™️ USPTO Trademark Official Gazette Scraper
Scrape the USPTO Trademark Official Gazette: marks, owners, classes, status and weekly changes. Run it once and you get the current records as a dataset — that is the default. Turn on watch mode and a scheduled run returns only what changed since the last run (see Optional: run it on a schedule).
Output is one gazette_record row per result; billing is pay-per-event, the value event being one confirmed gazette event delta (a $0.02 start fee per run, then $0.08 per confirmed gazette event delta). Source: tm-eog-service.uspto.gov, tmog.uspto.gov, www.uspto.gov.
No login, no API key and no CAPTCHA solving are involved: the source is read logged-out.
📊 Sample Output
Real rows from run 9qwMsHWZ7dl4PEQCg on build 0.2.16 (2026-09-28), the same input as the Quick start below — every value is as the source published it (emails masked, long text shortened):

⚙️ Sample inputs
1. Quick start — the Store example (this is what the sample above came from)
{"watchMode": false,"markTextKeywords": ["AI"],"eventTypes": ["PUBLICATION_FOR_OPPOSITION"],"maxCatchupIssues": 1,"maxItems": 25}
The sample run charged exactly: 1 × $0.02 apify-actor-start + 0 × $0.08 trademark_delta + 1 × $0.10 gazette_issue_check = $0.12 on the Free tier — every delivered row was billed.
2. A smaller, narrowed run
{"watchMode": false,"markTextKeywords": ["AI"],"eventTypes": ["PUBLICATION_FOR_OPPOSITION"],"maxCatchupIssues": 1,"maxItems": 5}
Caps the run at 5 rows — about $0.42 on the Free tier ($0.02 start + 5 × $0.08).
3. Optional watch mode (changes only, for a schedule)
{"watchMode": true,"markTextKeywords": ["AI"],"eventTypes": ["PUBLICATION_FOR_OPPOSITION"],"maxCatchupIssues": 1,"maxItems": 25}
The first run seeds a private baseline and emits zero deltas; every later run emits one row per change, billed at $0.08 each.

🔧 How it works
Source. The actor reads tm-eog-service.uspto.gov, tmog.uspto.gov, www.uspto.gov — endpoints: https://tm-eog-service.uspto.gov/eog-rest-service/api, https://tm-eog-service.uspto.gov/eog-rest-service/api/external/search/publications, https://tm-eog-service.uspto.gov/robots.txt, https://tmog.uspto.gov/search. Public pages and feeds only; nothing behind a login.
Transport. Requests go through Apify residential proxy. robots.txt is read first and a disallowed path is never fetched.
Watch semantics. Snapshot mode (watchMode: false) returns a preview. Watch mode keys every record on a source-native id, stores a private baseline in a named key-value store, and on each later run emits one delta row per change (new / changed / removed). A blocked fetch is never diffed, so a source outage cannot show up as a mass removal.
Terminal states. A run ends NORMAL, CAPPED (your cap was reached), PARTIAL (something was withheld and the message says what), GENUINE_EMPTY (the source was read and truly had nothing in scope) or BLOCKED (the source refused or changed shape — the run FAILS loud and bills nothing). A zero-row run is never reported as a silent success.
Charging. Each confirmed gazette event delta is charged at the moment it is pushed (trademark_delta); a row that fails to charge is not delivered, so the dataset count always equals the charged count.

First run and later runs — read this first
Two modes:
- Snapshot (
watchMode: false, the runtime and form default): returns the current Gazette issue's matching records right away asgazette_recordrows. OmittingwatchModealso selects snapshot, so{}does not silently seed an empty watch. Billed onegazette_issue_checkfor the issue processed — the snapshot records themselves are not billed per-record. Use it to see the data now. - Watch (
watchMode: true): the first run seeds a private baseline and emits zero deltas (it establishes what already exists so it does not alert you to history). Later Tuesday issues produce only new matching events astrademark_delta— this is the change feed.maxCatchupIssues(1–3) bounds how much backlog each run processes.
Only an explicitly requested watch run seeds rather than alerting; point that watch at a weekly schedule and the deltas start with the next issue.
Source, scope and limits
Public / logged-out official USPTO TMOG search service only; robots honoured; no login, API key, CAPTCHA or paywall defeating. The Actor walks every result page in your requested filter scope before calling an issue complete, while returning only your requested maxItems. owner_name preserves USPTO's public current-owner display text, which can include an address; owner_address remains null on this source path. Identity is office + serial/registration number, using official publication reasons only — legal outcomes are never inferred. This is not TSDR live status, legal docketing, clearance, ownership verification, or legal advice. The Gazette is weekly and event-oriented — absence proves nothing. Design-only marks may have null mark text. Catch-up is capped at 3 issues/run. Blocks, incomplete pagination and shape drift fail loud, never as a clean empty.

