Patent and trademark watch services
Trademark and patent offices publish everything, but nobody has time to read it. IPWatch watches your marks, your classes, and your competitors, and flags the filings and deadlines that need a decision.
What it watches
Watchlists cover your marks, similar marks in your classes, named competitors, and specific technology areas. Status changes and assignment records are tracked too, because ownership changes matter as much as new filings.
What a change looks like
Alerts arrive with the filing details, the class, the deadline, and a summary a small firm can review in minutes. It is monitoring, not a legal opinion, and your attorney stays in charge.
Who it is for
- Brand owners with a handful of marks worth protecting
- Small IP practices that want a watch service without building one
- Startups tracking competitors in a technology area
- In-house counsel with too many marks and too little time
Monitoring catches the filing while there is still time to act. Once the opposition window closes, options disappear.
How setup works
Setup is a form, not a project. You tell us the boards, portals, parties, brands, or regions that matter, we wire the sources, and the first digest arrives within about 48 hours. You get real alerts for two weeks before any invoice, and you can adjust the filters as often as you like.
Questions
Is this a legal service?
No. We monitor public records and deliver structured reports. Decisions and filings belong to you and your attorney, and we do not give legal advice.
Can you watch similar marks, not just exact matches?
Yes. We score similarity by class, goods and services, and mark structure, and you set how broad the net should be.
Do you cover patents as well as trademarks?
Yes. Publications, families, status changes, and assignments, for the competitors and technology areas you name.
