I built this website [0] to shine some light into one of the most controversial startup questions, should you get the .com domain for your company, or will an alternative domain do?

Obviously inspired by PG's Change Your Name essay [1] that made a strong case for the .com, but the data interestingly (or predictably) shows a strong trend towards .ai in recent batches.
