The EU, the US, the UK and Switzerland — plus Canada, Singapore, Israel, Chile, Spain, Austria, France and many others: coverage reaching 50+ national and regional trademark offices. Every result says where the near marks it found are filed. How far back each register goes differs. For many offices, including the US, the UK, Germany and France, our copy starts with filings from 2025 or 2026, so an older mark can be missing. EU marks are also searched live at EUIPO.

Yes. Beside the trademark registers, the check looks the name up in the Swiss commercial register (and, on request, the UK’s Companies House and Singapore’s ACRA) and asks the domain registries whether its .ch and .com addresses are registered. A register that does not answer is shown as not checked, never as free, and a domain with no record is not reserved for anyone.

No. Screening is limited to the available data and registers returned. Similarity, goods, services, territory and rights outside those results may all require legal assessment.

Mostly from the registers — but not the way you’d guess. The strongest read on a holder comes from their own filing record across every office we cover: how much of their book they let lapse, whether their marks cluster where they trade or spray across unrelated classes, whether filings arrive one at a time or fifty in a morning. That works for every holder, including the shell companies and private individuals most squatters file under. On top of it, corporate identity resolves through the LSEG PermID graph — the identifier spine the financial industry runs on — when the holder is a company that graph knows. Facts with provenance, ready for your counsel.

No. Antevo is intelligence — it tells you what’s happening and who’s behind it, and prepares the packet your counsel will use. Your trademark lawyer acts on it. That line matters, and we keep it.

We check the register every day for new filings similar to yours and flag anything close — with a similarity score and who filed it — the day it lands.

Oppositions, yes, and we tell you which kind of answer you’re getting. Where we hold the office’s publication date and the office’s window is pinned to its statute — the EU is the clearest case — you get a date and a countdown. Where a filing is still in examination we say so and watch for it to publish; where a window has already closed we tell you the route is now cancellation, not opposition. We would rather say “we can’t date this one, treat it as live” than invent a deadline. Renewals depend on the office publishing an expiry date, and many — including the EU, UK and US registers — don’t publish one in the data we mirror; where they do, we count down to it. Your counsel confirms every date before you act on it.

Same day. A new filing near your name is flagged as soon as it appears in the register feed — while the opposition window is still wide open.

We prepare a counsel-ready packet — the facts, the balance of the case, the deadline. Your lawyer files it. We watch and arm; they act.

Not for the free name check. Watching a name and the deeper intelligence need a free account.
