Would you let AI drop a .uk without checking it yourself?

AI can probably make it easier to work through a long renewal list, especially if you have a fair few names coming up at once.

But renewing the wrong domain and dropping the wrong one are two very different mistakes.

Renewing a dud costs another year's renewal fee. Dropping the wrong .uk could mean losing the name altogether.

That’s the bit I'd struggle to hand over completely.

Would you ever let AI make the final drop decision on a .uk without checking it yourself first?
 
a lovely idea in a market where there are no dropcatchers.. not in the UK - the space has way too many battle-hardened dropcatching pros..
Wow, really? I didn't realize the .uk dropcatching scene was that competitive... That makes the final check even more important then. 👍

huhh.. it is crazy competitive one :) yes, and every new company this space will only add even more Nominet tags and creative approaches to catch those juicy UK domains :)
