Check UDRP and trademark risk before you buy a domain
A UDRP complaint is a trademark holder's petition to take a domain from its registrant. One search shows the live US marks behind your keyword, whether holders in that space have actually filed disputes, and how exposed the name is.
- Live US trademark records, matched against your keyword
- WIPO UDRP decisions, linked to the full ruling
- Recent filings whose matching domain is still free

Example result
14 live trademarks contain "solar". Branded combinations carry real UDRP exposure — generic uses are defensible.
What one search returns
A risk verdict you can act on, the marks behind it, whether holders in this space have actually filed disputes, and who just filed and still needs a domain.
Sample result for the keyword "solar". Live searches cover United States trademark records and WIPO-administered UDRP decisions.
Know the risk before the money moves
What UDRP risk means when you buy a domain
A domain that reads as someone's brand can be taken from you through a dispute, whatever you paid for it. We show the live US marks containing your keyword, their status and goods classes, and the WIPO decisions holders in that space have already won or lost — so you can tell an enforced namespace from a quiet one.
Run a trademark clearance check on any name
One search returns every live, pending and dead US mark matching your keyword, bucketed by status and class, with a 0–100 conflict score built from mark count, class overlap and registration strength. Dead and expired marks are separated out, so a lapsed registration never reads as a live conflict.
Find companies that just filed and need a domain
A trademark application is a company committing to a brand. When one filed in the last 180 days still has no matching domain, it surfaces as a buyer signal — scored on filing recency, how many matching names are free, and the applicant's filing history — with a draft outreach email attached.
What this covers, and what it doesn't
United States trademark records only, matched as a substring of the wordmark — no phonetic, design-mark or EU coverage. Dispute history is WIPO-administered UDRP cases, not every provider. Watchlist keywords are re-checked once a day and alerts arrive in the dashboard, not by email. It is information for a buying decision, not legal advice.
Not brand monitoring, and not a clearance opinion
Three different jobs that get confused with each other. This one sits before the purchase, when you still have the option of walking away.
| Brand Monitor | Trademark Monitor | Clearance search | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Answers | Is someone abusing my brand? | Will this domain get taken from me? | Can I register this mark? |
| Direction | Watches domains registered near a name you own | Checks a name you are about to buy against existing marks | Full legal opinion before a filing |
| Output | Alerts on lookalike registrations | A 0–100 risk score, the marks behind it, and UDRP history | An attorney's written assessment |
| Turnaround | Continuous | Seconds | Days to weeks |
| Use it when | You own a brand worth defending | You are deciding whether to buy a name | You are committing to a brand |

Check a domain before you buy it
A UDRP complaint arrives after the purchase, not before it. Three free searches are enough to find out whether the name you want sits in an enforced namespace.
Run a free checkInformational, not legal advice. Trademark law is complex and outcomes depend on specific circumstances — consult a qualified trademark attorney before significant investment decisions.
