SOUL

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “SOUL” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant failed to respond to an Office action. The owner listed is Hanson Robotics Ltd, a corporation organized in Hong Kong, and the mark was filed on July 10 2018 under an intent‑to‑use basis. The goods and services covered are computer software and hardware for artificial intelligence for robots (class 009) and software development in the field of artificial intelligence for robots (class 042). A similar name would raise the closest concern in those two technology‑related classes, especially where the goods or services involve AI or robotics software or hardware. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “SOUL.” The prosecution history shows a single non‑final action and an abandonment notice; no opposition, cancellation, or court action appears, so the supplied history shows no enforcement activity. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status means the mark is no longer enforceable, but the specific AI‑robotics classes remain a potential area of concern.
