Type the name and what you sell. A few minutes later you have the marks standing in your way, each with its USPTO number, and a score for how likely the office is to register yours.

Refusals usually turn on a mark an examining attorney treats as too close to yours, and it is often nowhere near your spelling. Each search runs about eight queries against the live register to find them.
Same sound, different letters, and an exact-match lookup does not connect them.
Meaning is compared alongside sound and appearance, so two names sharing almost no letters can still be held too close.
A long registration is compared on its dominant part, with disclaimed and goods-naming words set aside.
The USPTO translates wording from a common modern language and judges the translation.
A free AI checker answers from what a language model has read, with no connection to the register, so it can name registrations that do not exist and miss the ones that do. Every conflict here is a record you can open at the USPTO, printed with its USPTO number and its owner. If a register query fails, the search fails with it and the charge is refunded. A real report, walked through section by section.
Every search needs the goods or services as well as the name, because a registration only reaches what you sell.

Yes, and it is free and authoritative for what it holds. It also assumes you know what to look for, and it will not tell you that a differently spelled mark sounds identical to yours or that your name merely describes what you sell.
A knockout search is a fast pass for obvious blockers, meant to kill weak candidates cheaply. A full clearance search is broader and is read by an attorney who assesses the risk. The $2 search here is a knockout search.
