TMZAP
Proceed with CautionClass 9, 42 + 45 · pre-filing clearance
A short, coined software name that runs straight into a phonetically identical senior registration. The value is in what the analysis does next: a per-mark du Pont likelihood-of-confusion walk, goods-relatedness scoring that pushes an unrelated medical-software hit down rather than up, a famous-brand near-miss correctly ruled out of scope, plus domain and web-presence signals. The written verdict is proceed with caution — clear the one conflict that matters, monitor the rest. No cherry-picking — this is exactly what the tool produced.

BARLYTICS
High RiskClass 9, 42
Analytics software — the tool surfaces an exact-name pending application and a live competitor on the identical mark, then walks the §2(d) likelihood-of-confusion factors.

CASA VERDE
High RiskClass 43
Restaurant services — a Spanish-language mark run through the Doctrine of Foreign Equivalents, with a crowded-field counter-argument the register-only view would miss.
Download Sample PDFEvery sample above uses a fictional brand name and is run against the live USPTO database — the conflicts, scores, and analysis are real.

What every report includes
Deeper analysis than services costing 2-10x as much — with full transparency.
Examiner-style search methodology
Examiner-style search strategies that replicate how a USPTO examining attorney evaluates your mark: exact match, pseudo-mark resolution, phonetic similarity, visual patterns, shared word components, coordinated class expansion, word-level phonetic, similar meaning, and foreign translation under the Doctrine of Foreign Equivalents. Compound marks are automatically decomposed into components so each word is tested independently.
DuPont analysis on the conflicts that matter
Select the marks you want analyzed and get a likelihood-of-confusion assessment on each one across the six most impactful DuPont factors — similarity of the marks, goods and services relatedness, trade channels, consumer sophistication, strength of the cited mark, and crowded field. Optional market research enhancement adds real-world business intelligence for richer trade channel analysis. We are not aware of another clearance product that runs this automatically.
How examiners actually treated similar marks
Not inference — real examiner action. We pull the actual Office Actions for the closest similar marks, reading even scanned paper-era documents, and show which drew a §2(d) citation and exactly which registration was cited, which drew a §2(e) refusal for descriptiveness, surname, or geographic significance, and how the applicant cured it — Supplemental Register, §2(f), disclaimer, argued, or abandoned. Registrations cited repeatedly across the neighborhood are surfaced as recurring blockers. Marks that registered without objection are called out too, because that is the counterpoint arguing in your favor. Included with every clearance report.
Coexistence evidence from the live register
For a contested conflict, we search the federal register for similar marks that already coexist across both goods universes — In re Thor Tech, 113 USPQ2d 1546 (TTAB 2015) evidence, assembled for you, with independent owners separated from affiliates of the same corporate family. Tag the pairs you want and download an exhibit bundle: a Word summary chart plus a live TSDR status PDF for every registration you tagged, zipped. The evidence appears in its own tab on the first run; re-analyze to fold it into the written §2(d) narrative.
Clearance for logos, not just words
Clear a design-only mark with no wording at all, or a logo-plus-words mark as a whole. We have fingerprinted over 1.2 million trademark design images, so conflicts come back as lookalike designs shown side by side against yours in the app — rather than you guessing at design codes. You still supply goods and services and at least one class, as with any clearance.
Choose what goes in before you generate
Twelve report sections you can include or leave out — refusal history, coexistence, domains, web presence, appendices, and more — chosen before the report is built, and applied to the PDF and Word versions. You can also filter conflicts by your own counsel rating, so your judgment decides what reaches the client, not the scoring. A clearance memo and an internal working file are different documents; you should not have to send the same one for both.
Goods & services commercial overlap
Your goods & services description is analyzed against each conflict's registered goods to score how commercially related they actually are — not just whether classes match. This is how an examiner evaluates whether consumers would expect the goods to come from the same source.
Clear recommendation with reasoning
Not a risk score — a written verdict. From High-Similarity Marks Found through Notable Similar Marks, Proceed with Caution, Manageable Risk, Generally Favorable, and Looks Clear — with specific reasons citing the marks, domains, and web presence that informed the assessment. Actionable enough to relay directly to your client.
Domain and web presence research
Five domain extensions checked with parked-vs-active detection. Web presence research surfaces businesses already using the name online — common-law risk signals that traditional clearance searches miss entirely.
Full audit trail for your client file
Every search step is documented: what was searched, which methods found each mark, and why it scored the way it did. Transparent enough to share with a client or include as supporting documentation in a work product file. This is not a black box.
10+ page professional report
Executive summary, per-mark DuPont analysis, complete search methodology documentation, conflict tables sorted by risk level, domain analysis, web presence findings, and step-by-step appendices. PDF, Word, or Excel — with per-factor breakdowns in the Excel export.
More analysis. Lower cost. Faster delivery.
