility into a useful destination

Use the word before .icu to identify the person, project, service, or idea people should find. Then make the landing page earn the attention with a clear introduction, latest work, useful link, or simple next step. The full name can feel personal and memorable while still giving visitors a reason to stay.

03

Start with the complete name

A short ending changes the visual rhythm of an address, but it does not automatically explain a product. Start with the exact name and test whether the complete string remains easy to recognise, spell, and repeat.

This is especially useful for a project with a clear name of its own. If the address needs extra explanation in every conversation, reconsider the name before treating the extension as the solution.

04

Use context intentionally

A domain is seen in different places: a browser tab, a search result, a social profile, an email address, documentation, and a spoken introduction. The same string can feel clear in one of those contexts and awkward in another.

Try the address where your audience will actually encounter it. That gives a stronger signal than selecting an ending based only on novelty or a single mock-up.

Built for

What you can build with .icu

Use .icu when a short, memorable phrase across the dot can become part of how you introduce the project.

A creator or community profile

Give your public work, social links, updates, and ways to connect one concise destination that is easy to share.

02

A campaign landing page

Use a short address on event cards, QR codes, posts, and invitations where people need to remember it after one encounter.

03

A distinctive brand site

Build a home for a product, service, or initiative whose name already carries the meaning you want the address to express.
