What this record means
The record shows that the mark “ANTHROPIC” is live and registered on the Principal Register under serial 98267877, owned by Anthropic, PBC, a public benefit corporation organized in Delaware. The registration covers downloadable computer software and mobile applications that perform generative text AI tasks, natural language processing, content writing, summarizing, question‑answering, and conversational simulation, as well as related electronic publications. A similar name used for comparable AI software or services would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give control over every use of the word “Anthropic” in unrelated contexts. The prosecution history indicates a standard examination path with no supplemental register involvement. The most recent event is the notice of registration confirmation on June 9, 2026, and the next key date is the registration date itself; no further maintenance dates are listed. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the presence of this active, specific AI‑software registration suggests a meaningful risk of conflict if the new use falls within the same or closely related services.
