Problem
Brand owners face the constant challenge of detecting counterfeits and unauthorized use of their intellectual property across numerous online marketplaces, social platforms, and websites. Manual monitoring is time-consuming and often misses infringements until they have already spread, making enforcement reactive and costly.
Solution
Unvelar provides an automated brand protection platform that continuously scans the web for potential IP infringement and organizes findings into actionable cases. The detection engine analyzes matches across four dimensions—visual likeness, concept and style, pixel comparison, and wordmarks—to catch different types of similarity. Each potential infringement arrives as a reviewed case with evidence attached, including seller information and listing details, ready for takedown notice preparation. The platform also offers pre-release IP clearance, allowing teams to check new designs and assets against a library of more than 200,000 protected references before they go to market.
Target Audience
Primary customers are in-house legal and IP teams at brands, as well as law firms that protect client trademarks, copyrighted works, and registered designs across online channels.
