Dynadot recently began running .ai expired domain name auctions in conjunction with the registry. Some people asked, “Didn’t Park.io have a deal with the .ai registry?”

The answer is yes, but Dynadot has purchased Park.io.

Park.io is known for running expired domain auctions for many country code extensions that have become popular over the years. While other expired domain services ignored domains like .io, Park.io road the coattails of their expanding popularity.

A Dynadot spokesperson told Reglike:

We purchased Park.io to expand our aftermarket offerings with a like minded, tech savvy firm. Since the buyout we added .AI auctions to our DAX (Dynadot Auction Exchange) platform and are working on some other fresh and exciting features. Our DAX platform is an auction network that Registrars/Registries can join and exchange auction inventory. As Dynadot grows, we want to continue to innovate and offer our clients the best user experience in the industry.
