What this record means
The record shows that the mark “XAI” is dead and was abandoned by XML SOLUTIONS CORPORATION, a corporation organized in Virginia, after the applicant failed to file a Statement of Use or an extension request following the Notice of Allowance. The mark was held on the Principal Register for class 009, covering computer software for application integration using extensible markup language technology. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, but the specific goods listed create the closest area of concern for any new software or technology product that uses the same name. The prosecution history shows a standard sequence of publication, opposition, and allowance, with no evidence of opposition or enforcement actions. The last meaningful event was the abandonment on September 27, 2001. For someone considering a similar name, the record suggests a moderate risk of confusion in the software integration space, but the mark’s dead status means the owner is not currently enforcing it.
