Score suggests a weak resale profile. Unless you have a specific end-user in mind, the carrying cost outweighs the upside.

drill.studio is a keyword-forward name — "drill" carries intrinsic meaning before any branding layer is added. 5 characters is commercially viable: long enough to encode meaning, short enough to pass the memorability test. The phonetics are consonant-dense and choppy phonetically. .studio carries more industry-specific weight than generic legacy TLDs — it is a genuine first-choice for the right kind of buyer. No Wayback snapshots exist for this address, which typically means prior owners never developed a public site. At DQS 49, the name sits in the mid band — not an automatic buy, but worth evaluating against a specific use case rather than on its own merits. The domain is currently in the Redemption Grace Period — the original owner retains the right to restore for roughly 26 more days. It is not available to register today. The signals are mixed enough that we'd only recommend the name to someone who already has a concrete use for it rather than as a speculative play.

Social handle availability
