## The answer, as recorded

> Here's how I'd actually approach it, roughly in the order I'd spend money.
> 
> ## Start free (genuinely worth doing first)
> 
> **1. USPTO's own tools + Trademarkia's free alerts.** Before paying anyone, set up free monitoring of new federal filings. Trademarkia lets you search and track when owners file, abandon, or renew marks at no cost, and the USPTO database is free to check directly. For a single-mark business in one class, this plus a Google Alert on your brand name catches a meaningful share of problems. ([Trademarkia](https://www.trademarkia.com/about-monitoring))
> 
> **2. Amazon Brand Registry** - if you sell physical products anywhere near Amazon, this is the single highest-ROI thing on the list. It's free, requires only a registered trademark, and gives you Project Zero, Transparency, and the newer Brand Catalog Lock against listing hijackers. Enrollment takes a week or two. ([Seller Labs](https://www.sellerlabs.com/blog/amazon-brand-registry-2026/), [eDesk](https://www.edesk.com/blog/amazon-brand-registry/))
> 
> ## Paid trademark watch (the core recommendation)
> 
> **3. Markify** - my default pick for a small business that wants real watch coverage. It covers ~190 registers, does fuzz
