A precise first-pass filter. Built for professionals.

Avanti Notum runs fast, scored searches across the UK register, showing the raw phonetic, visual and conceptual scores, a full audit trail, and API access. It is a pre-screening tool, not a clearance service, and it is priced like software, not like an enterprise platform.

Preliminary screening shouldn't cost you 45 minutes

Full clearance is skilled work and it takes time — 2–4 hours per mark on the enterprise platforms. But a meaningful slice of that time is preliminary screening: establishing whether a mark is plainly clear, plainly conflicted, or a genuine close call. That triage does not need a fee-earner's full judgement. It needs a fast, reliable filter.

The enterprise platforms can do it — at £400–1,000-plus a month, for global coverage a small practice handling 10–20 marks does not use. The free IPO search is not built for professional throughput. Avanti Notum sits between the two: a precise first pass that hands you the close calls and lets your associates start the real work sooner.

Each dimension, scored and visible

Avanti Notum scores every result across the three dimensions of similarity assessment — phonetic, visual and conceptual — and, importantly for professional use, it shows you each score individually, not just an aggregate:

Phonetic similarity

Sound-based similarity, scored with established phonetic algorithms, normalised to a 0–100 score.

The aggregate conflict-risk rating is there for speed, but it never hides the components. If a phonetic score and your own ear disagree, you can see exactly why the tool rated the mark as it did — and apply your own judgement. The scoring is benchmarked against real tribunal outcomes — and we will not publish an accuracy figure until it passes the bar we have set ourselves (see our accuracy page). It reflects how similarity is assessed in practice, not an abstract string metric.

One search, the whole UK register

Post-Brexit, UK protection stands on its own — an EU registration no longer covers it. Avanti Notum searches the UK IPO register in a single query, merging every close match into one ranked list, so you see the complete UK picture without interpreting a raw register dump yourself.

Every search logged, for your records

Avanti Notum keeps a full history of every search — date, parameters and results — for 12 months on paid plans. For an attorney, that is an audit trail: a defensible record of the preliminary screening behind a clearance recommendation. You can bookmark and revisit individual results, and export search data for inclusion in a professional opinion or a client advice letter.

High conflict risk

Results flagged high conflict risk are the close calls that need immediate professional attention. These are included in your search history with full parameters so you have a documented basis for the advice you give.

Integrate search into your workflow

The Enterprise plan includes a documented REST API: search, similarity scoring, Nice class lookup, SIC-to-Nice mapping and report generation, all available programmatically and authenticated with scoped API tokens. For practices that want trademark search to feed their practice management software or internal systems rather than living in a separate browser tab, the API is the route. API access is an Enterprise feature.

For agencies — clear a shortlist before you present

If your work is naming rather than prosecution, Avanti Notum solves a different problem: the embarrassment of recommending a name that turns out to be taken. A naming workshop produces dozens of candidates; checking each by hand is impractical.

On the Team plan, bulk CSV upload screens an entire shortlist at once. You get a scored result for every candidate, side by side, and a white-label PDF report under your agency's branding to evidence the due diligence. You present only clear names — and you remove the trademark check from your project's critical path.

A pre-filter, not a substitute for your judgement

We will not pretend Avanti Notum does your job. It does not. It is a search and monitoring tool. It does not provide legal advice, render an opinion on registrability, or replace a clearance search and a written opinion.

What it does is the preliminary, mechanical first pass — fast, consistent and documented — so the skilled work begins from a filtered, scored starting point. The close calls still come to you. Used that way, Avanti Notum is a tool that respects the distinction between screening and clearance, and so does its copy.
