**.ai** is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Anguilla, a British Overseas Territory in the Caribbean. It is administered by the government of Anguilla.

It is a popular domain hack with companies and projects related to the artificial intelligence industry (AI).

Google’s ad targeting treats .ai as a generic top-level domain (gTLD) because “users and website owners frequently see [the domain] as being more generic than country-targeted.”

In 2021, Google Search analyst Gary Illyes announced that “.ai” had been added to Google’s list of generic country-code top-level domains, meaning that Google would no longer infer Anguilla-specific targeting from the ccTLD.

Identity Digital began managing the domain as of January 2025.
