FAQ

Why do I need my own API key?

USPTO requires a personal key for TSDR and limits it to 60 requests per minute. It is free and takes a few minutes to get.

What happens without a key?

Each serial returns a free error row (not charged) so you can test safely.

Can I search by mark name?

Not yet. This actor looks up known serial numbers.

The actor only reads public, official endpoints. You are responsible for using the data in line with the source's terms and applicable laws (e.g. GDPR for personal data).
