Hi thanks! The domain actually used to be a redirect link to U.S. Automotive Industries (a trade publication). I reached out to them and got a deal, so it was a lot for me but not, like, we.ai expensive lol.

The name was always a corporate placeholder and I liked the idea of US Steel or General Electric type names. Some startups have done similar things, and many people actually like the name a ton. But I know it's controversial and so any products I made have their own names and branding that's pretty separate (see: Abbey).

Over the past few months I've gone the gov contracting route and the name actually made some sense, so I've used it raw. Still, the plan is to get a DBA in the near future and switch it up. Thanks for the advice!

Ok that’s actually kinda hilarious — hopefully some blogger picks up that tidbit. I bet there aren’t many people using “ai” for “automotive industry” anymore!
