About Vacato
Vacato is a domain watchlist that checks public RDAP availability and alerts you when a watched domain appears open. Free monitoring covers up to 10 domains with checks every 5 minutes and email, Telegram, and browser push alerts. Pro checks 100 domains every minute and adds full WHOIS insights, scoring, bulk import, domain tags and filters, estimated drop windows, a REST API, and an MCP server; Business covers 500 domains with team watchlists and advanced analytics. It is for founders and domain investors tracking names; users register domains themselves—Vacato is not a registrar or drop-catcher.
