Power Search: Find Any Trademark in Seconds

Written by Howard Katzenberg

Power Search is GleanMark’s primary search tool. Search 14M+ USPTO trademark records by mark name, owner, or goods and services — and filter results with faceted drill-downs. No account required to start (signed-out visitors get 5 unique searches per day; create a free account for unlimited searches).

What You Can Do

  • Search by trademark name with phonetic and visual similarity matching

  • Search by owner name to find all marks owned by an entity

  • Search by goods and services description

  • Filter results by status, Nice class, owner, mark type, filing date, and more

  • Sort by relevance, filing date, registration date, owner name, or recently updated

  • Click through to full trademark detail pages with prosecution history

How It Works

  1. Go to Search — Click “Power” under Search in the sidebar, or go directly to /search

  2. Choose a search mode — Three tabs at the top:

    • Trademarks (default) — search by mark name

    • Owners — search by owner/entity name

    • G&S — search by goods and services description

  3. Type your query — Results appear as you search

  4. Apply filters — Use the filter sidebar to narrow by status, Nice class, owner, mark type, TTAB involvement, or date ranges

  5. Click a result — Opens the full trademark detail page with prosecution history, documents, and analysis tools

Search Modes

Trademark Search (Default)

Type a mark name and GleanMark searches using phonetic matching, trigram similarity, and exact matching. Results are ranked by relevance — the most similar marks appear first.

Examples: “Moonlight Coffee”, “BRIGHTPATH”, “AT&T”

Owner Search

Find all trademarks owned by a specific entity. Type an owner name and see their full portfolio.

Examples: “Nike Inc”, “Apple”, “Johnson & Johnson”

Goods & Services Search

Search the goods and services descriptions across all trademarks. Useful for finding marks in a specific product or service category.

Examples: “coffee roasting”, “software development”, “clothing retail”

Filters

The filter sidebar lets you drill down into results:

Search Results

Each result shows:

  • Mark name and mark type badge (Word, Combined, Stylized, Design)

  • Status badge (Registered, Pending, etc.)

  • Owner name (clickable link to owner profile)

  • Serial number and registration number (if registered)

  • Nice classes

  • Goods & Services description

  • Filing date and registration date

Click any result to open the full trademark detail page.

URL Sharing

Search results are URL-encoded. Share a search by copying the browser URL — it preserves the query, mode, and all active filters. Example: /search?q=moonlight+coffee&mode=trademark

Tips

  • Use Owners mode for competitive research — type a competitor’s name to see their full filing portfolio

  • Filter by TTAB = Active to find marks currently involved in opposition or cancellation proceedings

  • Combine date filters — “Filed in last year” + “Status = Pending” shows recent applications still under review

  • Signed-out visitors get 5 unique searches per day — re-running the same query doesn’t count against your limit. Create a free account for unlimited trademark and owner searches, saved searches, and additional features.

  • Goods & Services search shows a limited preview when you’re signed out — sign in for full G&S results.
