DomainWatch makes it easy for you to monitor your own domains and ones you want to acquire. We keep an eye on expiration dates, nameservers, SSL certificates, whois contacts and more. DomainWatch is free for monitoring expiration for 10 domains. If you have more domains and want to monitor more than just expiration dates, say hello.
Congrats on your launch. I would like to say that I love the design. However, I am skeptical about the usage.
As @guidoj said, a lot of people who track domains for registration make use of a domain catching service. There are also companies which have many bots that automatically register a domain when it becomes free to resell it later at a higher price.
That said, I am not sure what is the real use case for your service.

Hey I’ll give it a try. Sure dropcatch and similar services exist, but if myname.com ever comes up this is a great way to steal from the nauseating motivational speaker who currently besmirches my name online. I like the concept and am now using it. Thanks!
I'd built something like this for myself a few years ago but love your implementation. I had to run a program locally, but taking the domains and the email upfront and creating a "set it and forget it" flow feels awesome.
The signup and CTA are just so simple.

@udayrsingh That's quite similar to what I have done before launching this. Thanks for kind words, Uday! :)

I like the simple user interface. Price beats the usual "dropcatch" price, just to find out that I won't get the domain name.
Pros:
Affordable, tracking a lot domain names, good TLD support.
Cons:
Remains to be seen how accurate it is (I'll know in a few months)

Congrats on the launch @benjam1n :)
What features are you planning on adding next?

@amrith Thanks man! Well, I have to validate the basics first, but here are some ideas:
* Full whois alerting - nameserver, transfer prohibited, registrar/registrant/admin/tech contacts (this is more of a security feature)
* Domain ownership verification (so you can get different notifications and suggestions, eg. suggesting a backordering on a domain that you own doesn't really make sense)
* Slack/Telegram notifications

Interesting but why monitoring if at the end you cannot get the domain?
Pros:The design is clean
Cons:The purpose is discutable
