text: The character set supported for .ai domain names include A-Z, a-z, 0-9, and hyphen. As of November 2022, .ai domains cannot accommodate IDN characters. The auction of expired .ai domains is undertaken every ten days where expired domains can be procured through the auction process.
  Valuation
  Domains are $180 for each two-year period. As of December 2017, the ".ai" registry supports Extensible Provisioning Protocol. Consequently, many registrars are allowed to sell ".ai" domains. Since then, the .ai ccTLD has also been popular with artificial intelligence companies and organizations. Though such trends are primarily seen among new AI based companies or startups, many established AI and Tech companies preferred not to opt for .ai domain. For example, DeepMind has its domain retained at .com; Meta has redirected its facebook.ai domain to ai.meta.com.
  As of November 2022, expert.ai is the most valued .ai domain that has been sold. The sell was brokered and mediated by Sedo in June 2020 and was finalized at €95,000 (about US$108,000).
  Impact on Anguilla's economy
  The registration fees earned from the .ai domains go to the treasury of Government of Anguilla. As per a New York Times report, in 2018, the total revenue generated out of selling .ai domains was $2.9 million.
  In 2023, Anguilla’s government made about US$32 million from fees collected for registering .ai domains. That amounted to more than 10 per cent of gross domestic product for the territory.
