# NameVerdict

> Six-lane brand-name clearance for founders. Run a candidate product name through domains, USPTO trademarks, common-law usage, Google search results, category collisions, and social handles — synthesized into a GREEN / YELLOW / RED verdict per name with the underlying evidence cited so you can audit the call.

NameVerdict is built and operated by Slick Engineering & Consulting, Inc. (Delray Beach, FL). It exists for the gap between free check-the-domain tools (which check 2-3 signals and stop) and trademark attorney knock-out searches ($400-1,200 per name). Typical buyer is an indie SaaS founder or startup team choosing a name before committing.

## What we check, per candidate name

- **Lane 1 — Domains.** Live RDAP registry lookups across .com, .io, .app, .dev, .ai. Real registrar + expiration data, not third-party scraped lists.
- **Lane 2 — Common-law.** GitHub, iTunes, Reddit, Product Hunt, Crunchbase, Etsy — places real products live that don't show up in a USPTO record.
- **Lane 3 — Social handles.** X, Instagram, GitHub, TikTok availability.
- **Lane 4 — USPTO trademarks.** Federal trademark search via the USPTO TESS database, scoped to the product's Nice class (the 45-category international system that trademarks are filed under — software is class 9, SaaS is class 42).
- **Lane 5 — Google search results.** What Google's first page actually shows for the candidate name today.
- **Lane 6 — Category collisions.** Search results + GitHub + Product Hunt + crypto-token registries — names that aren't formally registered but already mean something specific in the buyer's market.

All six lanes run in parallel per name. Each lane verdicts independently; the aggregate verdict is worst-of. Reports come back in well under a minute and the URL is permanent — no login required, the buyer's email gets a one-line "report ready" notification.

## Pricing

- **Single name** — $39 — one candidate, full six-lane gauntlet.
- **Up to 5 names** — $99 — compare a shortlist; one ranked report covering all five names. Saves $96 vs. five single reports.

## What NameVerdict is not

- It is not legal advice. The synthesized verdict is generated by software. Before adopting a name commercially, especially if our verdict is YELLOW or RED, consult a registered trademark attorney for a full knock-out search and freedom-to-operate opinion.
- It is not a domain registrar — we surface availability but you buy the domain elsewhere.
- It is not a trademark registration service.