⏰ Optional: run it on a schedule
A single run returns the current records. If you also want to be told what changed over time, open the actor in Apify Console → Schedules → Create new, add this actor with input 3 above (watchMode: true) so each run returns only the changes, and pick a cadence:
- Daily —
0 7 * * *(07:00 UTC): catch changes within a day. - Weekly —
0 7 * * 1: a Monday digest.
Each run is independent; keep the same input on the schedule so the results stay comparable. Schedules can also POST results to a webhook (Console → Integrations).

💰 Pricing example
| Event | Free | Bronze | Silver | Gold |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Actor Start (apify-actor-start) | $0.02 | $0.02 | $0.02 | $0.02 |
Confirmed Gazette event delta (trademark_delta) | $0.08 | $0.072 | $0.064 | $0.0536 |
Gazette issue processed (gazette_issue_check) | $0.10 | $0.09 | $0.08 | $0.067 |
Worked at the live Free-tier price (watch mode, one delta per change):
- 8 confirmed gazette event deltas: $0.02 start + 8 × $0.08 = $0.66
- 25 confirmed gazette event deltas: $0.02 start + 25 × $0.08 = $2.02
- 5000 confirmed gazette event deltas: $0.02 start + 5000 × $0.08 = $400.02
A run that delivers zero rows charges the $0.02 start fee only. A BLOCKED run (source refused) fails loud and charges no value event. The start fee is charged once per GB of run memory; the default run memory is 512 MB.
Yield on the sample run: CAPPED: delivered 25 of 45 matches. maxItems is a hard ceiling on what is delivered and billed, never a target.
⚖️ Legal & ToS
This actor reads public, logged-out pages and feeds published by tm-eog-service.uspto.gov, tmog.uspto.gov, www.uspto.gov. It collects only what the source publishes to any visitor, keeps to the source's robots rules (checked on every run), identifies itself, and does not access accounts, private data or anything behind authentication. Use the output in line with the source's terms and your local law; the intended use is B2B research and monitoring.
❓ FAQ
Q: Do I need an API key or a login?
A: No. The source (tm-eog-service.uspto.gov, tmog.uspto.gov, www.uspto.gov) is read logged-out; the input schema has no key field and the actor carries no secrets.
Q: Why did my run return 0 rows?
A: Read the run's status message. GENUINE_EMPTY means the source was read and had nothing in scope for your input (in watch mode the first run always seeds the baseline and returns zero deltas); BLOCKED means the source refused and the run failed without billing a value event — retry later or narrow the input. A zero-row run bills the start fee only.
Q: How many rows can one run return?
A: Up to maxItems (default 5000). Raise the cap for a bigger run; you pay per delivered row.
Q: What does watch mode remember between runs?
A: A private baseline of source-native record ids in a named key-value store. Each later run diffs the live source against it and emits only changes.
Q: How fresh is the data?
A: Every run reads the source live at run time; nothing is cached between runs except the watch baseline. Put it on a schedule for a continuous feed.
Q: What formats can I export?
A: The dataset downloads as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML or RSS from the run's Dataset tab or the Apify API, and any run can push to a webhook or integration.
Q: How is this different from the other IP and trademark scrapers actors?
A: Same output shape and billing model; this one covers tm-eog-service.uspto.gov, tmog.uspto.gov, www.uspto.gov. The siblings under Related Actors cover the other sources or slices — run several on one schedule for a combined feed.
🆘 Troubleshooting
- Run FAILED with BLOCKED → the source refused the request or changed its page shape → nothing was billed beyond the start fee; retry after a while, and if it persists open an Issue with the run id.
- Status says CAPPED → your cap (
maxItems) was reached → raise it for a bigger run. - Input validation error on start → a field is outside the schema's allowed values → start from the Quick start block and change one field at a time.
- Run TIMED-OUT → a very wide request on a slow day → raise the run timeout in Run options or narrow the input; what was delivered before the timeout is still in the dataset.
- First watch run shows no deltas → expected: it seeds the baseline; changes appear from the second run.
