🛡️ USPTO Trademark Batch Search API

Bulk verify keywords and phrases against the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) database to instantly detect LIVE and PENDING trademarks. Perfect for Print-on-Demand (POD) sellers, Merch by Amazon creators, Redbubble artists, domain flippers, and keyword monitoring platforms.

Instead of manually checking phrases one by one on the outdated USPTO site, this edge-optimized tool routes lookups to an advanced batch search backend gateway, checks up to 100 phrases in parallel, filters target classes, records programmatic PPE charge units, and maps clean visual answers.
