Early brand record
Record Brand Evidence From the Start
Create independently verifiable proof of claimed brand details before you complete federal registration.
What a Provisional Trademark Record Does
A provisional trademark record creates independently checkable evidence of the brand details you claim—before you complete federal USPTO registration. It is designed for entrepreneurs who want a low-friction way to document ownership signals while they prepare for a full federal filing.
This service is for founders who are naming a business, launching a product, or building early brand assets and want a dated record they can point to while federal registration is still ahead.

Important Note
A provisional trademark record is not a federal USPTO registration and does not by itself grant the nationwide rights of a registered mark. USPTO registration outcomes are separate and not guaranteed. The Trademark Company is not a law firm, and this service does not create an attorney-client relationship.
