Custom domains are available on the Founder plan. See Plans and credits to upgrade.
By default, your company’s website is published at a nanocorp.app address. With a custom domain, you can use a domain you own instead, so your visitors see something like yourcompany.com or www.yourcompany.com. You bring the domain. NanoCorp connects it to your company’s website and sets up HTTPS automatically once your DNS is verified.

​
Before you start

You’ll need:
  • A Founder plan subscription. See Plans and credits.
  • Your company’s website already deployed. If it isn’t, NanoCorp will tell you when you try to save. Come back once the website is live.
  • A domain you own, bought from a registrar such as GoDaddy, Namecheap, Cloudflare, Google Domains, or similar.
The domains nanocorp.app, nanocorp.so, and localhost are reserved and can’t be used.

​
Add your domain in NanoCorp

1

Open the company settings

From your company dashboard, open the menu and click Company Settings.
2

Find the Custom Domain section

Scroll to Custom Domain.
3

Enter your domain and save

Type the domain you want to use (for example yourcompany.com or www.yourcompany.com), then click Save.
After saving, the status shows Pending and NanoCorp displays a DNS record you need to add at your registrar. Keep this page open for the next step.

​
Update your DNS records

This is the only part where you have to do work outside of NanoCorp. You’re going to tell your domain to point to NanoCorp’s servers by adding a DNS record at your registrar (the website where you bought the domain).
1

Log in to your registrar

Sign in at the site where you bought your domain. Common ones are GoDaddy, Namecheap, Cloudflare, Google Domains, and OVH.
2

Open the DNS settings for your domain

Every registrar calls this something slightly different. Look for a section named DNS, DNS Management, DNS Settings, or Advanced DNS.
3

Add the record NanoCorp showed you

NanoCorp shows three values: Type, Name, and Value. Copy each one into the matching field when you create a new record at your registrar.
4

Save at your registrar

Save the new record. It usually takes a few minutes (and occasionally up to a few hours) for DNS changes to become visible across the internet.
One thing to know about the Name (or Host) fieldMany registrars want it entered in a shorter form than NanoCorp shows:
  • For a domain like yourcompany.com: type @ or leave the field blank.
  • For a domain like www.yourcompany.com: type just www.
If in doubt, paste exactly what NanoCorp shows. Most registrars accept that too.
Optional: also redirect www to your apexIf you used an apex domain like yourcompany.com, NanoCorp configures a redirect from www.yourcompany.com to yourcompany.com automatically once your apex domain is verified. To activate it, add this second DNS record at your registrar:
TypeNameValue
CNAMEwwwcname.vercel-dns.com.
Once it propagates, visitors typing www.yourcompany.com are redirected to yourcompany.com over HTTPS (308 permanent redirect). HTTPS for the www host is set up automatically too.Skip this step if you want only yourcompany.com to be reachable.

​
Wait for verification

Once you’ve saved your DNS record, there’s nothing else to do on your side. NanoCorp automatically checks whether your DNS is ready every few seconds. Keep the Custom Domain section open and wait.
  • While the check is in progress, you’ll see Verifying DNS… This can take a few minutes.
  • When verification succeeds, the status flips to Active and the section shows Live. Your site is now reachable at your custom domain.
HTTPS is set up automatically, so visitors connect securely over https:// without any extra configuration from you. If verification takes a long time, DNS changes occasionally need up to a few hours to propagate across the internet. Double-check at your registrar that the record you added matches exactly what NanoCorp showed you (type, name, and value).

​
Remove a custom domain

In the Custom Domain section of Company Settings, click Remove. Your site goes back to its default nanocorp.app address. You can add a new custom domain later if you want.

​
Troubleshooting

Messages you might see when saving a domain:
  • “Invalid domain format”: the domain doesn’t look like a valid domain. Type it without http:// or trailing slashes (use yourcompany.com, not https://yourcompany.com/).
  • “This domain is reserved and cannot be used”: nanocorp.app, nanocorp.so, and localhost are reserved. Use a domain you own.
  • “Website must be deployed before adding a custom domain”: your company’s website hasn’t been published yet. Come back once it has.
  • “Custom domains require a Founder subscription”: you’re on the Free plan. See Plans and credits to upgrade.
