Find the confusingly similar filing before it becomes a dispute.
Dmarkb scans trademark databases, domains and marketplaces continuously for marks that could conflict with yours, and builds an evidence-backed report the moment one appears.

§ 01The gap
Conflicting filings are public on day one. Most are found months later.
Registers publish every application. The problem has never been access; it is reading all of it, every week, against every mark you own, and noticing the one that matters in time to act.
New filings go unread
Gazettes and journals publish thousands of applications. Without a watch, a lookalike in your class simply passes by.
Keyword watches miss near-matches
A respelled, transposed or translated mark does not share your exact characters, so string search stays quiet.
Market discovery comes too late
When a customer spots the copy on a shelf or a storefront, the opposition window on that filing may already be closed.

Bars show each window against a one-year timeline. A conflict found in month six is, in most of these registers, a conflict found after the cheapest route to stop it has passed.
Periods are the standard statutory windows and can vary with extensions and local practice. Confirm deadlines on specific matters with your counsel.
§ 02How it works
One loop. Scan, score, flag, document.
The engine runs the same four steps on every new filing, domain and listing it sees. Nothing reaches you until it has a score and a reason.
01 · Scan
Continuous watch over every source
Dmarkb monitors trademark filing databases, domain registrations and major marketplaces, filtered to the Nice classes you actually trade in.
Trademark registersDomain feedsMarketplace listings02 · Score
Every new mark is scored against yours
Each candidate gets separate visual, phonetic and conceptual similarity scores, combined into one number you can sort and filter by.
VisualPhoneticConceptual03 · Flag
Only what crosses your threshold
You set the threshold per mark. Matches above it are flagged with the specific reasoning, so you see why it surfaced, not only that it did.

An evidence report, ready for counsel
Each flagged conflict ships with a report: sources, capture timestamps, the similarity breakdown and the filing details, in one file.

§ 03Scored, not keyword-matched
The marks that cause disputes rarely share your spelling.
A keyword alert asks whether the characters match. Dmarkb asks whether a buyer could be confused, and measures it three ways.
Phonetic
Sounds identical, shares almost no letters.
Visual
Reads the same at a glance on a label.
Conceptual
Same idea, different language.
Device
A rotated or reworked logo shape.
Exact
The only case a keyword alert catches.
§ 04What the AI actually does
A precise instrument with a clearly drawn boundary.
In scope
- Monitors trademark filing databases, domain registrations and marketplace listings for marks similar to yours.
- Scores visual, phonetic and conceptual similarity, and flags matches above your configured threshold.
- Compiles an evidence report for each flagged conflict, with sources and capture timestamps.
- Tracks renewal deadlines and filing status on your own registered marks.
Out of scope, by design
- File oppositions or applications on your behalf.
- Send cease-and-desist letters or legal notices.
- Decide whether something legally infringes.
Trademark infringement is a legal judgment. Dmarkb reports are built to inform your counsel's decision, not to replace it.
