A Copycat Can File Against Your Brand Without You Ever Knowing – Until It's Too Late.
The Trademark Journal is published every week. Without a watch service, a conflicting mark can slide through the opposition window and get registered while you are looking away. 52 weekly Trademark Journal scans per year · Alert on every conflicting new filing · Attorney preliminary assessment of each match · Dedicated case coordinator · Annual summary with all alerts.
Your primary trademark – your brand name, your core product name – must be watched without a gap. It is the single most valuable IP asset in your business. A conflicting mark that slips through the 4-month opposition window without detection can create legal complications, marketplace disputes and enforcement costs that far exceed years of watch subscription fees.
Every week for a full year, the Trademark Journal is scanned for new filings that could threaten your brand. You receive an alert, an attorney assessment, and a recommended next step for every match found.
Each trademark subscribed separately at ₹8,400 per year per trademark – same all-inclusive plan.
Every week for 52 weeks, four distinct actions are taken to protect your trademark. Here is exactly what your ₹8,400 annual subscription delivers, week after week.
Every issue of the Trademark Journal is scanned the week it is published – covering all new trademark filings, all classes, word marks and device marks. No issue is skipped. No week is missed. 52 complete scans per year.
When a potentially conflicting filing is identified – similar word, similar sound, similar device, or same class – you receive an alert email immediately. No waiting. No monthly batching. Alert sent the week it is detected.
Every flagged match is reviewed by an IP attorney for word similarity, phonetic similarity, device similarity, and class overlap. Not a software match – an attorney-assessed evaluation of whether the filing poses a genuine threat.
With each alert, you receive a clear recommendation: file a formal opposition, send a legal notice, or continue monitoring. Your dedicated case coordinator guides you on the most appropriate action for your brand's protection strategy.
Every component of the Watch service is included in one annual payment of ₹8,400. No per-alert charges. No hidden add-ons.

One subscription. 52 weeks of continuous brand protection. From onboarding to annual summary – managed by our platform team throughout the year.
Purchase the annual Watch subscription and complete payment. Our case coordinator contacts you immediately to onboard your trademark. You provide your trademark details – mark name, application or registration number, class of goods/services, and any known similar marks you are already aware of. Your trademark is added to the active watch list and weekly monitoring begins from the current Trademark Journal issue.
Every week, the Trademark Journal is scanned for all new filings that could conflict with your mark. When a potentially conflicting filing is identified, you receive an alert email immediately – with the conflicting mark details, the filing information, and an attorney's preliminary assessment of the similarity. If the week has no conflicts detected, no alert is sent. Simple, clean, and actionable intelligence every week for 52 weeks.
Every alert comes with a clear recommended next step from the attorney assessment – file a formal opposition, send a legal notice, or continue monitoring. Your dedicated case coordinator is your single point of contact to discuss the alert and coordinate the right response. At the end of your 12-month subscription, you receive a comprehensive annual summary of all alerts raised, assessments completed, and actions taken – a complete brand surveillance record for the year.
The cost of not watching is dramatically higher than the cost of watching. Here is the real comparison.
Any brand that has filed for or received trademark registration is at risk. The Trademark Journal is published every week – and so is the risk. Here is who needs active watch.
Online marketplaces move fast. A competitor or reseller can file a similar mark and use it to list products under your brand identity. Early detection prevents marketplace disputes and brand dilution before they escalate.
If your trademark is registered in a competitive product category – FMCG, apparel, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, tech – the risk of similar filings is high. Weekly watch ensures you catch conflicts in the 4-month opposition window before it closes.
Early-stage brands are vulnerable. A copycat can file a similar mark, get it registered, and then challenge your brand's use. Watch gives startups the same level of brand surveillance that large enterprises maintain – at an affordable annual subscription.
Even while your application is being examined, copycats can file similar marks that could be cited against yours. Watching during the application stage helps you identify and act on conflicting filings before they create objections in your own examination.
Brands with trademarks in multiple classes need surveillance across all their marks. Watch subscriptions per trademark ensure complete multi-class coverage at a predictable annual cost per mark.
In-house legal teams and IP counsel who need regular, attorney-assessed conflict alerts without maintaining in-house monitoring capacity. Our watch service delivers attorney-vetted intelligence at a fraction of the cost of dedicated IP surveillance staff.
52 weekly scans. Attorney-assessed alerts. Dedicated case coordinator. One fixed annual price. No per-alert charges.
Every single Trademark Journal issue published during your 12-month subscription is scanned. No batch processing. No monthly sweeps. Weekly scanning means the 4-month opposition window is always covered.
Every potential conflict flagged is reviewed by an IP attorney for genuine similarity – word, phonetic, and device similarity assessed by a professional, not just an algorithm. You receive alerts that matter, not noise.
Every alert comes with a clear next step – oppose, send a notice, or monitor. You never receive an alert without knowing what to do next. Your case coordinator guides you through each response.
