servo vs Naming Tools

Naming tools are fun. You type in a keyword, get 200 domain-available options, and pick one that feels right. But a name without positioning is just a domain. The hard part isn't the word on the sign — it's the sentence that explains what you do and why anyone should care. Servo skips the name generator theater and gets you to the actual work: figuring out what your brand stands for, then what to say about it.

Verdict

If you need a name, use a naming tool. If you need people to understand what you built, use servo. Most founders reach for a naming tool when the real problem is that they can't explain the business — a new name won't fix that.
