Independent websites with <em>no apparent federal USPTO trademark registration</em>, at any age.
Local <b>Qwen</b> extracts brand info from each homepage and suggests adjacent sites to crawl; Claude
verifies USPTO live-registration status. Use the year filter to slice by tenure.

<p className="mt-2 text-xs text-amber-800 max-w-3xl">
<b>Age context:</b> <b>5+ yrs</b> = common-law rights established in the brand's market; approach as
lead-gen or acquisition targets, not filings. <b><5 yrs</b> = weaker common-law protection, higher
urgency for the brand owner to file — genuine squatting risk for them and genuine licensing/outreach
opportunity for you.

<div className="mb-1 font-bold text-indigo-800">Abandonment watch</div>
Site live but inactive ≥3 yrs. US law presumes trademark abandonment after 3 yrs of non-use (<i>Lanham §45</i>).
Log + revisit; file ITU (intent-to-use) once the clock runs.

<div className="card border-emerald-300 bg-emerald-50 p-3 text-xs">
<div className="mb-1 font-bold text-emerald-800">Licensing outreach</div>
Active brand, never filed. <b>Don't squat them.</b> Pitch them trademark filing / domain-portfolio management services.
Legit $500–$5k/engagement; recurring if they keep the retainer.

<div className="card border-red-300 bg-red-50 p-3 text-xs">
<div className="mb-1 font-bold text-red-800">Do NOT target</div>
Registered + actively used. ACPA (§43(d)) statutory damages $1k–$100k/domain.
TTAB cancels bad-faith marks on fraud/intent grounds. Keep away.
