About BrandScreen
BrandScreen is a naming risk checker for startups and product launches that combines legal, domain, and social signals into a single AI-scored report. It screens a proposed name across USPTO trademarks, domain availability, business entity records, social handles, and search competition, then assigns a 0–100 Brand Score with AI commentary. The tool targets founders and teams who want to know how ownable and defensible a name looks before they spend on branding, development, or legal filings. Key Features: Trademark Screening: Searches exact and confusingly similar marks across all USPTO classes so teams can spot potential conflicts early. Domain Intelligence: Checks availability across .com, .ai, .io, .app, and many other extensions with pricing and links to buy. Business Entity Search: Surfaces LLC and corporation filings by state that may collide with a proposed name. Social Handle Search: Reports whether the handle is open on Instagram, TikTok, X, YouTube, and LinkedIn in a single view. AI Brand Risk Score and Analysis: Generates a 0–100 ownability score plus AI risk assessment, recommendations, and alternative name suggestions in full reports. AI Name Generator: Proposes new brandable names that are pre-screened across the same trademark, domain, entity, and social checks. Pros Unlimited free triage: Basic searches with Brand Score, full domain availability, and legal and social summaries are free with no account credit usage. All key signals in one place: Trademark, domain, entity, social, and search competition appear in a single report, which shortens manual research. Clear upgrade path: A simple credit system upgrades a free search into a full decision-grade report when a name looks promising. Founder-friendly UX: The interface is framed around startup naming, with example reports and plain-language explanations. Cons US-centric legal data: Trademark coverage is described in USPTO terms and entity searches are state-based, so non-US brands may not get full protection signals. No subscription billing: Pricing is credit-based only, which may not suit teams that prefer predictable monthly plans. Not a replacement for counsel: The site explicitly states it is not legal advice, so filings still require a trademark attorney.
