NameClear

Check a product name for trademark and same-name risks before you launch.

Problem

Founders finish an MVP, plan a closed beta, then discover their product name may already be trademarked or used by an existing product. Reading multiple national trademark databases and classes by yourself is confusing and slow.

Solution

Enter a name and automatically search major trademark registries and software product directories. Get a risk level, a list of identical or similar marks, relevant classes and a recommendation on whether to rename. Results are shareable.

Users

Indie developers, small teams and founders about to launch on app stores or their own domains.

MVP

Enter a product or brand name; query major trademark databases and product directories; show count and status of identical/similar marks; assign a risk level; export a shareable PDF.

Revenue

Free for 3 checks; $5/month for unlimited checks plus monitoring alerts; referral commission to trademark lawyers.

Why now

Shipping cadence for indie products keeps accelerating while trademark literacy stays low. Public trademark data and scrapeable directories make it feasible for a lightweight tool.
