Research your name before investing in your brand.

We agree on the precise wording and treatment of spacing, punctuation, and capitalization before searching. The report identifies the search date, database, queries, record-status scope, and any limitations. Exact-match findings are not limited to the client’s primary class. If result volume requires expanded reporting or review, we discuss scope and fees before additional charges.

This screen excludes phonetic equivalents, spelling variants, separate logo/design research, state registers, and marketplace uses unless separately agreed. “No exact matches identified” does not mean available, clear, or safe to use. Broader research may be needed even when no exact matches appear.

The $99 Name Research Snapshot adds agreed limited spelling variants and factual observations within one primary class, with up to five documented findings. It excludes coordinated-class expansion and marketplace research. Expanded class-based research starts at $179.

For one agreed serial or registration number, record the prior and current available status, relevant event dates, source links, and date checked. Setup establishes the starting record and baseline. Portfolio pricing is custom quoted. We confirm data access, record coverage, reporting day, recipients, and service start before accepting the engagement.

Checks and reporting are weekly, not real time. Public-record updates, feed delays, outages, and email delivery can affect reporting; the report identifies the data period checked and any known gaps. This is administrative status reporting, not legal deadline calculation, docketing, filing, response preparation, or representation. Official correspondence and all response, maintenance, and other deadlines remain the applicant’s and counsel’s responsibility.

This service tracks specified records; it does not search for newly filed similar marks, marketplace use, infringement, or all changes throughout the trademark system. Similarity-watch services require a separate, confirmed capability and scope and are not included or currently offered here. USPTO status information is available directly through TSDR at no charge; our fee covers delegated checking, review, and reporting.

Coordinated classes are included: Expanded research includes the USPTO-listed coordinated international classes for each agreed primary class, with overlapping classes searched once. An additional primary class expands the goods/services focus and related-class research; it is $75 within the two-to-five-primary-class packages. A class already searched as coordinated is not billed again merely for appearing in the search.

All expanded packages include exact-name queries without a class restriction, agreed spelling and phonetic variants within the scoped classes, selected public marketplace and domain sources for the stated goods/services, source references, and one clarification round. The written scope identifies the sources, queries, review limits, and delivery date.

All-class means broader federal-record research, not worldwide clearance. The $599 starting package applies variant queries across all 45 international classes in the U.S. federal database for one word mark. Selected marketplace/domain checks remain focused on the agreed goods/services; this is not an exhaustive search of every industry, registry, or website.

Focused, human-reviewed findings: Expanded research packages include a findings table of up to 50 selected trademark records across the agreed primary and coordinated classes, or all 45 international classes for the all-class federal package. A brief summary highlights up to 10 records with the closest observable similarities in wording, sound, design where applicable, or stated goods/services. Fewer records are included when fewer warrant reporting; we do not fill the report with weak matches to reach a quota. Word-mark packages do not include a separate logo/design search.

The report limit is separate from search and screening scope. Reaching 50 reported records does not itself end the agreed screening. The written scope defines sources, queries, classes, and review limits. A search log records the research date, sources, queries, classes, and limitations. Neither the report nor the screening is represented as exhaustive.

If additional records warrant attention: We disclose the additional volume and any resulting limitations, and discuss an expanded appendix or separately scoped review before additional charges. We do not silently omit additional records identified as warranting attention because the report is full. Any work beyond the agreed screening limits requires an agreed scope and quote. Findings are factual research observations, not legal conflict rankings, clearance opinions, or permission-to-use decisions.

Research fees only. No application preparation, filing, government fees, legal opinion, formal clearance, or guarantee of registration or permission to use. State-register, paid-database, international-jurisdiction, and logo/design work are separately quoted. Multiple proposed names are separately scoped; class count is not name count.
