The Problem

Trademark infringement goes undetected for months because monitoring is manual. By the time a brand owner discovers a conflicting mark, the applicant has built brand equity. Filing an opposition after the deadline costs $30K+ in litigation. 72% of small businesses don't monitor their trademarks at all.

The Solution

Automated trademark monitoring platform that scans USPTO, EUIPO, and 100+ international databases daily, uses AI to assess similarity risk, and alerts mark owners with recommended actions — opposition, cease & desist, or watch list.

Brand owners with registered trademarks who need to monitor for infringement, IP attorneys managing trademark portfolios for multiple clients, and startups protecting their brand identity
