## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

### TMview Trademarks Scraper

**Scrape trademark records from TMview by name, office, or status, up to a million per run.** Every record includes its Nice classes, applicant, status, and filing dates. No API key or registration required. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.

TMview's official search tool is built for one-at-a-time lookups, not bulk data collection. This Actor reads the public trademark database directly, searching by mark name or keyword, and returns each matching record in a flat, consistent schema. Filter by intellectual property office (USPTO, EUIPO, UKIPO, and others) or by legal status to narrow the results before they reach your dataset.

| Who uses it | What they scrape TMview for |
|---|---|
| IP attorneys and paralegals | Run clearance searches for a new brand name across dozens of offices in one export. |
| Brand protection managers | Monitor who is filing marks similar to your trademarks across multiple jurisdictions. |
| Business founders | Check if a proposed company or product name is already taken before investing in branding. |
| Data analysts | Build a dataset of trademark filing trends by office, class, or applicant over time. |

### What it does

This Actor collects trademark records from TMview by name or keyword and returns each one as a flat row with its classes, applicant, status, and dates.

- 🔍 **Keyword search:** enter any mark name or keyword like "apple" or "tesla" and get every matching record.
- 🏛️ **Office filter:** restrict results to specific IP offices with two-letter codes (EM for EUIPO, US for USPTO, GB for UKIPO).
- 📋 **Status filter:** pull only registered, filed, expired, ended, cancelled, or refused marks.

Results export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML, or straight from the API.

### What you can do with TMview data

**🔎 Pre-filing clearance search.**

A trademark attorney enters a proposed brand name, filters by relevant offices, and exports all potentially conflicting marks to share with the client before filing.

**📊 Competitive brand monitoring.**

A brand manager runs a weekly scrape for their company's core terms across EUIPO and USPTO to catch new applications that might infringe.

**🏢 Applicant portfolio analysis.**

An analyst scrapes all trademarks held by a competitor to map their product pipeline and geographic expansion strategy.

**📈 Trademark filing trend reports.**

A researcher collects all filings in a specific Nice class over a year to identify growing industries and crowded trademark spaces.

### Why choose this scraper

| | What you get |
|---|---|
| **Bulk TMview access** | Collect up to a million trademark records in one run without clicking through pages. |
| **Multi-office search** | Search across EUIPO, USPTO, UKIPO, and other national offices from a single query. |
| **Structured output** | Every record arrives as a flat row with Nice classes, applicant, status, and filing dates, ready for analysis. |

### How it compares

This Actor focuses on one-off bulk keyword searches across all TMview offices, while the competitors below offer complementary approaches like AI clearance analysis or ongoing monitoring.

| Feature | ParseForge | EUIPO Trademarks Scraper | Trademark Watch - EUIPO, WIPO & National Offices (TMview) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Search by free-text keyword | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Filter by IP office code | Yes | Not listed | Not listed |

### Configure the run

Drive the Actor with a trademark name or keyword, and optionally narrow results by IP office codes and legal status. Filters run as each record is read so only matches reach your dataset. The Input tab lists every parameter.

A first run with the defaults:

```json
{
 "maxItems": 10
}
```

A larger pull:

```json
{
 "maxItems": 200
}
```

### Pricing

Pay-per-result: **$0.021 per result** collected. You pay only for the results written to your dataset.

| Results collected | Approximate cost |
|---|---|
| 100 results | $2.10 |
| 1,000 results | $21.00 |
| 10,000 results | $210.00 |

New Apify accounts start with $5 in free credit.

### Free users

Free-plan runs return up to 10 results as a preview. [Upgrade your Apify plan](https://console.apify.com/sign-up?fpr=vmoqkp) to collect up to 1,000,000 results per run.

### Run it

1. [Create a free Apify account with $5 in credit](https://console.apify.com/sign-up?fpr=vmoqkp).
2. Open the [TMview Trademarks Scraper](https://apify.com/parseforge/tmview-trademarks-scraper?fpr=vmoqkp).
3. Set your inputs and any filters, then click **Start**.
4. Export the results as CSV, Excel, JSON, or XML from the **Dataset** tab.

Run it programmatically through the [Apify API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2) (`run-sync-get-dataset-items`) or the [ApifyClient](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js) for JavaScript and Python.

### Use with AI agents (MCP)

Give an AI agent live access to TMview through the Model Context Protocol. Add the Actor to Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http apify "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=parseforge/tmview-trademarks-scraper"
```

Then prompt it in plain language to run the scraper and read back the results.

### Troubleshooting

**Why am I getting no results?**

Check that your query is spelled correctly and is not too restrictive. Try removing the office or status filters to broaden the search. Some terms may genuinely have no matching trademarks in TMview.

**The Actor is running slowly.**

TMview's public interface can be slow for large searches. Reduce the maximum trademarks limit or narrow your query with office and status filters to speed up the run.

**Some fields are empty in my results.**

Not every trademark record in TMview has all fields populated. Missing data in the source means the corresponding column will be empty in your export. This is expected behavior.

**I got fewer results than my maxItems setting.**

The Actor stops when TMview has no more matching records, even if your maxItems limit is higher. Your query may have fewer results than the limit you set.

**The office filter is not working as I expected.**

Use the exact two-letter office codes as defined by TMview. Common codes are EM for EUIPO, US for USPTO, and GB for UKIPO. Check the TMview documentation for a full list of supported office codes.
