🕒 Last updated: 2026-05-05

Whether you're an IP attorney researching trademark ownership chains, an M&A analyst auditing brand portfolios, or a brand manager monitoring competitor trademark activity, this tool makes it easy to collect structured trademark assignment data from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) Assignment Center.

The USPTO Trademark Assignment Scraper collects ownership transfer records with assignee/assignor details, correspondent info, conveyance types, recording dates, and document references. Search by owner name, serial number, or registration number.

✨ What Does It Do

• 📅 Key dates - track recording dates, filing dates, registration dates, and execution dates
• 📞 Correspondent info - get correspondent names and addresses for each record
• 📄 Document access - reel/frame references and direct URLs to download assignment documents

🔧 Input
