How we handle trademark data

Signa brings trademark records from official registers into one dataset you can search and query. These pages explain where the data comes from, how fresh it is, and how to get it corrected.

Isometric drawing of Signa's record system: four office feeds (USPTO, EUIPO, UKIPO and WIPO) pass through a normalization head into a record store, then an event tray, a search index and an API console.

From an office feed to an API response.

  1. 01Offices. Records arrive from each official register.
  2. 02Normalize. Fields are mapped to one common shape.
  3. 03Records. The canonical record is stored.
  4. 04Events. Each change is published as an event.
  5. 05Index. The search index is updated from the record.
  6. 06API. Queries read the index, not the offices.
  1. 01

    Shown as the office reports it

    Every record comes from an official trademark office. We never edit what the register says.

  2. 02

    Grouped, not rewritten

    We group owner-name spellings and subsidiaries into one company, and show how we got there.

  3. 03

    Easy to correct

    If something is wrong, tell us. We check it against the source and fix or flag it.
