About .institute

.institute is a generic top-level domain (gTLD) intended for use by educational, research, and professional institutes. It is operated by Binky Moon, LLC, a subsidiary of Identity Digital Inc., based in Bellevue, Washington. There are no specific eligibility restrictions, so anyone can register a .institute domain, though it is most commonly used by organizations that identify as institutes, such as academic, scientific, or cultural bodies. The domain was delegated to Outer Maple, LLC in December 2013 and later transferred to Binky Moon, LLC in March 2018 as part of a larger group of 196 domains. Registration services are provided through Identity Digital's platform. The registry uses RDAP for querying registration data.
