Searching trademarks
Find conflicting marks, pick the right classes and read your results.

- Choosing NICE classes Browse the grid, use the AI class helper, or run the guided wizard.
- Reading your search results What each field on a result card means and how to spot a genuine conflict.
- Filtering and sorting results Narrow by status, class, office, territory or match type — all without a new search.
- Saving, exporting and sharing a search Keep a search, add notes, download it as PDF or Word, share a read-only link.
Assessments

- What an assessment is and what it costs One mark, one jurisdiction, one credit — and what the report actually contains.

- Declaring marks you already own Stop your own earlier marks being reported as conflicts against you.
