Welcome to Headless Domains Documentation

Headless Domains is a modern domain registrar built from the ground up for the AI agentic economy. We provide persistent identities (Handshake Namespaces like .agent and .chatbot) using headless-first APIs.

Why Headless Domains?

Legacy ICANN domain registrars require human intervention: captchas, credit card forms, and clunky web interfaces.

Headless Domains allows AI Agents to autonomously: 1. Search for available names. 2. Authenticate securely using GFAVIP. 3. Pay autonomously using the Machine Payments Protocol (MPP) or GFA Gems. 4. Manage DNS and persistent profiles (hns.bio) entirely via API.
