Business name check
See whether domains and the Telegram username are free for your name, find trademarks in force in Russia and open the official worldwide searches in one click.
How to check a business name
Check the name before the logo, the signage and the ads: renaming a working business costs more than all of them together. Here it takes a minute, free and without sign-up.
Domains
We check the main spelling in .com, .net, .org, .io, .co, .ai, .app, .dev, .store and .online, and other spellings, such as the hyphenated one, in .com. Whether a domain is taken is checked through DNS and the zone registry over RDAP. For a taken domain we show when it was registered and until when it is paid: if the term is about to end, the domain may become free.
Type a ready domain, for example ordify.io, and we will check exactly that one and suggest free options next to it if it is taken.
Telegram username
We look at the public t.me page and at Fragment, the marketplace for short usernames. Telegram has no open check for third-party services, so for a free username we say “looks available”: it may belong to a hidden account.
Trademarks
The most important part. We search the Russian register (Rospatent) automatically: marks with the same word and, after you pick a business area, similar-sounding marks in its Nice classes. The register includes international registrations under the Madrid system that are protected in Russia, so it matters if you sell there or plan to.
For other countries we link to the official free searches: TMview for the EU and 80 more offices, the WIPO Global Brand Database, the USPTO for the United States and the UK IPO. These databases do not allow automated queries, so the search runs on their websites in your browser.
Not every match is a problem, only a mark in the same classes of goods and services: the same name can legally exist for a bakery and a car service. That is why each mark we find shows its classes, owner and a link to the register record.
How to read the result
“The name looks available” means the key domain and username are not taken and the Russian register has no mark with the same word. “There are conflicts” means a match was found in at least one place, and the report shows where.
If the name is free, do not wait: register the domain and claim the usernames right away, it costs little. File a trademark application before launch too: priority goes by the filing date. This is a preliminary check: a sound-alike search does not find every similar sign, and the final decision is made by the trademark office, so show the result to a trademark attorney before filing. Logos are checked separately, by image: use the logo check.
FAQ
Yes, free and without sign-up. To avoid overloading the registers and services we query, one address can check up to 20 different names in 10 minutes. Checking the same name again does not count.
The main spelling in .com, .net, .org, .io, .co, .ai, .app, .dev, .store and .online, and other spellings such as the hyphenated one in .com. We look at DNS and at the zone registry through RDAP, and for a taken domain we show when it was registered and until when it is paid.
Automatic results come from the Russian register (Rospatent), which also includes international registrations protected in Russia. The main worldwide databases, TMview, USPTO and the WIPO Global Brand Database, do not allow automated queries, so for other countries the page opens their official searches in one click.
The Nice Classification has 45 classes: 1 to 34 for goods and 35 to 45 for services. A trademark is registered for specific classes, and only marks in the same classes get in the way. Pick your business area and we will fill in the main classes; the exact list for an application is chosen by a trademark attorney.
Telegram has no open username check for third-party services. We look at the public t.me page and the Fragment marketplace: if nobody owns the username and it is not for sale, we say “looks available”. It may still belong to a hidden account or be reserved, so the only sure way is to set it in the app.
A domain only secures the website address. Exclusive rights to the name in your classes of goods and services come from a registered trademark. If someone else registers the same mark, they may be able to stop you from using the name even though the domain and accounts are yours.
