    I solved this in the worst way. Took a (correct) guess at what was meant by prefix, and then brute-forced a dozen of them. Did you know that zetta.ai is also an AI company?

    Haven't read past the problem statement to avoid spoilers.

    How difficult can it be to brute force this. (Try all possible domain names within a reasonable length)

    Take help from AI while you are at it.
