Free lookup or knockout report?

The free trademark database search lets you explore individual public records yourself. The knockout report is a paid, conflict-focused search scoped to your proposed name and intended goods or services, delivered as a PDF.

Important: This report is generated by an automated AI system using a search methodology designed by our attorneys. It is not prepared or reviewed by an attorney, is not a legal opinion or legal advice, and does not create an attorney-client relationship. It covers U.S. federal filings in our daily-refreshed copy of the register, plus searches of the web, social media, online marketplaces, app stores, and domain registrations for use of the name. It does not search state trademark registrations or foreign trademark registers, and no search can find every unregistered (common-law) use. See our refund policy, including exceptions for delivery failures or our error. All sales are final because the report is produced using the exact term submitted.
