Feature highlight: TESS-style trademark search

Hi! This is Howard Katzenberg, GleanMark's founder. Build a search, broaden it, and isolate what the broader search added. If you used TESS, that workflow will feel familiar. GleanMark's TESS Search gives you field-by-field controls, editable queries, and search steps you can combine and export.

Let's research CONQUER for personal training. Choose how the wording must appear: inside a longer word, as the entire mark, or as a separate word. You can also specify first, middle, or last position.

Use Phonetic to generate a sound-alike search pattern. Preview the spellings it covers before running the search.

I select class 41 and live marks. More Filters lets you refine by owner, goods and services, disclaimed wording, mark descriptions, colors, dates, and filing basis.

GleanMark builds the query as you choose your fields. Prefer to write it yourself? Switch to Edit as a query. The field-code reference explains the supported syntax and wildcards.

Run the search, and GleanMark saves it as step one: 71 live marks, from 62 owners. The largest owner groups help you understand who's behind the list.

Now broaden the search to include pseudo marks and translations: 79 marks this time. That can uncover records the first search missed. For example, CC CONQUERTHECOAST appears as one word in the mark. Its USPTO pseudo mark separates those words, allowing this search to find it.

To review only the additions, combine step two, NOT step one: 8 marks. The resulting list includes KONQUER, spelled with a K, through its pseudo mark, and marks whose recorded translations include conquer. You can focus on the new results without reviewing the original list again.

Each step stays in your search session with its query and result count. Click an earlier step to load it back into the form and refine it. Export the session as a PDF to document your search, and download results as a spreadsheet for further review.
