What we do

Trademark monitoring

Copycats can cause customer confusion, loss of business, and damage to your brand. In the U.S., you have only a 30-day window to stop someone from successfully registering a trademark that is identical or confusingly similar to yours.

Whether your trademark is registered, pending, or common-law, get protected with:

24/7 SYSTEMATIC MONITORING

We’ll look for identical as well as suspiciously similar trademark applications at the federal and international levels (where U.S. protection is claimed), so you can stop worrying about knockoffs.

TIMELY ALERTS

We’ll send weekly alert reports straight to your inbox, so you can stay up-to-date on copycat activity at a glance, and take action before it’s too late.

AFFORDABLE PROTECTION

For less than the cost of traditional trademark protection services or re-building brand equity lost to imposters, you can protect your business identity for the long run. See below for pricing details.

Trademark similarity search

No one wants confused customers. That’s why, in the U.S. and many other countries around the world, you can’t register a new trademark that’s similar to another mark already registered in your area of business. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) recommends that you search the database to uncover possible conflicts before you begin your trademark registration application.

Trademark.com makes searching USPTO data easy with our free search tool, built with small business owners in mind:

GOLD-STANDARD DATA

Data straight from the Trademark Office can contain errors created by the trademark owner during the application process. We edit, error-correct, and contextualize all USPTO data to help ensure accuracy.

EASY TO USE

Our search tool is quick and intuitive, delivering ranked results for identical and similar trademarks that are already registered or pending with the USPTO.

Trademark monitoring & filing

Owning a website domain name isn’t enough to stop copycats from harming your business. Register your trademark with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) to claim it before someone else does, and defend it with threat alerts.

We’ve got you covered with:

24/7 SYSTEMATIC MONITORING

It’s wise to monitor your desired mark even if you don’t own it yet. We’ll alert you if someone tries to register a trademark identical or suspiciously similar to your own desired mark – even while your application is being processed.

TIMELY ALERTS

We’ll send weekly alert reports straight to your inbox, so you can stay up-to-date on copycat activity at a glance, and take action before it’s too late.

EASY ONLINE APPLICATION & EXPERT REVIEW

Our trusted industry partner will help you file your trademark application with the USPTO, and you can track the status of your application online. Attorneys will review your application for completeness and contact you if they need more information.
