Brand protection for stores
Find the knockoffs before your customers do
Knockoff finds stolen listings, copycat storefronts and trademark filings that copy your brand name across Amazon, Temu, eBay, Etsy, AliExpress, Facebook, Instagram and the open web. It builds the complete case with archived proof. You sign a Letter of Authorization once, and we file each one as your authorized agent on covered platforms.

How it works
From install to takedown in four steps.
[01]
Connect your store
Install takes five minutes. Your catalog syncs and every product photo is covered from that moment.
[02]
We watch everything
Reverse image search across every marketplace where knockoffs sell. Every match you see is backed by your own photo.
[03]
We confirm it
Every match arrives with evidence: archived page, timestamp, side by side. A match counts only when your own photo is in the seller's gallery.
[04]
We file it
We file the takedown as your authorized agent, then chase the reply. For Amazon photo claims, you send the notice we prepare.
Fully managed
You sign once, we file
Knockoff prepares the exact takedown, signs it, and files it as your authorized agent. You sign a Letter of Authorization once, and you can revoke it any time. For Amazon photo claims, we prepare the notice and you send it from your own Amazon account in about two minutes.
Weak cases are never filed in your name.

Questions
Do I need a registered trademark? +
No. Your product photos are protected by copyright the moment you take them, and copyright claims work on every marketplace. A US trademark registration sharpens your trademark watch and strengthens filings, but it is not required. If the copy lives on a Shopify store, see how a Shopify DMCA takedown works.
Who files the takedown? +
Knockoff files on covered platforms. You sign a Letter of Authorization once, and Knockoff writes and files those notices as your authorized agent. You can revoke the authorization at any time. For Amazon photo claims, Knockoff finds the copy and prepares the notice, and you send it from your own Amazon account in about two minutes.
What does the fully managed plan cover? +
Knockoff prepares the exact takedown, signs it, and files it for you as your authorized agent on covered platforms. You sign one Letter of Authorization, and you can revoke it any time. For Amazon photo claims, Knockoff finds the copy and prepares the notice, and you send it from your own Amazon account in about two minutes.
Can this get my marketplace accounts in trouble? +
No. A match counts only when your own photo appears in the seller's listing gallery, and we don't file weak claims. Your filing history is yours alone, and we treat it that way.
Which platforms do you cover? +
Amazon, eBay, Walmart, Temu, Etsy, AliExpress, Alibaba, DHgate, Shein, Facebook and Instagram, plus copycat Shopify storefronts across the open web. Knockoff also watches TikTok and Facebook for accounts pretending to be your brand.
What counts as a takedown? +
One infringing listing or storefront that Knockoff acts against. There is no monthly cap. Knockoff files each takedown as your authorized agent, except for Amazon photo claims, where you send the notice Knockoff prepares.
What if the copycat re-shot the photos? +
Design clone detection recognizes the product itself, not the photo file, so re-shot, re-lit and AI-generated copies still get caught.
Is this only for Shopify? +
Today, yes. Connect your Shopify store and your catalog syncs automatically. More platforms are coming.

How the takedown process works, what it costs, and what to file first.
Statement of use and intent-to-use: the deadlines, the fees, and what counts as a specimen
Your notice of allowance is a clock and a bill. Six months from the issue date, $150 per class, five extensions at $125, a filled-in example, and the specimen rules that decide whether a Shopify product page is accepted.
The best brand protection companies in 2026
Eight companies compared honestly: who publishes a price, who needs a sales call, and which fits a small Shopify brand.
Instagram impersonation: which report actually removes a fake account copying your brand
Instagram's impersonation form asks for a photo of a person holding their ID, which a company cannot supply. Which of the trademark, copyright and counterfeit forms fits what the fake account did, what each asks for, and what filing one tells the account holder about you.
How to report Etsy shops that copied your listings
One report per design, every copying listing added by URL, and what gets a report rejected.
Copyright vs trademark: which one covers what got copied
Copyright covers the things you made and trademark covers the names buyers recognize you by. Which right covers a photo, a description, a name, a logo, packaging or a product shape, what each costs and takes, which marketplace form accepts which claim, and what happens when you file the wrong one.
How to copyright your product photos
Your photos are protected from the shutter click, and a takedown never needs a registration. Which of the four Copyright Office applications fits a product catalog, what each costs, why a median 1,441-photo catalog registers for $110 instead of $64,845, and the freelancer paperwork most brands are missing.
Common law trademark rights: what an unregistered mark lets you do against a copycat
You never registered the name and somebody is copying you. What use in commerce actually gives you, how far it reaches, which platform forms take an unregistered mark and which demand a registration number, what registration adds, and how long 6,983 use-based applicants waited before they filed.

Bustem review: what it costs and who it fits
Bustem publishes no price and every button books a call. The band its founder published, what its Stripe-verified revenue divides out to, how the homepage reads against the Terms, and who carries the risk when a takedown is disputed.
Red Points review: what it costs and who it actually fits
What Red Points charges, from the $938 a month base plan to the per-trademark and per-marketplace add-ons on its own checkout, what its two very different review populations are saying, and the brand size the pricing suits.
Amazon Transparency: what it costs and when it is worth it
Amazon charges $0.05 a code and nothing to enroll. The label and the hand that puts it on every unit cost more than the code. The all-in bill at 1,000 to 200,000 units a year, in two lanes, and the cases where enrolling is the wrong move.
Amazon Project Zero vs Transparency: which program you actually need
Transparency puts a paid code on every unit you make. Project Zero hands you a free takedown button, by invitation only. What each one costs, the 22 versus 10 country gap, and the failure modes brands report.
