Trademark Application Template for a SaaS Brand

Standard goods/services list for class 9 + 42 SaaS trademark filings.

trademarksaassoftwareclass-9class-42

When to use this template: Use when filing a wordmark or logo for a software/SaaS product. Almost every SaaS files in classes 9 (downloadable software) and 42 (SaaS services), and the USPTO has standard ID Manual entries for both -- this template uses them so you avoid the most common rejection (vague goods/services).

# Trademark application: [BRAND NAME]

## Mark
[BRAND NAME] -- [wordmark | standard character | stylized logo]

## Filing classes
- **Class 9** (downloadable software)
- **Class 42** (SaaS services)

## Goods / services description (Class 9)
> Downloadable computer software for [specific function, e.g. "managing customer relationships", "tracking inventory", "scheduling appointments"]; downloadable mobile applications for [same].

## Goods / services description (Class 42)
> Software as a service (SAAS) services featuring software for [same specific function]; providing temporary use of non-downloadable software for [same].

## Specimen guidance
- For Class 9: a screenshot of the download / install page showing the mark adjacent to the download button.
- For Class 42: a screenshot of the SaaS web app showing the mark in the header AND a URL bar with the live domain.

## Filing basis
- [ ] 1(a) -- in use in commerce (preferred)
- [ ] 1(b) -- intent to use (Statement of Use due within 6 months of NoA)

## Notes
- TEAS Plus ($250/class) is cheaper if you use ID Manual entries verbatim. The descriptions above are pre-vetted.
- Your specimens MUST show the mark IN USE for the goods/services -- a marketing page or pitch deck is not a specimen.
