Brand Protection
Detect and stop counterfeit activity before it spreads across marketplaces.
We combine monitoring, investigations, takedowns, and legal enforcement to protect your intellectual property and restore control of your distribution channels.

- $2 trillion counterfeit market globally
- 15 million fake goods seized by Amazon in 2024
- Revenue loss, customer trust erosion, regulatory exposure
- 58% of enterprises already use monitoring tools
- 25% of SMEs cite cost as the barrier to entry

FAQs
Brand protection covers monitoring, detecting, and removing counterfeit products, unauthorized sellers, and trademark violations across marketplaces, social media, and the open web. It's how you control your brand's story - your pricing, your reputation, your customer trust.
The cost depends on scope, risk profile, and the enforcement model. Axencis's TRO performance partnership requires no upfront investment: costs are covered by assets recovered from counterfeiters, with clients receiving the majority of recovered funds. Standard takedown and platform enforcement services use monthly pricing based on scope and volume.
AI-driven takedowns use automated systems to flag and remove listings at scale. Human-verified takedowns involve a trained analyst reviewing each flagged listing before any enforcement action is submitted.
Common indicators include unexplained customer complaints about product quality, unfamiliar sellers appearing in search results for your brand, and unauthorized marketplace listings. A brand protection audit scans major marketplaces, social media platforms, and the open web to identify active counterfeit operations.
Legitimate sellers are protected through verification protocols before any legal action proceeds. Our analysts cross-reference flagged sellers against your authorized distributor database and approved seller lists.
Our partners/clients also have full transparency through our dashboard, maintaining full control over their enforcement efforts.
Most brands see their first takedowns implemented within the first week of engagement. Meaningful reduction in counterfeit availability typically becomes visible within 30-60 days. Legal enforcement actions (TROs, asset seizures) typically produce results within 60-90 days, depending on jurisdiction and case volume.
Yes. We maintain established relationships with Amazon's Brand Registry and enforcement teams built over years of collaboration. Our consistently high submission accuracy has established credibility with Amazon's review processes, resulting in expedited processing times and elevated approval rates for enforcement actions. This institutional trust translates to more effective enforcement outcomes for clients operating on Amazon's marketplace.
Takedowns remove individual listings from marketplaces. They're fast, but the same seller can relist under a new account within days.
Legal enforcement (TROs, asset seizures, cease-and-desist) targets the sellers and corporate entities behind the accounts, creating consequences that deter repeat offending. The most effective programs use both strategies.
Identify active counterfeit listings using your brand across marketplaces, social media, and the open web. Axencis’s initial audit provides a clear view of current threats before you commit to any enforcement program.
