## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-09-24 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> ## Start free - this covers most small businesses
> 
> **Amazon Brand Registry** (free, requires a registered or pending trademark) - if you sell physical product, this is the single highest-leverage thing. It unlocks automated listing protection, and Project Zero for self-service counterfeit takedowns once your reporting accuracy is high enough. Nothing paid replaces it.
> 
> **USPTO status alerts + Google Alerts on your mark and common misspellings** - free, and catches the loud stuff. Google Alerts is noisy but genuinely finds copycat sites and marketplace listings.
> 
> ## Paid trademark watch, in the order I'd try them
> 
> **Markify (now part of Questel)** - my default recommendation for a small business. It's the accuracy leader on fuzzy/phonetic matches, which is the whole point of a watch service (exact-match watching is worthless - infringers don't use your exact spelling). Their domain-name watch runs about $29/year per brand across gTLDs and 200+ ccTLDs, which is close to a no-brainer; the full trademark register watch costs more.
> 
> **Trama** - best value if you want watch *plus* a human to tell you what to do about a hit. Plans start around $20/month for trademark register + business r

Answer Watch records what one AI answer engine said on one date, nothing more. Each page names the engine and the model, carries the date the question was asked, and lists the brands that appeared in the answer in the order the engine gave them, with the sources it cited. It is a measurement, not a ranking, not a recommendation and not a claim about the world. Brands that did not appear in an answer are not named on any public page.
