Current coverage

Know exactly what Preflight checks.

Each source answers a bounded question. Nothing outside that boundary is silently inferred.

Global verification network

Coverage is shown territory by territory.

Like a network operator, UNCLMD names where a signal is active, partial, awaiting access, awaiting a local index, assisted or prohibited. Access and indexing are separate gates; a roadmap source is never counted as live coverage.

EXTENDED TRADEMARK REVIEW

No similar-name, class, EUIPO, international or legal clearance.

NATIONAL COMPANY REGISTRIES

France is active, GLEIF adds a global LEI layer and SEC covers US public filers; other national registers remain outside the completed coverage.

OTHER APP STORES

Apple’s US storefront is active in Deep. Google Play and other stores are not covered.

GENERAL WEB

No exhaustive search of the open web beyond the named sources.

DEMAND

No market demand, audience or commercial validation.

LEGAL OPINION

No legal advice or guarantee of registrability.

A missing result is not an opening

COMPLETE

The expected source query returned a usable state.

PARTIAL

Only part of the expected source response was usable.

UNKNOWN

The run cannot support a conclusion for this area.

NOT CHECKED BY THIS PREFLIGHT

This analysis did not run that source, so it makes no claim about it.

United States boundary

Need to check a US trademark?

Quick Preflight does not query the USPTO. Use the official USPTO Trademark Search system for a separate federal search. Search exact and similar wording and review related goods or services; a database result is not legal clearance.

Opening the official search leaves UNCLMD. Your candidate is not inserted into the USPTO search or sent there by UNCLMD.

Ruled out, on the record

WIPO Global Brand Database

Its terms name automated querying, bulk acquisition and resale or sublicensing as prohibited. A paid report cannot be built on data it is not allowed to carry.

Google Play catalogue search

The Android Publisher API exposes apps owned by the caller, not a public search by name. No API path to this exists today, and scraping is not a substitute we use.
