Question 1

Will this prevent Amazon/Etsy takedowns?

Accepted Answer

LogoVerify helps you identify potential trademark conflicts before listing products. While we can't guarantee platform decisions, catching conflicts early significantly reduces takedown risk. Many platform complaints stem from registered trademarks, and our tool scans the entire USPTO database to help you avoid these issues before they happen.

Question 2

What should I do if my design has a high similarity score?

Accepted Answer

If your design scores 85% or higher similarity to an existing trademark, we strongly recommend redesigning before launch. Scores between 70-84% mean you should carefully review the conflicting mark and consider modifications to key design elements. Scores below 70% indicate lower risk, but always prioritize originality to protect your brand long-term.

Question 3

Is this legal advice?

Accepted Answer

No, LogoVerify is a screening tool to help you research potential conflicts, not a substitute for legal counsel. Think of us as your first line of defense—we provide data-driven insights so you can make informed decisions before launch. For trademark applications, infringement disputes, or complex legal questions, always consult a qualified IP attorney.

Question 4

How accurate is the AI matching?

Accepted Answer

Our AI achieves 95% accuracy, trained on millions of trademark comparisons. Unlike text-based searches that miss visual conflicts entirely, our algorithm detects shapes, patterns, colors, and design elements automatically. This means you catch potential issues in seconds instead of spending hours manually browsing USPTO records—giving you confidence to launch faster.

Question 5

Does this cover international trademarks?

Accepted Answer

We currently scan the USPTO database (10M+ US registered trademarks). Since the US is the largest e-commerce market and most Amazon/Etsy sellers operate here, USPTO coverage protects your primary revenue stream. International coverage for EU, UK, and Canada is coming soon. If you're launching globally, use our tool for US clearance first, then check regional offices for other jurisdictions.

Question 6

What file formats are supported?

Accepted Answer

We accept PNG, JPEG, and WebP files up to 5MB in size. For best results, use high-resolution images with clean backgrounds. Our interactive crop tool helps you focus on the key design elements that matter most for trademark comparison, excluding text or supporting graphics.

Question 7

What do the risk levels mean?

Accepted Answer

We categorize results into three risk levels to help you prioritize: High risk means strong visual similarity—redesign recommended before launch. Medium risk suggests reviewing the conflicting mark and modifying your design. Low risk shows minor similarities that are worth noting but less concerning. These are screening indicators to guide your decisions, not legal determinations of infringement.

Question 8

How fast are results delivered?

Accepted Answer

Most searches complete in under 5 seconds. Processing time depends on image size and complexity, but our optimized infrastructure ensures you get actionable results almost instantly. No waiting days for manual searches or attorney reviews.

Question 9

Can I search by trademark class?

Accepted Answer

Yes! You can filter results by Nice Classification (classes 1-45) to focus on trademarks in your specific industry. This helps narrow results to the most relevant potential conflicts. For example, a fashion brand would focus on Class 25 (clothing) rather than reviewing marks in unrelated industries.

Question 10

How do I do a USPTO trademark search for free?

Accepted Answer

Simply sign up with your Google account (takes 10 seconds), then upload your logo or design image to LogoVerify. Our tool instantly scans the entire USPTO database (10M+ registered trademarks) and shows you visual matches in under 5 seconds. This is much faster and easier than manually searching the USPTO TESS database, which requires complex text queries and misses visual similarities entirely.

Question 11

Is this really free? Do I need an account?

Accepted Answer

Yes, completely free to start! Simply sign up with your Google account—no credit card required, no complicated forms. Just one click to authenticate and you can immediately start checking your designs against 10M+ USPTO trademarks. For sellers who need advanced features like bulk checking, detailed PDF reports, and priority processing, we offer affordable paid plans.

Question 12

Can I check multiple designs at once?

Accepted Answer

Currently, you can upload and check designs one at a time to ensure accurate results for each. For sellers with multiple SKUs or product lines who need bulk trademark checking, we're developing a batch upload feature—join our waitlist to get early access. In the meantime, our 5-second search speed makes it fast to check multiple designs individually.

Question 13

What should I do if I find a trademark conflict?

Accepted Answer

If you discover a conflict, don't panic—you have options. For high similarity matches, redesign key elements before launch to create sufficient differentiation. Review the conflicting trademark's Nice Classification to see if you're actually in competing industries. Consider consulting an IP attorney for a professional opinion, especially for high-value products. Most importantly, address conflicts before printing inventory or listing products to avoid costly rebranding later.

Question 14

How often is the USPTO trademark database updated?

Accepted Answer

Our database syncs with the USPTO daily to ensure you're always searching against the latest trademark registrations. The USPTO updates their records continuously with new applications, registrations, and status changes, and we pull these updates every day. This means you get reliable, up-to-date protection against recently filed trademarks that could conflict with your designs.
