WHY MARKSENTRY EXISTS
Built for small teams that can't watch every source.
MarkSentry turns new trademark filings, design-patent grants, and look-alike domains into evidence-backed alerts a founder or lean team can review quickly.
Brand risk appears in different places.
A trademark filing, a newly granted design, and a look-alike domain each require a different source and a different matching method.
One calm evidence workflow.
Each watch keeps the public record, MarkSentry's rationale, timing context, and your decision separate—so you can act without decoding a technical feed.

Show what is known.
Public-source facts stay distinct from MarkSentry's inference.
Prove the work ran.
A quiet day still leaves a stored receipt showing that the watch ran.
Say what is not covered.
Validation and research are named as such; they are never sold as live.
COMPANY RECORDThe name, operating history, and company record
A maker's mark was always more than a logo.
A mark is older than trademark law. Before it meant a registered word or logo, it meant the cut a smith stamped into a blade, the potter's thumbprint in the glaze, or the signature a builder left in stone: proof of whose hands made a thing, and a promise about what it was worth.
We use that older idea as a brand metaphor, not as a claim that every identity cue is legally a trademark. A name, a registered design, and a domain can each carry the recognition a business has earned. They also surface in different public sources, on different cadences, with different routes for action.
Start where the signal is public and the timing matters.
MarkSentry began with new federal trademark applications. Today it also watches newly granted U.S. design patents and newly delegated domains. Each watch earns its live status only after its own source, matching method, evidence, and alert path have been validated.
The platform can widen without blurring those differences. One workspace gives each watch the same disciplined shape: the source record, MarkSentry's triage, your decision, and a receipt that shows the watch ran even when it found nothing worth alerting.
Who operates MarkSentry.
MarkSentry is operated by HD PREMIER INC, a Delaware corporation. The same entity is named in the Terms of Service and the Privacy Policy, and it is the copyright holder named in this site's footer.
The service has been running since , the day the free scan, the daily Trademark Watch, magic-link sign-in, and the dashboard first shipped. Each watch that has gone live since then has a dated customer-facing launch entry in the public changelog.
Hosting, the database, and stored evidence run on Amazon Web Services; payments run through Stripe. What is controlled and what is not yet is set out on the security page. Write to legal@marksentry.ai about the business or your account, or to security@marksentry.ai to report a vulnerability.
