SOUL

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “SOUL” is live and registered on the Principal Register, owned by Groundswell, Inc., a corporation organized in the District of Columbia. The registration was issued on September 7, 2021 for services in class 035, specifically the provision of cost‑saving energy and water efficiency programs for low‑ and moderate‑income homeowners and renters, including home energy assessments, customized plans, and the promotion of energy and water conservation. A similar name used in these same or closely related services would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give Groundswell control over every use of the word “SOUL” outside this scope. The prosecution history shows a straightforward path to registration with no descriptiveness refusal or Supplemental Register movement. The most recent event is the registration date itself; no further maintenance dates are supplied. No oppositions, cancellations, or other enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the presence of a live, Principal Register registration in this specific service area suggests a meaningful risk of infringement if used in comparable energy‑efficiency or environmental promotion services.
