Hi PH! I am Roland, serial founder and web developer since around 20 years! Have you ever heard the story of Ford's car named "Pinto"? Well, not to go too much into detail but the word "Pinto" means something - let's say...vulgar in Brazilian Portuguese :-) The car did not sell well, as you might imagine. Or Kiri Cheese, you know the little white cheese block for kids? In Persian, "Kiri" means also something vulgar (yes, sometimes this THING is also small :-)). To avoid that your company or product name ends up with the same faux pais, I created SafeName - a tool that checks your brand or product name in all languages around the world. With more and more creative brand names around the world it is likely that this name means something obscene, vulgar or inappropriate in a different language. Check it out - 1 credit is for free after sign-up! Roland

@indieroland what a great way to explain your product, Roland. Can definitely imagine this to be useful for new brands launching! One question: How does your database stay up-to-date? Do you include all brands across the world? Congrats on the launch btw! 🔥

@stefan_bader Thank you for your kind words, Stefan! 🙏 We are splitting names into pieces and check those parts in all languages. Where the app struggles is when it is a "invented" word like "Dicssy" (if you know what I mean 😬). You should check out this story here (true story): https://www.rowu.me/another-real...

@shushant_lakhyani Thank you Shushant!! 😊 Appreciate it! It is very easy to choose a name, especially in the tech or online world, that lowers your score or reputation in different countries.

@shushant_lakhyani Yup just added to my toolbox. It is better to be safe from the start than to have to redo it later.

@rrhoover Nothing is wrong with Ford itself 🤣 Ford Pinto was the problem 🤣

Hey @indieroland congrats on the launch! 🥳 What could be the USP of your product which makes it different from another?? keep going.

@sheikhirfan10 Hey Irfan! I think the USP is the product itself! There is no other product to my knowledge that does exactly this. Checking for inappropriate usage of words! Thank you for your comment, I appreciate it a lot!

Scabidi
My brand is safe this tool is really useful but the problem is only 1 credit so if you have products like Scabidi Aero you cant check the name because you dont have enough credits.

@scabidi You can use your 1 free credit for any name. Also for Scabidi Aero. The credit is not split into "words". Let me know if you want me to check it out for you, if you used your credit already.
Scabidi
@indieroland No thanks

@scabidi I made an exception for you and checked your brand 🚀 After a thorough analysis, it is determined that the name 'Scabidi Aero' is Safe for international use in the field of Social Media and Video Platforms. No inappropriate, sexual, embarrassing, or negative meanings were found across the studied languages and cultural contexts. Thank me later! 😄

@scottplusplus Thank you, Scott! :-) Yes, it is indeed needed. Especially nowadays. I have some really funny real life examples that lead me to build it! Just check this article here :-D https://www.rowu.me/another-real...

Just gave you an upvote. It's pretty awesome that it is on the lookout for those unintended slip-ups. It's one of those things you don't know you need until, well, you really do. I'm curious though, how does SafeName handle dialects and regional slang?
