Trademark Search
Search USPTO trademark database for registered and pending marks by keyword, serial number, or owner. Extract mark text, status, filing dates, goods/services, and classification data
What does Trademark Search do?
Trademark Search is an automated data extraction tool that searches the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) database to find registered and pending trademark filings. It retrieves comprehensive trademark data including the mark text, serial number, registration number, owner name, filing date, current status, goods and services description, and international class numbers. The actor supports keyword-based searching, allowing you to check trademark availability, monitor competitor marks, or research the trademark landscape for any product category or brand name.
Why use Trademark Search?
Trademark research is essential before launching a new brand, product, or business to avoid infringement issues and ensure your chosen name is available for registration. Manually searching the USPTO TESS database is functional but slow and does not produce easily exportable, structured data. This actor automates the search process and delivers clean, structured trademark records that can be analyzed, compared, and integrated into business workflows. Brand strategists can check name availability before committing to marketing investments. Intellectual property attorneys can conduct preliminary trademark searches for clients. Marketing agencies can research competitor branding strategies. Business owners can monitor for potential trademark conflicts with their existing marks. The structured output supports easy export to spreadsheets, databases, and legal management systems.

Cost Estimate
This actor uses the High pricing tier ($0.0015 per page event). A typical trademark search with the default 512 MB memory setting completes quickly and costs under $0.05. Simple keyword searches that return results on a single page are the most cost-effective. Broader searches that span multiple result pages may cost slightly more but still represent excellent value compared to commercial trademark search services that can charge hundreds of dollars per search.
Tips and Best Practices
- Search for exact brand names to check availability before filing
- Use the status field to filter between live and dead trademarks
- Check the goodsServices field to see if a similar mark covers the same product category as yours
- International class numbers help identify which industries a trademark applies to
- Search for variations and similar spellings to identify potential conflicts
- Run searches for your own marks periodically to monitor the trademark landscape
- Dead trademarks may be available for registration but always consult with an IP attorney
