Search live trademark records and check deadlines by asking ChatGPT

Signa gives ChatGPT live trademark records from 11 offices. On its own, ChatGPT has no connection to a trademark register, so nothing it says about a name has been checked against one. With Signa connected, questions about a name, an owner or a deadline are answered from office records, with application numbers and dates you can verify at the office itself.

Today Signa connects to ChatGPT as a custom connector, which needs a ChatGPT plan with MCP connectors enabled. A listing in ChatGPT’s app directory is on the way.

It is a search of register data, not a clearance opinion. Unregistered marks are in no register, Signa returns no office filing fees, and a trademark attorney should make the final call.
