First impression · read-aloud · recall · open-ended feedback

At least 5 people per customer persona see only your name. They share a first impression, read it aloud, write it down from memory a few minutes later, and tell us what they think in their own words. We record every respondent reading your name.

4 Results + trademark check

4 Results + trademark check

Summary report · results by persona · recordings · suggested improvements · trademark check · debrief

You get a one-page summary report (scores, key quotes, our recommendation), detailed results by customer persona, every pronunciation recording with a breakdown of how people read your name, suggested improvements, and a first-pass trademark check. Then we review it together on a 30-minute video call.

A first-pass trademark check is included. It is a first signal, not a legal opinion. If you decide to file, we’ll walk you through it separately.
