Modern. Precise. Yours.

An Address That Says Technology.

When people see your product name on a pitch deck, packaging or app store listing, the ending can reinforce what you do. .tech places that name under a suffix built for technology-focused projects. For a product such as pulse.tech, it gathers demo requests, developer questions and ongoing interest into one consistent destination.

  • Lead with a name that already carries meaning. Use your product, studio or platform title, or a clear variation, rather than a long generic link.
  • Make the focus immediate. Startups, tools and technical teams can use .tech across documentation, launch pages and outreach.
  • Leave room to scale. Begin with a simple presence; add status pages, docs or a console later without changing the core address.

.tech, .io or .com?

Who will interact with the name most often? A developer tool, a SaaS product and a broad commercial brand may favour different suffixes. Weigh that audience against availability and long-term cost.

Practical ways the address can serve

A .tech Domain for the Product You Are Shipping

A domain becomes useful when people actually use it. These examples show how one address can support a product site, documentation or a growing technical brand.

Find Your .tech

Product Launch

Give Your Tool a Direct Home

Offer one consistent address for demos, feature overviews and first contact.

Developer Tools

Put Documentation Front and Centre

Link the domain to docs, status pages and APIs, then reference it in README files and release notes.

Studio & Agency

Show Work Without the Noise

Present case studies, stack notes and contact paths under a single technical identity.

Name Consistency

Cover How People Search for You

When both spellings are free, register .tech and a matching developer-friendly ending, then point one to the other.

After the name is yours

.tech Domain Management, Kept Simple

Once registered, the address needs clear instructions for visitors and messages. Use the account tools to keep those connections current, monitor the registration and prepare for any future move.

DNS management

Enter the records supplied by your website or platform. Confirm the target carefully before overwriting an existing entry.

Nameserver control

Prefer another provider’s DNS? Apply its nameservers so that provider answers queries for the address.

Renewal management

Note the registration end date early enough to arrange payment and keep the public-facing name active.

Transfer support

Request guidance on shifting registrar responsibility, including the steps the registry expects.

Day-to-day administration

Why Manage Your .tech Domain with Truehost?

Buying the name is the first step. These account features help you connect services, handle messages and keep reliable access to the address your users rely on.

Free DNS management

Update website targets and verification records without purchasing a separate DNS-management product.

Free email forwarding

A forwarder sends incoming messages to an inbox you already use; it does not replace a full hosted mailbox.

2FA and domain lock

Enable two-factor authentication and available domain locks to reduce the chance of unauthorised account or transfer activity.

Coming soon

Free business email

A no-cost mailbox option is planned. Until it arrives, choose a suitable paid service if your team needs one now.

Coming soon

Free website builder

A free builder is also on the roadmap; do not treat it as available when budgeting for a site you need today.

Not available yet: the roadmap items above form no part of the current purchase. They should not be counted as included email hosting or an included website-building plan.

How to Put Your .tech Domain to Work

Someone may first find your product online, open the docs and later request access. Each step can share the same identity. Apply each service’s DNS requirements; different providers can still operate behind one domain.

  • Invite people to explore the product at pulse.tech.
  • Receive questions via [email protected].
  • Offer dedicated spaces such as docs.pulse.tech and console.pulse.tech.

Confirm the spelling first

.tech Domain Name Rules

Write the exact spelling before you search. The label to the left of .tech must follow the registry’s format rules, and a correctly formed spelling can still be reserved or already held by someone else.

Accepted in a .tech name

  • Plain English letters without accent marks
  • Digits, including any that form part of your product name
  • A hyphen between words, never at the start or end
  • Combinations such as pulse-labs24

Not accepted

  • Beginning or ending the label with a hyphen
  • Spaces, underscores or other symbols
  • Characters that require internationalised-domain encoding in restricted contexts
  • Reserved spellings and names already held by others
Check Sample Spellings

pulse.techValid spellingUses only permitted characters

Gather the details you will need

Your .tech Registration Checklist

Individuals, startups and organisations may apply for .tech. No proof of technical affiliation is required. Provide accurate details for the person or body that will hold the registration.

Information you need

  • The legal holder’s full personal or organisational identity
  • An inbox that will receive registration notices
  • Correct contact and postal information for the holder
  • Your chosen spelling, already checked against the permitted format

What registration does not supply

  • Certification as a technology company
  • Exclusive legal rights to a product or trading name
  • Hosted mailboxes or web hosting as part of the name alone
  • A permanent registration with no future payments

Before you register

Check related endings

Think about how someone who hears your product name might type it. Search any important variation before printing an address you may later want to change.

