Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## TTAB Trademark Opposition & Cancellation Tracker Search the **USPTO Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB)** for trademark **oppositions, cancellations** and other inter-partes proceedings — by company/party name or by proceeding number — and get clean, structured records: proceeding number and type, filing date, current status, the **plaintiff and defendant**, and the **marks at issue** (serial & registration numbers). Public TTABVUE data, **no login, no API key**. If you do trademark law, brand protection, or competitive IP intelligence, TTAB proceedings are where brand disputes play out — who's opposing whom, over which marks. This Actor turns TTABVUE into a queryable feed. ### What you get | Field | Description | |---|---| | `proceedingNumber` / `proceedingType` | TTAB number and type (Opposition / Cancellation / Concurrent Use / Interference) | | `filingDate` / `status` / `statusDate` | When filed, current status, last status change | | `plaintiff` / `allPlaintiffs` | The opposer/petitioner | | `defendant` / `allDefendants` | The applicant/registrant being challenged | | `markSerialNumbers` / `markRegistrationNumbers` | The trademark applications/registrations at issue | | `ttabvueUrl` | Direct link to the TTABVUE record | ### Input - **Party / company name** (`party`) — find proceedings involving a company (e.g. `Apple`, `Nike`). - **Proceeding numbers** (`proceedingNumbers`) — pull specific proceedings directly (overrides party search). - **Proceeding type** (`proceedingType`) — opposition / cancellation / etc. - **Status** (`status`) — pending / terminated. - **Max proceedings** (`maxResults`). #### Example input ```json { "party": "Apple", "proceedingType": "opposition", "status": "pending" } ```` #### Example output row ```json { "proceedingNumber": "91308128", "proceedingType": "Opposition", "filingDate": "2026-06-16", "status": "Pending", "plaintiff": "APPLE INC.", "defendant": "MACTRON GROUP CO., LTD.", "markSerialNumbers": ["99460555"], "ttabvueUrl": "https://ttabvue.uspto.gov/ttabvue/v?pno=91308128" } ``` ### Use cases - **Brand protection / watch** — monitor oppositions and cancellations involving your (or a competitor's) marks. - **Trademark prosecution** — pull the full dispute history for a party before filing. - **Competitive IP intelligence** — see who a company is fighting and over which brands. - **Legal research & dockets** — feed structured TTAB data into your matter-management or BI tools. ### Tips - Run on a **schedule** with a party name and diff results to catch new oppositions as they're filed. - Use `proceedingNumbers` for a precise pull when you already have the docket numbers. - Pairs with NexGenData's **USPTO Trademark Search** and **EUIPO Trademark Search** for end-to-end brand intelligence. ### FAQ **Account or API key?** No — TTABVUE is public. **Which proceedings?** Oppositions (91-series), cancellations (92), concurrent use (93), interferences (94) and ex parte appeals. **How current?** Live from TTABVUE — newly filed proceedings appear as the Board dockets them. ### Related Actors by NexGenData - \[euipo-esearch-trademarks]\(https://apify.com/nexgendata/EUIPO Trademark Search?fpr=2ayu9b) - \[uspto-trademark-search]\(https://apify.com/nexgendata/USPTO Trademark Search?fpr=2ayu9b) - \[trademark-conflict-watch]\(https://apify.com/nexgendata/Trademark Conflict Watch — new-filing alerts?fpr=2ayu9b) - \[wipo-patentscope-search]\(https://apify.com/nexgendata/WIPO PatentScope Search?fpr=2ayu9b) Part of the IP-intelligence suite: **USPTO Trademark Search**, **EUIPO Trademark Search**, **USPTO Patent Search**, **CNIPA China Patent Search**. # Actor input Schema ## `party` (type: `string`): Search TTAB proceedings involving this party (plaintiff or defendant), e.g. 'Apple', 'Nike'. ## `proceedingNumbers` (type: `array`): Specific TTAB proceeding numbers to pull (e.g. 91308128).
