Markmonitor Inc. is an American software company founded in 1999 that develops software intended to protect corporate brands from Internet counterfeiting, fraud, piracy, and cybersquatting. Headquartered in Boise, Idaho, it also develops and publishes reports on the prevalence of brand abuse on the Internet. Acquired in November 2022 by Newfold Digital, it was later announced that the firm would be sold to Com Laude, a company owned by PX3 Partners. On January 12, 2026, it was reported that Com Laude completed its acquisition of MarkMonitor. Founded in 1999 in Boise, Idaho, MarkMonitor was initially a service provider for the protection of corporate trademarks on the Internet. Then, within two years, it gained ICANN accreditation status for domain registration and acquired a domain management business called AllDomains. In October 2010, Markmonitor acquired an anti-piracy company (DtecNet) and was itself purchased by Thomson Reuters' Intellectual Property & Science business in July 2012. In 2016, it was part of the sale of Reuters' IP division to two venture capital firms, under the new parent company Clarivate Analytics. In 2022, Clarivate announced that its subsidiary had been sold to Newfold Digital, a web and commerce technology provider backed by the Clearlake and Siris groups. After announcing it would buy MarkMonitor for an undisclosed sum, domain registrar Com Laude completed the transaction in January 2026.