Review existing rights

A successful availability check is not a trade-mark clearance. Look at existing organisations and relevant rights before adopting a name for public use.

Use a lasting email address

Select an inbox you can still reach even if this domain later becomes unavailable. That simplifies registration queries and urgent account notices.

Protect a working address

What Happens If .tech Expires?

An expired address can interrupt more than a website: documentation links, password resets and support messages may all depend on it. Arrange renewal before the end date. The registry’s recovery window is a final chance, not a planned renewal method.

01Resolving

Active

Confirm that payment arrangements and contact details remain usable while the registration is current.

02Action due

Renewal Due

The displayed renewal charge is TSh 231,166. Complete payment early, especially if approval from another person is required.

03Grace period

Expired

During the initial grace window after expiry the address may still resolve. Act at once rather than treating continued service as proof of renewal.

04Redemption

Recovery window

Once suspension begins, connected services stop. Recovery may still be possible for a limited time and can involve extra fees.

05Released

Cancelled

After the recovery window closes the unrenewed name is scheduled for release. Another party may then register it; recovery is no longer assured.

Change registrar without renaming

Already Hold a .tech Domain?

You can switch the registrar without selecting a new product address. Prepare account access and DNS details first, then follow the standard transfer process. Registrar transfer and website migration remain separate tasks.

Transfer — TSh 177,424
  1. 01

    Prepare account access

    Locate the current registrar login and confirm who is authorised to request changes. Keep a record of the working DNS configuration.

  2. 02

    Start the receiving order

    Begin a Truehost transfer for the exact .tech spelling and obtain the instructions for accepting it.

  3. 03

    Finish the transfer steps

    Follow the authorisation process from the current registrar and Truehost. Confirm that existing website and mail destinations remain correct after the handover.

Questions before you decide

.tech Domain FAQs

Practical answers for startups and technical teams choosing an address, connecting services or moving an existing registration.

Is .tech limited to technology companies?

No. Any individual or organisation may hold a .tech registration. There is no requirement to prove technical affiliation. The applicant must still supply accurate details and meet the registry’s terms.

Does the first-year price continue every year?

Not necessarily. The registration figure is 9.23 USD; the separate renewal figure is TSh 231,166. Plan ongoing costs from the renewal amount and review the payable total before each order.

Does .tech improve search rankings?

No ending guarantees a ranking position. Choose an address that fits your product, then focus on useful content, a usable website and a clear description of the work. The domain should support that work, not replace it.

Can I register the name before the website is finished?

Yes. You can secure an available registration while the site is still being planned. Keep contact details and renewal arrangements up to date, and connect hosting when you have pages ready to publish.

Does registration include a working email inbox?

No hosted mailbox is created simply by registering an address. Choose a mailbox product if you need to send and receive product email; a forwarding feature serves a different purpose and routes messages into an existing inbox.

Must website and email use the same provider?

No. Your website can use one compatible platform and your mail another. Apply each provider’s DNS instructions carefully so a website change does not unintentionally interrupt incoming messages.

Can I keep .tech indefinitely?

You can retain the registration by renewing it while eligible and complying with the applicable terms. It is not a one-time permanent purchase. The registry allows durations up to ten years; the options offered in your order appear at checkout.

What if my preferred product name is already taken?

Try a clear, relevant variation that people can remember, or consider a different ending. Avoid a confusing imitation of another organisation. Do not assume that an inactive-looking website means the registration is available to buy.

Should a matching .io point to the same website?

If you control both registrations, you can choose a primary address and configure the other to redirect there. Buying .tech does not automatically give you .io; check and acquire the matching registration separately if it matters to your product.

Why must registration details stay accurate?

The registry or registrar may need to contact you about the registration. Outdated details can make validation, account recovery and urgent notices harder to handle. Update them when your organisation moves, changes leadership or replaces its contact inbox.

Is transferring a .tech domain the same as moving hosting?

No. A registrar transfer changes who administers the registration. Website files, databases and mailboxes may remain where they are. If you also want new hosting, plan that migration separately and coordinate any DNS changes.

Can I recover a .tech after services stop?

Possibly, if the registration is still inside the registry’s recovery window. Contact the registrar promptly once expiry is noticed; once the name is fully released, recovery is no longer guaranteed and another party may register it.
