    Tried to register sixsevenlabs, too late unfortunately...

    https://41labs.ai/I think this is the most obviously AI designed website I have ever seen.From the nonsensical logo, the bland generic design language, overlapping support chats to mix and match of different landing page patterns. Misaligned avatar circles.

    Missed the best name! https://1337labs.org/(I'm not affiliated with this company and know nothing about it)

    Author here. Very surprised to see this here - my poor web server wasn't built for this! It's back up for now.

    At this point, naming conventions in AI startups are starting to read like a sequence counting exercise. Focus on core API reliability over branding gimmicks.

    What I’m seeing is there are 29 available startup names just waiting…

    New OEIS entry: numbers used in names of startups followed by “labs”

    > https://app.seventylabs.ch/> 6.90 CHF - locks your Mac's keyboard, trackpad and mouse and shows a black screen while you clean. Free 7-day trial.> 4.90 CHF - opens macOS's color loupe on any pixel on screen and instantly copies its HEX, RGB or HSL code to the clipboard. History of your last 8 colors, with a real magnifier that zooms into pixels. Free 7-day trial.That's weird that the more techy thing is cheaper.

    Wow, haha I just created an LLC that is a "<number> Labs" company. I don't plan on raising VC or anything public with it, it's just a name to release apps on the app store under.I was trying to come up with a name and it was exhausting, everything was taken, I was trying "clever names", eventually after strategizing with ChatGPT it gave me the suggestion along the lines of:"Many people just use their initials, birthdate, or area code, plus the word 'software', 'tech', or 'labs'"And I went ahead with that and called it a day!

    I used to work for a startup called 1026 Labs!

    I see someone is implementing FizzBuzz in “startup funding rounds”.
  • malixp
    At this point I’m expecting FourteenLabs to show up with a $200M valuation and a mission statement about “redefining human potential."

    What about eleventyseven?

    Hitchhiker: You heard of this thing, the 8-Minute Abs?Ted: Yeah, sure, 8-Minute Abs. Yeah, the exercise video.Hitchhiker: Yeah, this is going to blow that right out of the water. Listen to this: 7... Minute... Abs.Ted: Right. Yes. OK, all right. I see where you're going.Hitchhiker: Think about it. You walk into a video store, you see 8-Minute Abs sittin' there, there's 7-Minute Abs right beside it. Which one are you gonna pick, man?Ted: I would go for the 7.Hitchhiker: Bingo, man, bingo. 7-Minute Abs. And we guarantee just as good a workout as the 8-minute folk.Ted: You guarantee it? That's - how do you do that?Hitchhiker: If you're not happy with the first 7 minutes, we're gonna send you the extra minute free. You see? That's it. That's our motto. That's where we're comin' from. That's from "A" to "B".Ted: That's right. That's - that's good. That's good. Unless, of course, somebody comes up with 6-Minute Abs. Then you're in trouble, huh?[Hitchhiker convulses]Hitchhiker: No! No, no, not 6! I said 7. Nobody's comin' up with 6. Who works out in 6 minutes? You won't even get your heart goin, not even a mouse on a wheel.Ted: That - good point.Hitchhiker: 7's the key number here. Think about it. 7-Elevens. 7 dwarves. 7, man, that's the number. 7 chipmunks twirlin' on a branch, eatin' lots of sunflowers on my uncle's ranch. You know that old children's tale from the sea. It's like you're dreamin' about Gorgonzola cheese when it's clearly Brie time, baby. Step into my office.Ted: Why?Hitchhiker: 'Cause you're fuckin' fired!

    Amazon beat everyone to the punch, with Lab126.

    168labs.ai is still available. Great!

    Three score and ten labs

    A long time ago I used "23 Labs" as a funny name relative to my username. Fast forward many years and I considered actually using it. Apparently "[Number] Labs" is a very popular idea now...Oh well

    Nowadays, if you really want to sound modern and avant garde, try pitching a non-AI startup.

    57 could be a reference to the Chevy. Get it while it's hot... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1957_Chevrolet
  • nostratas
    There's always some kind of popular dumb naming scheme. I remember when it was prefixing "Zen-" to your startup. Some things never change
  • zuuna
    buying up all domains right now, thanks for making me rich
  • Barbing
    Hugged I think, no archives (org/today).
  • jemoka
    ok phew managed to archive it as the site came back up https://archive.is/BHilO

    Fwiw, ElevenLabs doesn't even make any sense as a firm, considering its TTS offering is extremely overpriced by an absurdly large factor. A large user would be far better off using local models. Even the OpenAI TTS is cheaper. There is no moat here such as with hardware.

    I did myself try a few increments above 11 once, but this takes it to the next level. Quality stuff.
  • aghilmort
    gotta wonder if any inspired by Ocean's Eleven, Ocean's 12, Ocean's 13

    I'm disappointed that forty two labs isn't selling the answer to life, the universe and everything.

    Back around 1994, I was 22 and had just moved away from my parents' home. I was renting a room in a 3BR house with roommates. We had pastimes like dancing to Deee-Lite, playing TinyMUD, and playing DOOM on a null modem connection with my 386. It turned out that one roommate had pastimes involving a pump shotgun he stored under his bed. But anyways.I was eager, and knowledgeable enough, to register a unique domain name for the entire household. It wasn't clear how we'd use it, with no permanent Internet presence, and we didn't have any hosting, DNS, or BGP capabilities, but a domain name sure seemed like a nifty thing to have, and it was free. So I aimed to register under .ca.us.Perhaps I was not feeling creative enough that week, or it was quite difficult to capture the zeitgeist of four completely different college kids sharing a house, but I decided that the best name for us was <street address>-<street name>.san-diego.ca.us. Fictitious example: 1234-main.san-diego.ca.us.Another curiosity about this particular name was that it may have been on the cusp of standards compliance. In the original DNS specification, a label could not begin with a digit, mainly because of parsing from bare IP addresses, but as you can see, eventually it was permitted, and our domain registration went forward.It was a real bummer, though, because our household domain name languished, as I argued with my roommates, and we had no means of even setting up email addresses, but for a few shining years I did own a wacky, unique, but very generic street-address-based domain name.

    Not a fan of any company where the CEO is proud to have worked at Palantir and Blackrock. Meh and gross.
  • oulipo
    It's a kind of trend in the Silicon Valley to name startups with a number to make it abstract.People argue that it make it more "memorable" than a "theme-based" name, because it's less expected.But when everyone does it, it becomes less so

    And all this time I had been calling them, "Elven Labs" in my head.
