TrademarkMind

The complete check, and the one to prefer when someone asks whether a brand is free: the name against the U.S. and international trademark registers, the logo if they share one, and the domains and social handles, all resolved into a single verdict of clear, caution or conflict. Returns a link to the full report and to a PDF of it.

Compares a logo image against the registered logos on the U.S. and international registers, three ways: the shape of the image, what the image depicts, and the wording inside it. Each match comes back with a similarity score, how it matched, and whether the registration is still live. Use this when someone shares artwork and asks whether it clashes with an existing mark. The search takes a minute or two, so this returns a job id to read back with get_result.

Scores a proposed brand name against the U.S. federal trademark register and the international Madrid register in the chosen classes, and returns the closest conflicting marks with their similarity, their status, and whether they are still live. Use this when someone asks whether a name is taken, available, or safe to register.

Returns the current state of a check started earlier, using the job id it gave you. Call it again after a short wait while the status is still running.

Searches WIPO Madrid System international registrations by name, showing for each one the countries it was designated in and the countries that refused it. Use this for questions about protecting a name abroad.

Maps a plain description of what a business sells onto the Nice classes a trademark filing would need. Call this before check_name whenever the user has not given class numbers.
