GoDaddy is the world's largest registrar. Its official MCP server lets an AI assistant search for domains and check availability, but it can't register domains, change DNS or make purchases. Those happen on godaddy.com or through GoDaddy's REST API, and GoDaddy limits parts of that API to accounts holding a minimum number of domains. Plonki's MCP server and API can search, register, renew and set up DNS from any account.
